Lampard

basically all the things pundits, fans and analysts have been saying before the season (injuries, time to gel, needs to find his best team, need a new gk). All these things are now currently happening, as we predicted, yet now people are losing their sh!t.

short memories

but he should be given this season to be judged
------------------
Like Di Matteo? Or Scolari? Or AVB?

why weren't they given such patience by the fans who criticised all 3 of them for performing much better than Lampard has?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
yes they were. nobody wanted RDM sacked. AVB got till march.
Scolari till feb
----------------------------------------------------------------------
AVB and Scolari got til march and feb of THEIR FIRST YEAR. Lampard is in his SECOND YEAR and has performed worse than they did and yet he still has his job,

How does this work?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
you know how, last year was a special circumstance never before seen. You profess to be a chelsea fan so you know why.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's the same shiiit for over a year now. Drop points against some shiiit team because player X makes a moronic mistake. It happens over and over again and yet Lampard isn't to blame.

It's so ridiculous. If this was Rafael Benitez in charge delivering this shiiit, no Chelsea fan would take it.

if it was rafa we'd probably still be blaming the stupid individual mistakes. wtf was kepa and zouma doign for the second goal

It's not rational to be calling for a manager to be sacked 5 ganex into a season. He has had no chance to knit together his squad yet. Its fair to criticise him of course, but he should be given this season to be judged, unless the wheels really fall off at some stage.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I dont get these comments, surely there is a plan in place when you get new players, the way you want to play. Koeman has immediately improved Barca, Ancelotti has greatly improved Everton. Impact is most of the time immediate. If you have found your strongest 11 after 5 games and weeks of training, then you should ask yourself what it is the manager is doing.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You know about our injured players right? And why do you value a sample size of 5? It's irrational and fails any test for significance

Didn't Scolari have Drogba, Lampard, Terry, Cech, Ballack , Carvalho, Essien, Anelka, Cole all in their prime and all probably top 3 in the world in their position?

Not one player in your current squad can hold a candle to as much as one of those players so expecting the respective managers to get held to the same standard is like expecting a standard EasyJet or RyanAir plane flying from Heathrow to Australia at the same speed as a Qantas 787 dreamliner.
