FIFA 21 predicts a 2-1 defeat, I’m afraid. Ziyech puts them in front, Jack equalises with a brilliant solo goal after 79 minutes but in the 94th minute (despite only 2 minutes being added on) Giroud nods home the winner from a corner. Martinez saves a first half penalty.
Maybe Lampard isn’t all that, talks a good game but I just can’t help thinking there is a touch of “I am Frank Lampard and therefore I am a great manager”

I thought he completed bottled the play off final against us when at derby. They’d just put in a great performance at Leeds, he then went over cautious and decided to play without a recognised striker against us. I also think he was far too cautious in the cup final against arsenal earlier this year. He’s been handed a relative silver platter with no real evidence to suggest he’s got what it takes managerially. Think I’d rather have Smith and his experiences at scraping around at Walsall and Brentford.

We'll lose 2-1, sadly. We never do well there. Ollie for us, to go on a long scoring run...
