'Frank Lampard's Everton'

Recommended Posts

So, after 144 years as just plain 'Everton'  it looks like they'll be changing their name.

There may be an early flurry, but until they get themselves organised, ship out a pile of coasting players and pay a lorra, lorra money for some proper ones the only change will be a more friendly, sycophantic media ... for a while.

2 seasons is probably now considered a long time in football, Lampard is a bright fella, whether he is the right fit for Everton, time will tell. 

They will probably have that new ground bounce as well.

Fair comments. Thing is 97% of managers are considered shite now anyway. It seems to do little to tarnish reputations getting sacked nowadays and improves the bank balance. It will be interesting as managers normally work up to the job they want but he’s had his now. I think Everton is a tough job to turn around.

Massive job for him to take on considering how his last one ended can’t imagine a right lot of patience about the place

hope it works as seems a nice fella and one of the premierships best ever 

Aye. Fan base are tricky one. 80’s were a long time ago. Not sure where Everton belong now. Not a dig at the fans for wanting more but top 8 challenging would be a good season for them I suspect.

They'll finish between 8th and 10th. Like every other season. 

THE most boring club in English football bar none.

Doubt they’ll scrape into the top half.

A very odd appointment. 

It's what the fans wanted. 

Well, the loud & vociferous ones who took to the streets to demand Perreira wasn't chosen & wrote graffiti around Goodison (who'd notice ?) to that affect.

Y'know. The one's who'll demand he's sacked in 12m time.

Another big pay-off they may as well start budgetting for now.

Sold Digne because he fell out with the manager. Potted the manager a week later

Got rid of the director of football too to give Benitez more power then sacked him a month later 

Apparently the DOF didn't want Benitez in the first place   

Proper mess behind the scenes

Lampard will want money, lots of it. Unless they go into huge hock I understand the cupboard is bare.

There's been a few injuries & the dress-wearing striker's bern a big miss but otherwise they're not in good shape.

As Rudy points out he's arrived with 2 days of a window left and a cheque book full of stubs but no cheques left. He clearly isn't their first choice.

They have a few points advantage & SHOULD survive but ...
