A Thoughtful Reset of My Lampard Thoughts

Okay, let me take a different tack.

Lampard had the best players in the world at Chelsea and was fired after almost 2 years of mediocrity.
So why does his appointment excite you? Can someone explain what they saw in his forgettable
spell at Chelsea that makes them think, "Yes, I'd like that for us too!"?

Like many superstars who try to coach I think he just stands there and yells at people:
"Play like ME! What's wrong with you!" or
"Be champions! Don't you know who I am? Listen to me!"

However, maybe he's like Moyes. Gets the most out of lousy players. He SORT OF succeeded with the Rams
Moyes was great with us but horrible with Man U and their payroll.

But can any of you look at his record and tell me why the thought of him doing that here excites you? Honestly?
 
Young manager who plays attractive football.
Looks like hes getting a good back up team behind him.

Not saying I am excited yet, proof is in the pudding, but im hopeful, for the first time in a while, well, apart from the whole utter fear of relegation.
YOU would be a young manager who likes attrractive football
 

He knows the league
The club
It's fans
It's history
It's faults
And more importantly the players and will be hungry to prove himself after Chelsea
Like the other fellow who likes young people and atrtractive football. You have all the qualifications you just listed for Lampard.
I will have to assume nobody has a good reason for wanting Lampard here. It's just like a dog chasing a stick. You don't know why you do it, but you just know you must.
 
I honestly dont know what point you are trying to make.
My point was: You want Lampard because he's young and likes attractive football.
My point, further, was that you have the same qualifications based on that criteria.
You countered my point with "You're drunk."
Which highlights my original point: "You don't know why you want Lampard."
