Frank Lampard The Tinkering Mess

[sixtiesram]

Rather than slagging off DCFCA as usual, anyone (who's been to most recent games) got an answer to his points?

We are in the top 6 FFS

(and your contribution is as crap as ever)

[ManxRam]

I'm hoping the last three performances coupled with fresh injuries will help Frank identify where we need strengthening. We are lightweight as an eleven and struggle with the more physical sides.

Norwood and Fleck ran midfield yesterday and either would enhance our midfield.

[MadAmster]

Mount hasn't been the same since his injury so DCFCA (never thought I'd post this) has a point but does have the wrong referral point.

Defence playing to order which sees the centre halves either out of position and/or wrong side of their man.

Both full backs double teamed by Sheff U which makes a cross inevitable.

Why play a back 4 against a front 2? Not necessary. It also leaves you short handed in midfield with 3 against their 5......

You’re right Manx. The way opposition players would ‘enhance our midfield’ has been the case for years now and never more so than in our last three matches. Got to be addressed...but January is seldom the easiest time to do it.

Yes Swale sometimes wonder why I bother

[Andy_Faber]

Is it a definite that Anya Buttercup and Thorne are on appearance related deals? I know some of you are more connected than me but that seems a bit too sensitive a bit of contract info to be sure of

[mistaram]

Andy not sure about Butters and Thorne but sure about Anya Its easy to say you can't blame them sitting on their contracts but surely a footballer wants to play I'm no Martin lover but at least he's gone out and tried Just hoping he never comes back

[Manofpride]

Defence and midfield not good enough, hasn't been for years. I know anyone can make a mistake but the number of mistakes coming from our back four just can't go on, time for Pearce to come in and drop either Tomori or Keogh. Hope Frank realises what he needs and hope he can get it!

Pearce worked for a limited time last season and, considering he knew for certain he'd be dropped as soon as he had the slightest of duff games, he did well.

The habit of putting a couple of ounces too little into 'should be easy' midfield passes has been the bane of the team all year, neutral fans I've watched the team with this season have noticed it

[mistaram]

MOP trust your joking about bringing Pearce in Seen him twice recently in the U23 my grandad is quicker than him and he's in a nursing home
