| Liverpool’s season - perhaps a lesson for Lambert ! 08:57 - Jun 26 with 2564 views | ArnieM |
Liverpool have won the Premier League at a canter : good on ‘em and they really do deserve the crown.
But if ever there was a message for Lambert to take away from this it’s that Liverpool have EIGHT players that have played every single game, (31 games).
So Paul, lets put this rotation crap to bed for the coming season shall we! |  |

Comparing our rabble of sh1te to some of the worlds best footballers/athletes is a bit odd.
That said, as it looks like we are going to be stuck with Lambert next year, I do hope he stops pissing about with the team every week. Or even better, just goes away |  |

Once L1 football does return, it will be really interesting to see how PL reacts, there was plenty wrong with last season . Has he learnt anything from our last campaign and more importantly is he prepared to change? If not, then it will be pretty much the same as you were. |  |

I think it's a very fair point around squad rotation.
What the hell Lambert thought he was doing heavily rotating our side so early, on the basis we 'might play 60 games' was just bizarre. We were winning, if it aint broke etc. Get the points in the bag, get us into a strong league position and cross that bridge if and when it ever came.
Can't help but feel last season really was the best opportunity to bounce back. Certainly can't see it being any easier next time around with Luton and Barnsley in the mix, plus 1 other from the Championship which looks likely to be Hull, Charlton or Huddersfield. Maybe Stoke or Wigan. Plus Sunderland and Peterborough definites. As well as 3 of this seasons playoff sides.
Lambert has completely cocked up his 20 odd months in charge here and the fact he'll get another crack at cocking it up again is criminal. |  |

It was in no way a comparison between the teams abilities , because clearly there is none. My point was Klopp kept a largely unchanged team. So hopefully Lambert will take note , ( we can but hope and pray he does) . | |

My thoughts exactly Clive !
Lambert really did cock it up. It’s unforgivable really , and if he does keep his job there clearly is a God (from Lambert’s perspective ). | |

He wasn't comparing talent, he was comparing the rotation strategies.
Thats not an unfair comparison. |  |

It was clear Arnie that your OP was focused on the consistency of selection. | |

We were looking at Man City and how they rotate their squad and trying to learn from that. Madness.
Play your best team in every league game, if you mix it up in the cups so be it, but when there aren't league games for sustained period then need to keep your main men fresh and firing.
I could tell you Liverpool and Klopp's best team in a heartbeat - and I don';t watch much PL football - I couldn't tell you ITFC and Lambert's and I watch us week in-week out! |  |

You look at the ability in that City squad and you can quite understand why Guardiola does it and is successful at it, he has like for like replacements with high quality. We haven't got that squad depth, so I completely agree play your best available team PL. | |

He's not learnt not to do it after 18 months of being crap in the job on the background of 8 years preceding that being crap at his job. I doubt he'll change. |  |

Also worth saying that most successful teams also just have the one standard tactic / formation, rather than trying something different every few weeks. |  | | |

I'm starting to think he persisted with it as long as he did because he's not a very good football manager. | |

'Every few weeks' would be an improvement on the 'every 45 minutes' that Lambert was running with at one point. | |

Half our players couldn’t climb a flight of stairs without suffering a season ending injury. We will naturally need to rotate more than a team like Liverpool as their players are some of the most elite athletes in the game and so are going to be much fitter/stronger than ours. Maybe I’m being a bit pedantic but feel there are surely better comparisons to be made.
That said I do agree with the overall point that Lambert pissed around far too much with the team. | |

Their players face elite athletes at the peak of their profession - ours aren’t. We should have one of the fittest squads at this level who can handle the ins and outs of a League One campaign. | |

I think that "pissed around far too much" is actually underselling what he did.
Remember that the we didnt have the same starting line up at all in the first 30 games. |  |

Surely that’s the definition of pissing about far too much?
I’m in no way defending Lambert in case it appears that way. I’ve wanted shot of him since the Championship | |

Just saying that I don't think that even 'far too much' is strong enough for his level of fwcking around. | |

The point is that he rotated when he didn't need to.
Yes, look after the players that need looking after, but that doesnt apply to everyone.
Yes Liverpools players are fitter athletes... but they also play in FAR, FAR, FAR more physically demanding competitions, so that argument somewhat cancels itself out. | |

Probably better to take lessons from the team that is running away with the Prem rather than the one that was falling back.
...and there's the fact that Man City effectively have two first teams to call on. | |

At the start of the season it was said that we had potentially two first teams.
I still say many have massively overrated our squad. |  |

Whilst I agree with the sentiment, I'm almost certain that 8 players haven't been ever present for them this season. |  | | |

During his entire time with us he’s failed to convince at any time that he knows what he’s doing. The ridiculous Holy/Norris situation as just one example after the weakest “fight” against relegation in football history. Five. Year. Contract. Ffs |  |
