Ok, let's go through it again.

- Pep had no transfer ban. Lampard will.
- Pep had MESSI, Xavi, Puyol, Eto'o, Pique. Lampard will have...Willian?
- La Liga is a easier league than the PL.
- Pep took over a club that was stablised. Lampard won't.
- Pep had leaders. Lampard won't.

He changed Derby's style, but it wasn't all that pretty. In some games it works, in some games it's bad.

Lampard only put them one step further but the end product is the same. 

You're giving me the team comparisons, not actual managerial comparisons.

I think before anything, we need to know what the club expects from Lampard.

Today has clearly showed the bar which Chelsea must work towards reaching. At this moment we are pretty far away but the overreaction today on this forum is incredible. Sarri has been at the club

I'm telling you now, to all the SarriOut supporters.... you don't know how lucky we are to have a humble manager like Sarri... a man with principle, passion, an expansive free flowing footballing phil

Yes and that comes with the package. Chelsea is not Pep's Barcelona. So if Pep had poor decision making, flaws, etc. the Barca squad would have bailed him out.

Here at Chelsea, we are more likely to get player errors that leads to an opposition goal, than them bailing Lampard out for his tactics.

Have you seen Barca the season before Pep? They finished 3rd and won nothing. There was a disconnect between the fans and the club, which grew resentment towards Rijkaard. They sacked him, appointed someone who knew the club and the culture. This in itself had players believe in the manager and in their ability. 

Do I believe this will happen with Lampard? No, because I can't back that up. I do however know Lampard's philosophy on football, and I think it will help continue on what Sarri started. 

Again, the one thing we need to know is what the club expects from Lampard.

So did Di Matteo...

How does being a club legend help anything? It adds NOTHING on the pitch.

No, Derby didn't have a good first season. They are still in Championship.

...which is why this is a bad time for him to come. Unless, you want us to become Derby County?

A dream job that came too early. How do you gain experience? Let me tell you how. FINISH THE PROJECT YOU HAVE STARTED WITH DERBY. Don't just abandon it. You failed to promote Derby to the Championship, try again. That's when we will know if Lampard has learnt a lot of things, or he is just a stagnated coach with no plan B.

At least you can point to players like RLC who had YEARS of experience on the pitch. Lampard just one as coach. One.

What you fail to see, is that bringing back familiar faces is playing on the nostalgia card. We had/have plenty of legends returning to clubs as coaches such as Di Matteo, Ole, Dalglish, Gullit etc. who did the same thing. 

But Lampard hasn't done it enough. He doesn't know the pressure of the PL, he doesn't know how to handle a PL club, it's all new to him. And being a head coach is a massive thing, way more massive than a 19 year old player stepping in on the pitch.

I'm telling you, what you're thinking is a dream scenario. When you start to see losses of 5-0 or 4-0, that's when pressure builds and going to places like Anfield, Etihad, WHL and Emirates and getting spanked by these clubs...

Will Lampard be here the following season? Sarri was on his neck when we were looking to finish 5th and no trophy!

Mate, I'm with you in this shit.

I'm pretty sure the board is appointing Lampard because Zidane was a success with Real Madrid.

Have to side with @Mana here. I really want Lamps to manage us at one point, he is my favourite player of all time, but I just don't want to see him being bashed by plastics and reputation demolished by this atrocious state the club is in at the moment. Let Roman sell up, clean up the mess that is our board and then let's try to make something of us again.

to fight for the 4th place in EPL, and to pass through the first phase of the CL 

these should be the minimal objectives of the next season

We barely scraped 4th last season with Hazard. 

4th place should be seen as a maximum objective IMO. 6-5th place minimum.

Same!! Get the experience and come when things have calmed down or the situation is a bit less crappy. Not with a slightly dodgy squad and no chance of adding to then.

Sky Sports, BBC etc. said Sarri was leaving on Friday and they looked 99% certain.

He’s still here. These ITKs know feck all.

they have quite clearly got the days wrong, but they are absolutely right in that he is going.

 

Any chance of it being false rumours are long gone
