The Paul Lambert thread - poll reset after our capitulation to Hull

[caster troy]

10 goals in 16 games. If you look at the Premier League and the top flights in Italy, Spain, France, Holland and Germany there are 116 teams, how many do you think have scored fewer than us? The answer is, only 3!

Granada have only 8 goals in Spain, but have played 2 less games.
Atalanta have only 8 in Italy, with a game less.
Hamburger have only 9 in Germany, with a game less.

At least our manager is honest though eh?

That is feckin abysmal .

[Gregorys Boy]

The passing from the back I will stick up for because for awhile we have all complained about Villa not keeping the ball well enough, and in recent games that does seem to have improved, so that is surely a good thing.   Also, sometimes Guzan's goal kicks are not the best and at least it is another tactic rather than just sitting back and trying to catch teams on the counter attack.  The only problem is when we just pass it for the sake of it, and when there is no pace to our games, like at times against Palace first half.

Another stat, if you look at percentage of games that end in defeat, Lambert is our third worst manager of all time with only Tommy Cummings and Dick Taylor losing more than his 47%.

[ChicagoLion]

There are no stats that support Lambert being our Manager except maybe almost half the voters on here want to give him more time, astounding!

Disappointing for Lambert is how much Bertrand has improved at Southampton this season.

With our lack of width, full backs comfortable going forward like Bertrand and Clyne can add so much going forward.

Southampton are currently falling faster than a Malaysian airlines flight so I would hold judgment on Bertrand for now .

Don't forget we have also scored fewer goals than any team in the Championship as well. And League 1, and League 2, and the Conference, and the Conference North, and the Conference South, and the Scottish Premier League, and the Scottish Championship, and Scottish League 1 and Scottish League 2..........

Not very good is it?

Our scoring rate is crap, but all those English league have played more games. In some cases 9 games more. Scottish football is shit, I could score a bunch up there. The only teams to compare to are the rest in our division. And again, our record is crap compared to the rest of our division. Comparing it to other league is pointless as they aren't playing the same sides as us.

Shots on target would be a start

[CJ]

I wasn't trying to make a comparison per se. I was just adding more stress to the fact that our scoring record this season is so shit it's the worst in any league in the UK.

Or even just a shot in the general direction

Great stats, but you do need to get out more

File under 'Blind Faith'. I'd imagine most are desperate to believe in something, anything.

Anyway, the poll was last launched after we'd destroyed the mighty Leicester City where we looked good for more than 20 minutes.
