  1. I am a big believer in picking a Manager & giving him a decent chance. I actually don't think Everton can afford to fire Lampard right now & I really don't think there would be any advantage in doing it. Whether Lampard would go down to the Championship or wether Everton would want him to is another matter. Lampard just doesn't appear to have a clue about the defensive side of the game & that is a huge liability.
  2. Lampard is in way over his head. He has no idea how to organize a defence !! What were Everton thinking ... They needed a real Manager, not a big name football player with very limited managerial experience.
  3. Yes, he doesn't seem to stay anywhere very long & I don't expect him to put up with Levy for very long either. He tends to take his toys & go home when things don't go his way.
  4. I am very impressed with Palace this season, Patrick Vieira has them playing some very nice football. I like that they don't show any respect to the big teams & just absolutely go for it.
  5. Conte is a top manager, proven at all levels. He is able to get the most from what he has on hand.
  6. It drives me nuts when new managers want to play a system that doesn't fit the existing players ! There has to be some compromise until a manager can bring in the type of player that suits the way he wants to play.
  7. Apparently you have low expectations. I think England have the players to win if managed correctly & it's a shame we have a weak manager.
  8. Gahhh I never said that I was betting on him to lose. I was predicting it !! The fact that we haven't won anything for 60 years has no bearing whatsoever on whether Southgate is a competent manager or not. I think he is nothing more than a well spoken frontman who hasn't had an original thought ever. Will you be happy if Gerrard wins nothing because none of the other managers did.??
  9. Absolutely terrible manager. England will not win anything with him as the boss.
  10. I don't see Brentford being in too much trouble
  11. Yes Burnley have games in hand but the problem is that they have to win them & they have only won 3 all season. The Dyche game plan is to get a scoreless tie.
  12. If they don't get it the first time, the next 399 are just a waste of your time.
  13. That is the beauty of sports, you can't get buy on a reputation !! You need to bring it on a regular basis !!
  14. Lots of clubs will be in for Broja but the Chelsea situation could make deals difficult... I don't think they want Ings back....
  15. Yes I agree but Ings just doesn't seem to fit in at Villa & I don't think he is a Gerrard type player either.
  16. I would be scared to sell Watkins, he's the type of player that could come back to haunt you. I would sell Ings & keep Ollie.
  17. I strongly disagree. I thought he played well. He made some good runs & created space for other players.
  18. The January window is a very difficult one, hard to get every player you want.
  19. There are no easy games in the Premier & as the season progresses relegation zone teams will get tougher & tougher to beat. I bet on football on a daily basis & judging a team by position is the road to ruin ! I do agree that Gerrard needs to organize the team better & definitely do a better job on his subs.
  20. The Premier League is in my mind the toughest league in the world. Managers don't walk in to the Premier & boss it from the gitgo very often. Gerrard will need some time & a couple of windows to make his mark or fail if that is the case. Give him a chance & see what he can do. !! For me his weak spot is his subs, he will need to improve on that quickly but I do see the makings of a top man in him !!
  21. The wheels would have to fall off completely for Villa to be in the relegation scrap & I really can't see that happening. The team has lots of talent & once SG gets them gets them organized they will be fine. There is a steep learning curve ahead of Stevie G because this league is 100 time tougher than the Scottish Premier. He will need to get his subs spot on in the future but I think he is smart enough to adapt.
  22. I really don't understand what has happened to Ollie, he was one of my favourite players last year. I'll be honest, I thought he was the type of player Leicester should be looking at. Makes great diagonal runs and was scoring goals ! For some reason he just isn't the same player this season. Did Villa signing Ings shake his confidence?
  23. I was very surprised when Villa went for Ings & even more surprised when he went to Villa. I just didn't think they were a match for each other. Watkins is one of my favourite players but seems to have lost his scoring touch. I think he is much better suited to the SG style of play

    He interferred with the keeper & that will be a yellow all day long. I don't think it was intentional but he just got himself in a poor position. As soon as you catch the keeper with an elbow its usually gonna go bad.
  25. I got the same comments on DAZN .. Unbelievable !!
