Rampage Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 We are going to play the Man City way but be fairly average at it to start with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you will find Lampard will play it the right way and not just try to score one more than the opposition with no tackling midfielders. Lampard will want a fit side that constantly puts pressure on the other team so they give you the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I am ready to see what Lampard will do and who he chose, without writing any player off yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew I'd seen it quoted! Lampard will introduce because every successful club does it. It makes sense to pressure your opponents so they cannot do the things they want to do. I respect Chris Martin and will be sad to let him go because he always has a good pass in him, but the truth is that it's not just us that stopped picking him. Fulham, Reading and Scotland did too.

Quote Cameron Jerome: "[Lampard] had a brief discussion with us on day one of pre-season [about] how he wants #dcfc to play... Hi-tempo, hi-pressing, lots of energy without the ball and with the ball, lots of possession... Everything based on getting after the ball higher up the pitch" That means not sitting back on our 18 yard box and allowing the opposition possession, waiting to hit them on the break?

Some more 'what's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander' needs considering by some. Not keen on him, did okay under Rowett but think he's over-rated. I would be hoping that Thorne or Ledley or youngster get dibs well before him. *shrugs* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High pressing doesn’t = 11 headless chickens running around the pitch chasing the ball. Huddlestone is one of the best passers of the ball in the league and has great vision to go with it, his lack of mobility may not be an issue with ball winners ahead of him. We’re still in a wait and see holding pattern, I’ve not seen anything to suggest that Martin isn’t in Lampard’s plans yet either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect to see him play an almost sweeper role in a back 3. Almost Coady like at Wolves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
