His permanent signings for all his clubs have been a nigh on disaster.BTW the transfer ban was only for his first summer. This is what he bought before he got sacked:

Nonsense. Who on the shortlist specifically would you prefer?He’s the fourth best candidate on the rumoured shortlist of four even if I don’t know the name of one of them.

It took Mrs BSB 5 years to see us win!My eldest didn’t see us lose for two years, all it took was three or four shite draws and losses and the winter time and she lost interest.

Remind me, what’s Eustace and Bloomfield’s highest league position over a full season?The shortlist for me on a general level is: reasonably promising Champ manager (Eustace - probably the weakest for his category but not much out there), up and coming lower league manager (Bloomfield), unknown foreign manager, and big name friend of the family who has failed repeatedly before (Lampard).
I’d go:
Unknown
Lower league
Champ

Remind me, what’s Eustace and Bloomfield’s highest league position over a full season?
Since we’ve beaten Blackburn in October, their record is 2-1-5. That’s worse than our record and come the end of the season, it wouldn’t shock me to see Blackburn fighting for survival.
If you genuinely think Eustace and Bloomfield are better candidates than Lampard, reduce your doses of copium.
McKenna cut his teeth in L1 and took some time to get going with a bumper budget for the league. Bloomfield strikes me as an even bigger gamble than Lampard.You'd probably be saying the same about McKenna a couple of years ago.
Broomfield could be a far better candidate, he could be a bag of shit, we'll never know

What a surprise throwing insults around again.Lads, Shmmeee is an absolute walloper. Why are you arguing with some so thick they didn't realise they hadn't page for their season ticket?
Let him dribble into dead space.
I'll wait for the club to announce it before believing it, I am pretty sure this is the same source that sold Gyokeres had been sold to half of the Premier League before he ended up at Sporting.Lampard done deal
In fairness Havertz was one of the hottest prospects in the world at the time, Werner was scoring goals for fun at his club and for his country, Chillwell at the time was one of the best left backs in the premier league, and Silva is one of the greatest centre halves ever, who was still class even in his late 30sBTW the transfer ban was only for his first summer.

McKenna at least came from an elite club and was highly regarded.You'd probably be saying the same about McKenna a couple of years ago.

Yeah, hiring some random foreigner to manage in one of the most grueling leagues with it's notoriously tough winter schedule coming up and an already furious fanbase on his back, that is a recipe for guaranteed success right there!The shortlist for me on a general level is: reasonably promising Champ manager (Eustace - probably the weakest for his category but not much out there), up and coming lower league manager (Bloomfield), unknown foreign manager, and big name friend of the family who has failed repeatedly before (Lampard).

It’s still a ‘jury’s out’ rather than ‘steaming turd’ in my view. If he fucks it here he’ll make like Gary Neville and never manage again.They're all gambles.
I just find the attempts to polish the turd that is Lampards managerial career amusing.
Like I say, all I'm interested in is what he does here, hopefully this is where he really shines.

Agreed. It’s also academic because Lampard wouldn’t have had a lot of control over transfers in the first place. The only big flop on that list is Werner. They at least made money on Havertz who is now a key player at Arsenal now and Chilwell was a top Prem LB before he was plagued by injuries.In fairness Havertz was one of the hottest prospects in the world at the time, Werner was scoring goals for fun at his club and for his country, Chillwell at the time was one of the best left backs in the premier league, and Silva is one of the greatest centre halves ever, who was still class even in his late 30s
So does Rooney to be fair, he just hasn’t got a clue of how to work with players who aren’t world class. We’ll soon tell if Lampard is the same.There's one thing I really like about Lampard, I think some big name players go into management just because.
I get the impression he really wants to work hard and make a success of it. Of course that doesn't mean he will, but I like his attitude, or at least, what I perceive to be his attitude.

This is it. He keeps coming back for more when I imagine he doesn't really need to financially.There's one thing I really like about Lampard, I think some big name players go into management just because.

Well it’s from a good source, the only clown is youThat looks really legit
And Havertz wasn't a bad signing in any event and is still playing at a top club. I'll take Chilwell on loan if they fancy itIn fairness Havertz was one of the hottest prospects in the world at the time, Werner was scoring goals for fun at his club and for his country, Chillwell at the time was one of the best left backs in the premier league, and Silva is one of the greatest centre halves ever, who was still class even in his late 30s

Their start will be key though. I really don’t see an any manager surviving a poor first month or two given the circumstances. That’s why I’m ok with Lampard because he has a few things going for him that might help him start well.If you’re hiring based on the next few games you’re hiring the wrong person anyway.
Any foreign manager will likely be there because their record has highlighted them, the closer to this league you go the more it’s who you know what you know. I’d rather a manager, any manager, who is hired because of his record not his surname. Ideally in that list I’d replace Eustace with a Mowbray or similar who has been around the block a bit more. That’s why he’s third in the list of four. But he’s in a job in the Championship and I’ve always liked him as a person which puts him above Lampard.

If the new manager starts poorly I suspect fans will turn on them/the team and they’ll probably be gone at the end of the season.What?
Think your recent posts make you look like a clown more to be perfectly honest palWell it’s from a good source, the only clown is you
Read like they’d be sacked in JanuaryIf the new manager starts poorly I suspect fans will turn on them/the team and they’ll probably be gone at the end of the season.

Still not too late for King to go to Hornyland
There's no way I'd have Mowbray back tbh (plus he won't be going to anyone for a while I'd imagine)
