The Lambert dilemma 16:14 - Oct 20 with 4100 viewsBluefish

There will be lots that queue up now to say keep and some others have been waiting to be able to criticise Lambert but.....me and others have just been pointing out that we have been going way OTT about him. We haven't, despite being unbeaten before today, really been convincing this season in putting the mistakes right. We have ridden our luck a lot of times and still demonstrated some of the same failings. A prime example of the willingness to start a game with Judge and Jackson up top. We need to have a system that works and not just chuck players in to try and fit. Edwards is not a footballer and he is certainly not a full/wing back. Dozzell can not replace Downes and a back 3 doesn't just work by putting 3 CBs together.

We all need PL to be a success here but we shouldn't make him a legend until he has really improved us and we still have a long way to go.

I think he's yet to really get us playing a slick game consistently, and I think that's been pointed out by many people.

So I'm not sure people have been going OTT about him at all.

However, we are top of the league still. So let's not panic.

There's no dilemma is there? He's doing pretty well and we all hope he gets us up. What's the complication?

And he'll probably still leave a centre forward on the bench if we're 2-0 down.

Sadly, there those on here who have been missing their weekly melt down. We’re top after a quarter of the season, with a game in hand.

Only Ipswich fans could bed wet to this extent after one defeat

No need for this, in my opinion.

Lambert's had more credit for getting the crowd up than he has for performances on the pitch. Over the piece, it's probably fair enough.

No one has seriously called him a legend.

You've had a long time to wait this season. Almost long enough to make you look a bit silly.

I think you're wrong there. The handful of people who get so binary over managers and invested one way or the other can easily be ignored any way.

Anyone saying Lambert deserves no criticism today or that we've played brilliantly, likewise.

What we have done is overcome teams week in week out, because that's what good teams do. If anything, this evidence that there is an argument that we are far too good for this division and relegation in the manner it came, should never have happened.

All being said though, it's how we react to this now.

Lamberts been out thought tactically multiple times already this season, and we still play far too much hoofball.

The difference is our squad is head and shoulders above most and thats enabled us to win games.

….say you had anything to do with the banner. You replied to me.

Secondly, I'm not really bothered about what's "OK in your eyes", it's of no interest.

There's truth to that, but it's not that simple is it? Or else we'd have just turned up today and took the piss.

While I don't rate Lambert's tactical ability that highly, he is up against teams and managers that will pack defences, and crunch us at every opportunity. He has still overcome that, and when needed fought back like against Wimbledon.

Really we need to look at the fact that he's shipped out certain players like Emmanuel, Donacien and Kenlock and decided on making full backs an attacking outlet in a league like this. That's worked more often than not.
