54 Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Jesus christ, he sounds like and has the body chemistry of someone who is in the middle of a dog fight in March, with things looking bleak. Would be really worried if I where an Everton fan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Also Everton only have 2 more friendlies, which will be 4 overall. That seem very light for pre-season imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

St1pe Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Lampard throwing players under the bus and shifting blame away from himself in pre-season is something I’d be really worried about if I was an Everton fan.  That said, I hope they’re shit again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Everton fans should be shaking like shitting dogs atm after listening to that. Lampard was looking and talking exactly the same in April and there's something fundamentally wrong at that club, maybe a combination of things going on in the background but they were utterly rank last year and this seems to be merely a continuation of that. Everton fans will have a better handle on it as they know their club better than we do but the whole thing still looks like a car crash waiting to happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffee_Johnny Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 I had the distinct impression that, to use a technical term, Lampard saw his arse towards the end of last season. Doubt the preseason has helped his confidence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt the preseason has helped his confidence.  He's got nothing about him as a manager. Amazing footballer in his day, but he's not a manager. Think he'd be better as a first team coach under a bigger managerial name, but doubt his ego would be satisfied on 2nd fiddle.  31 minutes ago, The Butcher said: Dyche to replace Lampard before Christmas.  Dyche would keep them up if they're in the shit, but he's no visionary or transformative figure. A Bielsa type is needed, which they had in Rafa, but that obviously didn't work out. Wonder if they'd go for Martinez post WC?  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not very often you see a current player digging out recent teammates and managers so openly.    Great read, it’s obvious how much a player like him got out of working under Howe and then when that wasn’t replicated at Watford, he wasn’t happy. He seems an obsessive, studious, workaholic type player, it wouldn’t surprise me if he goes into coaching and would aspire to be another Howe type coach. Watford are a strange club, I hope they stay down, along with WBA they have been one of the most boring of all all-time PL clubs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
