Frank Lampard Rumours (270 Viewers)

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Even Potter had a near 40% ratio , lampard had 9

However we spin that at chelsea that's unreal how shit that is

Wasn’t Lampard in charge of Chelsea for Ellis Simms’ only top flight goal?

Frank lampard has the 2nd worst win ratio in Everton history , dyche who I believe hasnt done a good job either has 6% better

I know it was only 11 games but 9% in his 2nd spell at Chelsea

King won't - ironically enough - look at his stats, just the name.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

I know it was only 11 games but 9% in his 2nd spell at Chelsea

Was he even the permanent manager? Just an extended caretaker spell by the looks of it.

If Luton sacked Edwards and got Lampard would you be worried? I’d be thinking they could go down and they’ve made a mistake.

If it is him let’s hope he’s done some Brendan Rodgers soul searching (between Reading and Swansea) and become a better manager in his time out.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Would people be happy with Solskjaer out of curiosity

 

[covcity4life]

I just can’t understand people wanting Robins out but being happy with Lampard. Completely odd.

Tbf how many posters actually wanted robins out and lampard in?

I would imagine majority are sad robins gone but happy to give lampard a chance as successor considering we require one now

 

[False9]

If I saw another Championship club sacking their long term manager to appoint Lampard I'd be laughing at it and saying they're going down.

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

The best we played in the championship IMO was the first real season back (RICHO + crowds).

Maatsen and Dabo holding the width, O'Hare and Hamer in the middle and mcfazden at the back (who was a better footballer than he got credit for) and of course Godden and Vic up top.

What a season that was to be honest. Loved the Fulham matches.

Wish we kept hold of Jodi Jones tho. Think there is a player there and he’s definitely showing it at Notts (granted much lower level)

Not happy with anyone coming in but someone has to.

 

[samccov1987]

I've voted no as I don't believe he'd deliver long term success.

However, I do think the academy would improve and also our stature in the footballing world. We'd probably be one of Sky's golden clubs being "Frank Lamaprd's Coventry City" so that can only help fill our coffers which is what's most important in today's game.

As much as I loved MR being with us, he wasn't a name that attracted media attention simply because he wasn't that kind of man. Even most Man U "fans" likely didn't know who he was, as with most PL fans.

Overall, I think it'll be short term til maybe this time next year, but we'd get an initial boost and access to better loan players out there (even though DK doesn't like that model which makes this appointment seem odd)

I’m sure there are better managers out there on the continent and maybe some of the less well known names like Bloomfield maybe good in the long run but for where we are I can see some logic in Lampard.

Im not expecting playoffs this season now but to push up the table and finish top half after our start and the dumping of Robins.

Next summer is going to be a rebuild; Sheaf, Hadji, MVE all likely to move on. Likes of Bidwell, Allen and Wilson out of contract. So we’re looking at some significant churn although possibly a Vik windfall.

Frank has contacts in the game and assuming he steadies the ship I’d expect us to build a decent team although think it would be a push to expect promotion.

18 months of Lampard whilst not spectacular maybe the best we can hope for at this point.

It’s Doug who I think is going to have to adjust his expectations. There’s always a team that comes out the blue to get promotion but if he really wants us up he’s going to have to put his hands in his pockets and pump some money in not rely on sell ons from our better players.

I think that’s a very interesting way of looking at it.

Which of the names on the list would I see going to Luton in that scenario and think “they’ve made a good appointment”?

Maybe Carsley or Eustace?

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Would people be happy with Solskjaer out of curiosity

Probably the same to be honest

 

[Ian1779]

This is basically Eric black and Peter Reid all over again isn't it

I want you to be wrong but I fear you won’t be.

[Evo1883]

I like Frank lampard , I think he's a really nice bloke and he talks brilliantly about football .


Wether I think that translates into success at coventry , I have my doubts

Free advertising. Will King on the benefits of regularly shaving your fanny.

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

He's not taken anybody to the next level yet

Neither had Robins

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Neither had Robins

Yes other than 2 promotions, a cup win, and a cup semi final

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

Math not your strong point ?

You’re spending too much time watching American programmes

 

[Evo1883]

Neither had Robins

Robins managed Rotherham and Barnsley not chelsea

If I'd have asked you 3 weeks ago if when robins leaves would you take Frank, you'd have laughed I imagine

 

[quinn1971]

I just can’t understand people wanting Robins out but being happy with Lampard. Completely odd.

You think if lampard had been in charge the start of this season would he have been any worse than robins, I doubt it, we’ve been awful, that’s on the manager unfortunately

 

[Ccfcisparks]

You think if lampard had been in charge the start of this season would he have been any worse than robins, I doubt it, we’ve been awful, that’s on the manager unfortunately

Yes it probably would have been

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Yes other than 2 promotions, a cup win, and a cup semi final

Your missing the “neither had” as I said on the other group before us robins got sacked from Scunthorpe and took him 14 months to get a job

 

[Evo1883]

You think if lampard had been in charge the start of this season would he have been any worse than robins, I doubt it, we’ve been awful, that’s on the manager unfortunately

Well il take your word for it that we're appointing the new marco bielsa

 

[Evo1883]

Doug will probably have to drop his no loan policy considering at derby he had many

 

[quinn1971]

Yes it probably would have been

But if he’d of come in and we’d had this start, imagine the reaction, we needed something to happen, right choice for me,

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

Robins managed Rotherham and Barnsley not chelsea

If I'd have asked you 3 weeks ago if when robins leaves would you take Frank, you'd have laughed I imagine

I wouldn't of laughed I'd be emotionless like i am now, i wouldn't of known what to think and I don't know what to think now. It's the unknown and we're in unchartered territory

Urgh the East Midlands outfit.

Yes the difference is robins has proven before he can turn things round.

Can't wait to hear Harry Redknapp appointed as a footballing consultant...
