Samuel Camazzola Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 1 minute ago, Tazio said: I have to say that when he first appeared on the scene I thought he was going to be another Theo Walcott, young, speedy, and overhyped by the English press before hitting a very real ceiling of what he could do. Looks like I was totally wrong though. Yeah, they had Macheda about 10 years ago who showed promise an then wilted away. It's been well publicised about how Morrison was the biggest prospect and is still dotting about various clubs. Looks like there is more to come from Rashford too.

Ribble Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Bit unlucky for Lampard in all honesty, he was never going to turn the job down but could have done with another year or two before going there, then the transfer ban which meant he kind of got a free pass 1st season but had twice as many players to integrate 2nd season which just hasn't worked at all with Ziyech, Werner and Haevertz all failing to really settle.

Taffin Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Shame for Frank, the fans and the club but it really didn't seem to be working. They've got worse and worse and look completely devoid of ideas. At least last season and early in the season they were scoring lots but conceding lots and it was exciting. Now they look like they don't know how to play anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Old Tolbooth Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 On 21/01/2021 at 22:19, Tazio said: This is what most other managers struggle with that Ferguson did very well. People talk about Ferguson’s Man Utd but in reality it was a number of teams he had over the years. Wenger looked like he was going to do it but bizarrely lost the ability to sign leaders in his sides. I also think people are a bit premature writing Liverpool off this season. They’re in the worst run Klopp has had but all the top teams are capable of that this season. I still think the league isn’t done by a mile as it’s so tight at the top. Liverpool are the architects of their own downfall for me, they've had a weak defence now for a long time and done very little to sort it out apart from sign VVD, as soon as he goes out injured, there's major issues. They've known about the injury list for ages and actually done nothing at all to address it, making excuse after excuse to avoid signing someone, when it's very clear that Williams is nowhere near ready for first team action. They've been linked with numerous defenders for the summer, but nothing when they really need it to bolster their title defence, it's criminal! Son will be licking his lips at the thought of playing down that left wing on Thursday night against Liverpool, he could have a field day!

It's a funny one, as Chelsea are usually the most criticised for the hiring and firing approach but unlike the majority of other clubs who also partake in it, Abramovich tends to give the manager an abundance of world class talent to work with so can be a bit more demanding of more instant results. Now you can argue the players aren't always the ones the manager wanted but look at the players Frank has at his disposal and suddenly their recent performances are really not acceptable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
