Lambert in, no doubt whatsoever. He was the man last June and he will turn us around. I'm a believer.

I just want to get through this season and reckon we can kick on. Benteke has been a brilliant signing, Westwood superb, Vlaar good for the money, Lowton is good and will get better, Bennett needs to learn but will be ok IMHO. Sylla shows potential, imagine if we had a  bit more money to give him. Even bringing Guzan back, brilliant decision and was big enough to give him a go.

On top of that he's got the crowd behind the team and he's fucked off those that didn't care.

I think he's going to be our best manager for a long time.

saunders_heroes, who would you prefer?

No idea, but I'm not paid to head hunt managers. Perhaps we should ask the man responsible for employing Laudrup at Swansea for a few tips. Just because fans on here can't see further than the likes of Allardyce doesn't mean there's no one else out there that could do a job.

There's no need though, because the one we've got will be fine.

Still an IN for me but i admit it became a margin call after Wigan and Newcastle.

Now I think we are beginning to see what life could be like under Lambert in the long term.  His signings have settled in and if we could ship out the older deadwood, give PL the money to re-invest and keep these players together then i think the futures looking good on the pitch.  It's not like when we had TSM where I felt that unless we got rid it'd just be more of the same next season, under PL i can see a plan, see a team developing, see a structure, see improvement.

Still got to stay up though which is still a massive task imo.  Every game just feels bigger than the last.  I'm feeling quietly confident though for the first time in a long time.

Is that the same Laudrup that the Swansea fans wanted out after a few weeks ?

I'm not sure that I ever claimed that Allardyce was anything of the sort John.
You definitely said that you'd rather that he was our manager. Still stick with that?

If I had to choose yes.  We'll still be bottom three if Wigan win their game in hand.

Well yes but West Ham are only 3 points in front of us now, we're on the up and they're on the decline.

We've just played the bottom two teams, one of whom could have been 4-0 up at half time!

Well Reading beat West Ham and QPR managed to get a draw against them so Lambert is clearly better (winky emoticon)

But were not, and we won

Yeah possibly, but at the same time we could have been 4-1 up against QPR in the second half. Bottom line is we won two massively high pressure games and are on the up.
