FC Class & Dignity at it again.

On another subject. I wonder when these divvies are going to realise Lampard is a terrible manager.

[JRed]

Letting the city down yet again. Scumbags.

[TheTeflonJohn]

If you read the comments from that thread, a few people saying it was fans from both sides acting like twats and throwing fire works, probably a bit more to it than just Everton fans being out of order

If they had any sense, they'd bin Lampard off and throw everything they can at Pochettino, in the same way they did with Ancelotti, before a Villa or a Leicester pick him up. Doubt they can afford to sack another manager though.

Lampard's PPG as Everton Manager: 1.18
Rafa's PPG as Everton Manager: 1.18



Everton's games before the WC are Palace, Fulham, Leicester, Bournemouth.
If he can't improve his record in that run, Lampard surely has to go.

I heard that Moshi-la is going waiting for Stevie G to be available before binning off FFL.

I think that possibly just shows that Lampard isn’t really doing a horrific job - they’re just utter shite?

[Skeeve]

Imagine if it was Rafa at the helm. They'd be looking to lynch him if he dished this kind of drivel up every week.

On past history, it'd probably end up with them lynching one of his neighbours instead of him.

A little from Column A, a little from Column B?

A lot of them view Rafa as their worst ever manager so fuck knows why they think Lampard is doing a great job. I guess the euphoria from surviving last season still hasn't worn off

[RedBec1993]

Genuinely think they could be in danger again this season. Especially if Leicester get their act together.

Second vid in that thread, and at one point the Geordie kid says "bit dangerous innit". Couldn't help thinking "You wanna try living in your owners' dictatorship"

Hopefully not until it's far too late

Since they sacked Koeman in 2018 the managers usually last about 18-months before they bin them off (caretakers like Drunken don't count) so Frank likely has until late this season before they bin him off.

[Charlie Adams fried egg]

That's the hope. They hated Rafa, they hated Fat Sam, so there was always an undercurrent even when they won a few. But they think he's great and love him because he told Klopp to fuck off. It keeps his shitness under the radar which like you is fine by me.

I know they just kept upping the salary on offer until he couldn't say no, but it still beggars belief that a manager of Ancelotti's calibre ever went near these. 

[Son of Spion]

True. 

I drove past Rafa's neighbours' house the other day and had a little chuckle to myself about the banner.

[Crosby Nick]

Hilarious that freshly back from a suspension, Gordon managed to get himself booked again for a mix of a dive and the aftermath to it. He’s such a spiky little twat. A lot of attitude with not a huge amount to back it up with at the moment.

For some reason they were pissed with Rafa as their goal was finishing in top half, top 8, now that they have Lampard, aparently avoiding relegation for 2 years in a row is a great achievement.

[Son of Spion]

So Rafa's only mistake was not telling Klopp to fuck off.

[rafathegaffa83]

I think they'd need Leicester, plus one of Southampton and Wolves to get going. They're not too far off the relegation zone but GD is working in their favour right now and that pre-WC stretch of fixtures will define their season

[Solomon Grundy]

The difference between Rafa and tory Frank is, they never wanted Rafa, but they chose Frank. So he was and is always going to get more time from their support. As long as he manages to keep them away from getting dragged into a relegation battle, he'll be sound.

[Fromola]

I think that possibly just shows that Lampard isn’t really doing a horrific job - they’re just utter shite?

Yeah but compare the abuse Rafa got from the fans compared to the support Lampard has had. Goodison was completely toxic.

[courty61]

The thing now with Rafa is that 2 of their better players - the Scottish RB and the Ukrainian LB - were criticised to high heaven when it happened and Digne went.

Looks like could be their best bit of transfer business in ages

Proper thick as well. How many yellows is that for diving this season alone? 3? He's racked up 6 yellows in total so far according to FBref so I'm assuming at least half are for simulation.

Anyone with half a brain would realise that having this kind of reputation is going to turn the referees against you and make your life as an attacker a million times harder.

True. Think if you get 10 yellows before a certain time you then get a two match ban don’t you? He seems nailed on to get that. Probably before the World Cup!

And Chelsea where willing to pay 45 mill for him this summer    Sure, buy potential, but he’s not that much potential either, and a nasty little shit to go with it (although that may have been part of the appeal to a club like that).

[kesey]

For the locals..

Has Everton said anything about what they are going to do with Goodison once BMD is done?  What is going to happen to the site and area?

The big question is are they taking the cuckoo clock with them ?

He's Suarez without the talent. Richarlison was the same with his antics but at least has some ability.

Gordon has some talent but he's not that good.

No he's not, he's far, far worse for 'antics' than Luis ever was. His whole mindset is getting into a position where he can dive, obviously the closer to the penalty area the better. I've never seen anything like it. Its obviously been drilled into him from a young age, but I've never seen someone who is literally just looking to dive when he gets the ball. Even the great divers like Ronaldo, Klinsmann, Kane etc, its only a part of their game. For him it seems to define him. Incredibly odd.

I know he's worse. Gordon is one of the worst divers I've ever seen, if not the worst. Richarlison similar. Gordon is unbelievable. A proper manager would have had serious words with him because it's doing them no favours (he's getting booked for diving every week) but Lampards whole schtick is being a cheating prick and clearly encourages him.

[Black Bull Nova]

Coady and Tarkowski were good signings (for them), teams only seem to get 1 or 2 against them. That said they are struggling down the other end and rely on nicking one and keeping a clean sheet.


One or more of those centre backs getting injured and they are toast

Our defence has been our Achilles heel this season leaking goals left, right and centre. Everton’s sterling defence has been nigh on impregnable.

Imagine my surprise looking at the table when I saw we’ve both conceded 12 goals.

And as they don’t score goals you can see their problems on the horizon.

Someone in those replies actually saying they’ve made progress.

They spent a fair bit again last window, although a lot of it was balanced by selling Richarlison of course. Only time they didn’t spend was when Rafa was there, but they think they are making progress, for what they are spending on this team, they seem to be going backwards, it’s incredible. They’ve won 2 games, oh wait, 3, they beat League 1 Fleetwood 1-0 in the League Cup.

The irony I suppose, is the best transfers they’ve made recently have been the ones that cost them nothing or very little.

His aim isn't to get the ball in order to pass it, move it, or score with it. It's just to go down on his arse with it to try and win a pen or set piece.  I bet if players stood off him and didn't even try tackling he'd end up just stopping and looking around with a "what do I do now?" look.

[Lee1-6Liv]

They should have taken Chelsea's hand off when they offered £45m for Gordon. Imagine getting £105m for him and Richarlson

And that's despite parking the bus every game and wasting time at every opportunity.

Also, didn't they supposedly want Lampard for his more attacking football? Their tactics are far more negative than they were under Rafa. May as well have got Allardyce back.

Still can't believe how much Spurs paid for Pigeon Boy. About twice his worth. Glad he's injured.
