When Lambert arrived he promised the massed ranks at Villa Park that he would play attacking, (exciting)? football. What we have seen has mostly  been dross. He has no tactical nous at all, didnt strengthen the dire defence in January, and is getting by on a wing and a prayer. I have no confidence in his ability to win a home match at all. He starts attacking, ie wba and west ham when we are 2 -0 down. Why not attack from the start? Hes clueless and needs to go. Hopefully, Lerner and Faulkner will go with him.

You can, when you put your mind to it, send out an attack-minded team that plays football. You’ve proved you can do it, and when you do the crowd tend to respond. So why don’t you do it more often?

 Is it because he is a bit fick?

Seriously  though it really gets to the nub of the argument doesn't it, exemplified by the contrast between the approach at Liverpool and the one at Everton.
