The Manager Merry-go-Round

[Jatz]

His first season for us wasn't that bad.

Oh I think he should be forgiven for that whole Chelsea stint. Not sure any manager would've succeeded under the circumstances.

Everton is the big blot, but not sure he has the ego to drop back to the Championship to see if he can succeed like Carrick is.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

Weren't those players he brought into the team along with Abraham?

Well yeah his connections helped. Just can’t manage for s**t. Conceded just under 60 goals in his first season at Chelsea ..terrible defence even though they finished fourth. Talent was there as Tuchel showed when he took over

Well Tuchel won a CL

Don't really see he has a choice. I can't imagine he'll land at a PL club again and even if he did, it won't be at a club that's set up for him to succeed.

If Scott Parker can get a job managing a CL side like Brugge then Lampard should be able to get a gig somewhere good abroad. Dont think he manages in the PL unless he does that and repairs his reputation or goes to a club and gets them promoted

Must be waiting for Yank Lampard to get sacked.

Who needs a fancy manager? Baines can do it.

I mean given how Bielsa does with his team's normally we'd be looking for a new manager in a year

 

[joop]

Bielsa doesn’t manage minnows.

 

[DBAH0]

Have a sneaky feeling they'll still try to bring Moyes back.

 

[hawkman]

You worried that if it was Poch that the magic wouldn’t be the same the 2nd time round?

Like getting back together with an ex, how often does it ever work? Eventually the same issues will come up

Wouldn't mind Ange. He would get the fans on side quickly with his style

You don't deserve Ange, he is Elland Rd bound (hopefully )

Bielsa might be able to do a job at Spurs.

Hes the last person we need. Our aging front line wouldn't last the first half

Sky Sports report that Sam Allardyce has ruled himself out for the Everton job.

Never get using that as a stick to beat him with, maintaining Chelsea's position in the 4 after a transfer ban and bringing a bunch of youth through, getting that Derby side into the play offs (which outside of Mount and Wilson really wasn't all that good) and keeping Everton up are all good achievements. Or else should we be demanding Klopp and Pep go because they're looking like taking their sides to a worse finish than last year?

I'd argue this was Lampard's first really poor season (that second Chelsea season he had to bed in a bunch of new signings which was taking time), and even then, the club is in a pretty awful state outside of him.

The transfer ban stuff is funny because they signed Kovacic and Pulisic.

Wasn't Kovacic on loan there the previous year? Not quite the same.

Transfer ban

 

[joop]

The transfer ban stuff is funny because they signed Kovacic and Pulisic.

1st season at Chelsea: he couldn’t bring any players in give him a break.
2nd season at Chelsea: he bought new players in give him a break.

 

[Bojan KantKick]

He was. They still purchased a player using a loophole during a transfer ban. They didn't lose anyone because of it and gained at least one player.
