2021/22 Frank Lampard

[The binman chronicles]

I also think he knows this job is vital to keep him being thought about as a credible manager in the top flight. That will spur him on.

TBH if he gets us top half next season I can see him being a target for other clubs and we may lose him after he's steadied this ship.

That's football.

Think it would take more than a top half finish, if however he manages to get us European football within the next 2 seasons and Tuchel goes then could see Abramovich poaching him based on he has become a more experienced coach from when he was first there.

This is why I'm not getting excited or thinking he is going to be here for years. I'll enjoy the results, I'll sing his name, but I'm not going to get attached. If he does well Chelsea will call and practically all our staff has a connection with that club making it impossible to turn down.

Seems like franks instructions before the game were keep the ball away from Keane and Holgate as much as you can or we are toast.

 

[Sheedy's right knee.]

That is some turnaround in 2 weeks

We got beat 6-2 by Spurs that day. DCL had a good goal chalked offfor us to go 2-0 up and Zouma got in a mess with Pickford to grift them an equalizer. Spurs we’re ruthless that day though, we had a couple of mares at the back too.

If things are going well here why would he want to leave.

There is always an attraction to go back to the club one played for.

 

[FCBarça]

Didn't follow Chelsea enough to see how/why things degenerated for him there but the times I did watch, I loved how he set his team up to play

I'll be honest, I didn't see that sort of tactical approach to him as a coach vs the player he was

I can't tell with him...from some interviews, I think the situation in which he was let go, left a sour taste. Who knows, apart from Frank.

 

[Toffeelover]

Will put my marker down now, no matter what happens this season I want to keep Frank as our manager right through his contract and hopefully will extend.

 

[Super Kevin sheedy]

Early days obviously, but let’s hope this is the start of something we can get behind and enjoy. Watching Hassenhuttl last night on MOTD, how close was he to getting the axe last season, especially after those cricket score defeats? But the Southampton board kept their nerve and they now look a completely different team. We’ll do well to get something there next week.

Southampton 1 Everton 3

What, to West Ham?

 

[Toffeelover]

What, to West Ham?

Behave.

 

[rochdaleblue]

What, to West Ham?

I think West Ham fans hate him for being a chelsea legend. I don’t think he’d want to go back to Chelsea after he was sacked last time, but there again I didn’t think Carlo would go back to Real after they sacked him.

 

[Sweeneytoad]

He's the first manager since Martinez that just feels like the right fit for the club.

Getting this basket case club top half in 18 months is like Tuchel doing the CL/PL double.

 

[davek]

That is a problem especially if it is Chelsea knocking to take him back again.

I hope he really settles here, establishes a TEAM, and takes us as a road to being at the top.

I hope we can get over this FFP pooh and give him the support he needs.

Got to remind myself which players are out at end of this season. Will that give a great help on the payroll bill ? Or what players will he want to retain ?

He'll see us as a stepping stone club.

I dont blame him either. He'll have earned a move if he does us a favour and stabilises the place.

17 points of 6th, Frank can see a European tour is still on. ?

The FA cup it is then, no chance we are finishing 6th or even 7th.
