The Next Manager?

Do the math Frank!! Maths are hard, but come on!

This club is a fucking shambles man. 

[DDA 9,941]

I'm seeing all over the Internet, our fans going crazy with joy that Lampard has been appointed and that its the best decision our new owners have made...!!!

I knew our fanbase was in the lower end of the average I.Q. when it comes to football but this is a new all time low.

[Blue Armour 4,448]

To anyone saying the club is being responsible by not rushing to a decision...who said they have to? They should have been researching options from the moment they had doubts about Potter. Amateur hour from the board

We let Bruno go, guy never conceded a goal as a Chelsea manager.

I actually like this for the rest of the season. 

The players need someone who will explain to them how privileged they are to play here and what it means to be a Chelsea player. 

Our players don't lack skill. They lack heart and grit. Getting a legend in to tell you that you're a spoilt sack of shit and playing like one might be what lights a fire. 

We had JT here in 15/16 and Thiago Silva here this season. If the problem we need a character to throw their weight around we wouldn't have got in this mess in the first place.

as long as we are bringing everyone from the past back

wish someone would double tap Putin, the Ruskies pull out of Ukraine

and Roman is unbanned and buys us back, lolol

yes, it wasn't his fault at all that we missed a tonne of sitters

his tactics looked solid to me

I was hoping he would get a chance

He mixed title with relegation.

For the love of God, just please don’t instantly drop Félix for Mase. Havertz either, for that matter. As horrifically inefficient as he is in front of goal he IS still seemingly our best shot at scoring recently.

I’m personally still really hopeful that we buy Felix permanently so Lamps coming in with Mase in his plans and dropping him would totally sour him on the idea of staying behind this season. And with rumors already starting linking him to United it would be annoying as fuck to see him haunting us for a rival because we pushed him out.

Irrespective of Mount, we're so incredibly toothless in front of goal, and it's hardly like Felix has made himself undroppable. Absolutely under no circumstances should we be splashing out circa £80m on Felix. Lots of style but unfortunately just not enough substance to justify the price tag.

I'm trying to look at this in the same way. It feels like the whole club is just in a general air of malaise, arguably since the sanctions started and that translates to the pitch and players also.

If there is one thing I hope that Lampard can do, it's to re-energise the atmosphere at the Bridge and to make it abundantly clear what it means to play for this football club. Nobody is expecting some tactical masterclass!

“His worst” happened during lockdown. But I am 100% sure that no match going supporter will protest as long as Frank is there. He will be supported no matter what, until the end of the season. 

As he should. What's done is done, we should now support him no matter what. I'm not a fan of this appointment, but if our nr. 1 choice isn't available right now, then anybody (even Lampard) is better than Potter.

I don't believe Frank will make us any worse and that's good enough for until the end of the season. Main priority is avoiding relegation and I'm not joking saying that, with Potter that was a real possibility.

[Vegetable 830]

Yeah, the "backroom staff" seemed to contribute a lot to Frank's demise here - the training was subpar and injuries amount frightening. Hope he won't go full on to returning to this bunch.

[DDA 9,941]

We all know these spineless wankers will now somehow start scoring every game and make Lampard look great and he will get the job full time... if that does somehow happen... you can write next season off. Completely off.

There was no possibility at this point.

We'd have had to pick up less than 3 points from now till the end while seven teams suddenly found form that's been escaping them all season.

It would have taken a totally unprecedented run of results, even with Potter.

[Cosmin 2,484]

Curiously, I am not worried about Lamps and I am happy that he will get the chance to finally get a proper send-off from the fans.

What makes me anxious is the lack of certitude regarding the next permanent manager. There is a feeling that we could he in for a surprise. And not a nice one.

I would be calmer if I had the certainty that it’s between Enrique and Nagelsmann. I am not a fan of neither of them, but they would be decent options after all.

They just bought him because arsenal wanted him and had never heard of him prior 

And that the Fulham result was the catalyst.
