If ever Lampard rocks up here I will be gutted. He is so clueless it is weird, considering his football career. I saw him up close at Derby and in my opinion he is hopeless. Tactically bonkers. I was at a terrible game of football at Wembley when his team lost to a dreadful Villa. He absolutely froze. It was a painful watch. I dont like calling out coaches but honestly he is not up to the task with us in my opinion.
I have doubts about Seelt personally. I worry about him being turned and his reading. Big chance for him now and I hope he takes it and I am proved wrong. I know someone who has seen him before he came here and saya he has a massive future. Fingers crossed he does enough to show if Ballard goes we have the next cab off the rank.
Good to hear that we both have the same view on Frank Lampard. He needs to give up on any thoughts of a continuing career in football management. I wonder what he is like as a coach?
Had Mount and Tomori and finished on less points than McClaren the season before if I call correctly?
For me I thought Dodds was doing a fantastic job with the youth set up and it seems to me we may have weakened out development side with him being moved to first team duties, however I would not want his progression and career path to be ignored either. Did we ever replace him when he was moved to first team duties ??? I don't recall hearing anything. My opinion is that he was doing a great job where he was and firmly believe that he probably needed a couple more seasons slowly integrating to first team affairs. However I hope he smashes it out of the park but I do have some niggling reservations in the back of my mind.
Will Still has his brother with him on his staff, I don't think anyone else but can't be sure.
Yep, his younger brother Nicolas. He stepped in for him not so long ago when he had a touchline ban. His older brother, Edward, was manager of Kortrijk until recently. I think I've read that there might be someone else. I can't see him going anywhere without Nicolas and the club will have to accept that if they want him. I think they will though. As I said in my earlier post, I think all this Dodds and Proctor stuff is a red herring and another stick to beat the regime with.
****ing hate the arrogant ****er
Yep. I can see why Lampard would appeal to Speakman. He went into Chelsea when they were under a transfer embargo and had no choice but to bring through the youth into the first team. He done a very decent job under the circumstances.
