"Analyse the Game Without the Goals and It's Pretty Even" 19:04 - Feb 8 with 3728 viewstonybied

A quality quote from Lampard there! If you take the 6 goals out of our game against city and it's pretty even. What a load of tosh, how does this fraud keep getting jobs?

He does kinda have a point, though. Hard to say we battered them or dominated them or outclassed them. Just more clinical.

I can see where he’s coming from. A weird game really, quite even but they decided to gift us a couple of really poor goals and it was game over. I was a bit disappointed with Coventry, they’re in decent form and have picked up under Lampard, I expected more from them but they made life pretty easy for us today.

Nice to see Clarke and Philogene get on the scoresheet today, they’re going to be very important players for us, especially if we’re relegated. I’d start them both at Villa.

Never felt like we needed to do more than we did, and I don't think we got out of the low gears.

We didn't batter or dominate them but I thought we comfortably contained them and never really felt threatened - they were a bit insipid.

They didn't really show anything up top. Possession-wise and perhaps in fluidity they were marginally better but they were pretty flat and of fairly poor quality when they got anywhere near our goal. We were on a completely different level to them on that front.

You can't win games without goals, it's a bonkers thing to say. You can disregard stats each and every week that would make your picture look much more rosy, it's just Lampard trying to cover up how poor they were.

Obviously it’s a weird comment, I’m just saying I get where he’s coming from. They gifted us 2 really cheap goals and had one disallowed at 1-3 that could’ve changed the narrative a lot. We were obviously the better side and so we should’ve been with the relative line ups.

Hea right in what he says in fairness. We just had better players in the attacking third that punished their mistakes. A game that shows rhe gulf between the top 2 leagues.

I didn’t see the game (kid #1 in a swimming competition, kid #2 in a music competition) but Lampard’s comments are no different to what Kieran’s being saying all season or what I’ve seen on here. ‘In the game, competitive, it’s just the key moments’, etc. It’s true. It’s relatively easy to compete between the boxes. What defines teams is how well they do in the boxes.

Completely took our foot off the gas - we probably had another 2 more levels - it was like watching us against a top premier team. If we get relegated I am actually really looking forwards to games like that again and having the opportunity to see a better starting 11 compete in championship hopefully under McKenna who I believe will stay as part of his plan.

Maybe, just maybe or am I being delusional in thinking a few may now realise the squad we have are a bit better than some would have us believe and whilst we struggle against multi million pound outfits and should in all honesty put up a better performance against the likes of Saints, Brighton, West Ham etc we have been beset by injuries, some not performing to the level expected of them and having made so many changes from last season it was perhaps inevitable we would struggle. But we ain't that bad after all, are we ?

Their defensive mistakes were the difference today.

We deserved the win as we took our chances but they should have done better and also had plenty of opportunities. I can see where he’s coming from.

Cov's MF looked solid Championship. Their front-end was league 1. Their defence was dodgy Championship. A decent midtable Championship side.

Yes, take away our striker, central defenders and goal keeper, ignore our bench, and they were about as good as us apart from gifting us a goal or two.

Or to put it another way, if you take away all the goals we have conceded, we are a top two Premier League side.

Exactly this. This is just people looking for something else to criticise Lampard for, when in reality McKenna says similar (at best more eloquently) fairly often.

I don't disagree that Coventry were in the game but defensively and in attack they were pretty awful, so I think the point he's making is nonsense. More than that though, my OP is concerning the quote about analysing the game without the goals! The game of football is about scoring goals, you can't remove goals from analysis of a game of football. McKenna would not make a similar comment at all! He may state that we were in a game or that we matched a team for quality in most of our game but wouldn't make a comment about taking away something from the opposition would mean we were equals.
