I wouldn't ever knock Lucas because of what he created, but like everything in life sometimes you've just got to accept you're not good at some things and as a director he just wasn't good. When Carrie Fisher was on Pre-TFA she said she'd only ever had direction from Lucas in one scene (the destruction of Alderaan scene). In anyone's book, that's not a lot of direction and she was hardly even an established actress at that point, she'd only done a couple of films.
The fact that completing ANH brought Lucas to the brink of a nervous breakdown probably didn't endear him to the job later in his career either!
I think as well, he probably got a bit arrogant when he directed the PT and thought people would be blown away by the CGI and effects and acting and, less so, story, wouldn't really matter.
