hmm, let me respond to you with all due respect in undermining what Lamp has done because of whatever ass filled reason you have.

Chelsea wasn't strong and needed to build, getting Sarri to do that, an attacking team.
Lost their GK suddenly and forced to get a newbie by RC, then within a year of trying to assilmilate the new manager he leaves. HAZARD leaves, Kante and Rudiger two players that performed last season got injured and struggled with form, leaving Lampard to make use of Tomori a last season EFL player, oh an Chris was injured, Zouma from injury, to Everton, then suddenly starting for Chelsea because Luiz suddenly left.

Alonso injured, lost form and the expectation and fleeting performance of Emerson didn't do any favors, so Cesar goes to LB, struggles to adjust again and then does.

in attack who should Lamps use?, mehn puddits didn't even think Lamps would be top 6 due to mammoth task ahead of him,being new to management and all

RLC and Odoi who gained formed ending of Sarri's injury got injured. So basically all most all the performing players of Chelsea weren't available. Kepa lost the performance, confidence and form he had last season. Well the defenders in front didn't help matters.

ok back to attack, who should he use. Wait Lamps keeps Kovacic, Kofvckingvacic well at the time but Lamp gets the best of Kovacic and finds a way with Barkley.

and there's Mount. Or remember Giroud and Batshuayi my God. Thank God Lamps had faith in Abraham even though he lost the PK that would have won Lamps his first trophy against Liverpool, yet the great Liverpool. Found a formulae to use Odoi, manage Willian and wait for the best of Pulisic and then there were results against Ajax, and other teams pundits and rival fans didn't think we would get to R16 of UCL, yes we lost to Mu in EFL QF but lamp beat Liverpool, Leicester, United to make it to FA cup finals. And Lamps has been in top four for many weeks unlike the rest, especially united.

Kepa and our defense has conceeded at least 20more goals than normal when our defense was bad, now it's worse. Then our attackers weren't scoring even though the team produced high number of chances compared to top teams among top 4 in chance creation. Didn't still get a player in January but made changes to the team to grind up results.

you think real pundits on TV who are obviously not like some clowns, think Lamp has done a great job and should be consider for Manager of the year.

OGs should thank God for bruno.

66 points last season to 66 points this season. If we play a draw or lose to LCFC, then we would have the lowest points in almost 30 years. OMG!

Do you read to understand or you read to reply?

What he meant wasn't that : NO TEAM can defeat Liverpool. But Liverpool of today will win majority of their matches irrespective of who their opponents are in Europe.

Which team will not lose some matches? Nah Holy ghost dey play for them? During Pep Treble sev, they lost a few games. Peak of dem Xavi, Iniesta and Messi.

Even that Athletico tie, if it was a league competition - it will be a 3 points tie. Away loss, home win. I reckon with the argument the guy you quoted is making, the fluidity that a 3 front men of Mbappe, Griezzman and Rashford will give you will be very appealing and satisfying.

I mean those three can switch positions easily, they will guarantee you take-on's, not forgetting the speed.

Nonetheless, if the coach does not want any of that, Rashford will not start.

Well, valid point. Position is good, but we all know that if you can have above 70 points, you are almost guaranteed top 4.

After finishing with 88 points that season, if mourinho was not sacked in December the next season, how many points were we on course to finish the season with? I guess Mourinho was leading United to the Epl trophy before he was sacked in December.

I've never known you to be rational and sensible. Higuain, Zappacosta, Drinkwater, David Luiz, Bakayoko had reasons to be away this season, who did we buy Ephraim? That you're even comparing your coach to Lampard shows how much you rate him. After €214m!
We're mentioning players that were part of your team last year and contributed, you're mentioning these ones? Remove Luiz from that list and call yourself a clown please

Well, Mou would probably have done same (66 points and 6th position). Meanwhile, I was completely against Mou so dont tell me I am indirectly supporting him.

We actually have a pattern and style of play.

Early on in the season it was gbas-gbos as important team plays are injured, out of favor or we don’t just have them.

Olé has been tinkering with the team and counters were the easiest way to score.

In January when Bruno arrived, Pogba returned from injury and Matic earned his trust, we’ve been playing a possession type of football. The sad part is that we seem to have lost that keen edge we used to have when a counter presents itself.

Since January, Ole has been playing with A (possession football; pass out from the back ) and thrown plan B into the garbage. So, instead of goofing goalkicks to a target man upfield, try to win second balls and attack from there, we’ve been inviting pressure on our GK, CBs and DM (all of whom aren’t gifted at quick thinking) by playing out from the back with 5 opponents surrounding them.


“Possession based” football, for me, is too vague. And for what is worth, if you want to give ole the credit for this “possession based “ football, why can’t we use our team B to play it and churn out a good performance? If klopp or guardiola uses academy players in a match , you would still see clearly the pattern—not different from the 1st team. Your mark should always be on a team irrespective of the players to carry it out.


About playing from the back, isn’t it obvious we have not mastered the style?(and we can’t because our coach doesn’t know the core secret to the style ). The defenders you think are fast thinkers are not better than maguire or lindelof. The coach’s tactics make them look elite .

Guardiola lost KDB for almost a year and still won the league. Klopp uses lallana to top strike and nothing changes in their pattern of play.

I am scared to admit Ole’s is using fergies template. Maybe a bit mordernised sha. We will be here.

Mourinho would never have finished with 66 points that season. The fact that you can look back at that season and boldly say that Mourinho would have finished with 66 points clearly shows your bias. Mourinho was on course for a midtable finish.

The players Mou had was good enough to win the league, why does he need more players, why does he want to buy more defenders, why can’t he get the best out of his players bla bla bla were the shout we were busy hearing then.

OGS took over when Utd was 6th, and he ended the season with same position.

Lampard took over a team that finished 3rd position on 72 points GD24. even if he wins his last game, he'd finish on 66 points with a current GD13 and is not guaranteed 3rd position.
sincerely for me as a rival fan, that's progress.

Expert opined that Rashford will walk into the French Starting XI, whereas Martial will not, because Rashford will bench Giroud.

I opined that it’s not true because of the French coach’s style of play, which Rashy doesn’t have the quality required to make the man rethink his tactics. I used Euro 2016 & World Cup 2018 (where things actually matter) to backup my point. If Rashford is to get into the XI, he’ll be looking to bench Griezmann or Mbappe, not Giroud.
