To be honest, the only thing I keep hearing and reading from Lampard is that the players need to start playing for the badge. I mean, yeah right. But it is quite amateurish, we can say that too, and it needs more, way much more.

What else is left tho for the rest of the season? If the players just dont care anymore u can tell em what u want, they wont listen. The right work ethic is the first thing that has to be right. If its not, and it looks like its not, then u can tell em whatever u want, they wont do it. 

I really suggest that all of u just start to not care about the last few games anymore, there is just no point. Tbf preseason games in the sumnmer are more important than these PL games that are coming up.

Nagelsmann is the better option anyway. 

I look at this team, and i see a big mess in identity and collaboration. JN was heavily criticized for changing tactics and players selection. It feels more of the same we are getting from JN.

Enrique is tactically stubborn, you will have no confusion what the identity of the team is.

Nagelsmann is too much like Potter, i maybe more open to him but not after seeing this shit from Tuchel, Potter, and Lampard.

The problem with Enrique is that, as u said, he is so stubborn that he wants to force his tactics on his players, even if it doesnt really suit the them. Enrique would require another big go into the transfermarket to make his philosophy work and Im not sure we have the money for it. With the players we have rn, he might struggle and he would maybe use tactics that are not working for these players that are here. 

Nagelsmann on the other hand is way more flexible with tactics and can use the tactic that suits the given players the most. Yes, he overdid it with Bayern, absolutely, but maybe he learned from it.

 Vivell being close to Nagelsmann already gives him unfair advantage. You can bet he would 'leak' him interview questions.

We have a lot of players to sell, some players will fit others will not. It is better than our current plan, hoping something stick.

The trajectory under him was backward.

maybe but overall he was good. and will go on to be a successful coach in the future. Lampard and Potter will be remembered (as coaches) for failing spectacularly at Chelsea, neither will amount to anything and neither deserved the job to begin with.

Same with Enrique, you know how it would end. Playing from left to right, no penetration, having a hard time scoring against energetic low blocks that u see a lot in the PL. Just Spain vs Morocco the whole season. 

Club football is diferent to national football. with national football you are restricted by the players you can play in your team whereas with club football, a manager can buy whichever player he wants from anywhere in the world.

  The Ted Lasso comparisons are more apt with Lampard

Was exactly same first time round too. Confidence is one thing but having some sort of tactical structure is just as important. No point lifting guys if they aren’t going to know how to play as a team.

This sounds like we have played this game before. Not knowing if someone really wants to be a Chelsea before talking about the person being the preferred person.

 

 

[lucio 5,418]

He wouldn't last long at Madrid imo with his age 

[Clockwork 1,794]

Why not Unai Emery?

With the kind of coaches at our rivals - Pep who is known for drilling attacking patterns till players tire of it and Klopp, who focuses heavily on pressing patterns - Lampard's vibes are  not going to cut it at all. We need a proper coach and rebuild

I don't see JN taking the Madrid job.

I know i have argued against managers who are very flexible and experimental, but that maybe a good thing given the squad we have. Maybe he is the right coach to find a starting eleven with all these misfits.

He has used 4-4-2(4-2-2-2), 4-2-3-1, and some variation of a back 3. 

Also his work with former Leipzig managers maybe an ideal setup with the club. City hired a bunch of ex Barca football minds before hiring Pep.
