Frank Lampard - manager rumours

[Nelson!]

Burnley owner said he wants a big name, so I think unless he blows the interview he will get that job.

 

[seedysafc]

Don't think he's enough of a mug to take it. He won't accept the conditions that would be imposed upon him.

 

[Father Jack Hackett]

Yes, as a manager. Cruyff, had already won trophies with Ajax as a manager when he went to Barça. So i dont really get your point

You were talking about young players not recognising players from a previous generation

Yes, but Guardiola didn't recognise him as a player, he recognised him as a coach.

Don't know why I keep checking this forum, it's been constant shite

Bit like sniffing your own fart

Take the Burnley job Frank there’s a good tory

 

[scotch]

Got to the point where I'm actively convincing myself that he would be a better choice than some of the others purely because being without a manager has gone beyond a joke

 

[Super Ted]

Would take him purely because of how scared I am about which nugget they are going to actually give it to.

Lampard who took a team to the Championship playoff final in his first season, and then a team to fourth in the Premier League and an FA Cup final the following year?

His initial work at Chelsea, with the transfer constraints, is the most impressive bit of his cv.
Brought younger players / fringe players through and secured 4th. Very good work.
Everton - Did the same as most do there.
Derby - Given the loan players he had he should have done better.
Not as good as some would have you believe and nowhere near as bad as many claim.
I think he would be a good appointment.

 

[Mr Redknapp]

..to be frank

Political Party allegiances one of your criteria for acceptance?

But, but, but....hes a tory boy

Least lampard comes across as a decent bloke and he’s a relatively big name in football. Must say not too impressed with his managerial career so far but i think he would get the fans and understand club. To be honest any manager is fucked unless model changes

Don't want Lampard but totally agree with your last sentence.

 

[Safc1987]

Lampard would only come here if promises were made for backroom staff and decent transfer budget IMO. So doubt it.

This
Everything he’d want to come here we don’t/wont give

 

[6inarow]

Nowt wrong with appointing Lampard,

Hes a big deal in a lot of ways

 

[BucketBiff]

Where we are now, I wouldn’t be against Lampard coming in.

This. Whole process has been farcical. Lampard won’t come here though. Way too much of a risk.

 

[Karlsson]

Well he’s out of work but not cheap so I suppose that would represent some progress regarding our ambitions!

 

[chicken nugget]

Meh, another failure, big name or not

 

[Bradaz1]

His odds have dropped in the past few days

 

[gards2]

I'd be happy with him he's got knowledge at the highest level of Football and is a former elite player. He'd be ideal.
