ramit Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Lampard way is better suited for PL than Championship IMO. If we make it up, with Frank at the helm i don't fear relegation. Applying certain tweaks in line with the reality of this division is likely what Frank is attempting to do now. He will get it right, either this season or the next. Am happy to have him as manager. Rowett's ball is effective to a certain extent, but it's nothing for the eye. Am glad he left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Self gratification from the forum saying we told you so. Is it that bad? One person has asked once all season which is better, I haven't seen one person say Rowett.

Alph Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 I'd rather scrape cat turd off my shoes than watch us play counter attacking football against teams that aren't or don't need to attack. Promotion under Rowett would have meant 38 games of parking the bus. Sounds as fun as having an STI Whatever Lampard is it doesn't change the fact that Rowett was a hype job and walked out. A manager that plays ugly football, has a very ordinary record AND is always looking for the next job? Sounds great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if it bothers you that much don't post or read whats posted in this thread? We still debate how we would have ended up had Clough not been sacked so comparing with last season seems fair enough to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LazloW Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 38 minutes ago, Curtains said: No one will so what’s the point. I think the OP’s original point/question was whether the football currently being played under Frank is actually any better than that under Rowett. If my reading is correct, some are saying that Lampardball is either a lot better, or about the same, or not as good and some are saying that they are willing to give Lampard time to get better, or he’s doing great leave him alone or that they are already asking questions about his tenure. I agree the general sentiment is that we don’t want to return to Rowett, but opinions on Frank’s style seem fairly mixed TBH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 From my diary of March 3rd last year. Derby win 3-0 at home. Huddlestone scores his 1st goal for Derby, who have now gone 11 games without defeat, and conceded only 3 goals in the last 13 games. Crude but effective. Where did it all go wrong?

It certainly was to start with, but do we still think so? Frankly since probably the end of November our play style has been quite dire at times.Last night was almost typical of recent matches (perhaps a bit worse) no shots on target, just 2 corners, pathetic pass completion (74%). Several games have been like this. It feels like we haven't really progressed this year. i gave you the ha ha emoji , because this is a joke, isnt it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure Frank knows it too and will be trying to figure out how to halt it/reverse it. But you keep your head up your bottom and ignore it, and hope it goes away why don't you! ?
