Lampard and the Chelsea job

[Van der MoodHoover]

Has there been any statement following the meeting between Frank and mel?

[Rev]

Mac2 was 12/1 half an hour before it was announced.

Pearson was 20/1 the day before.

The yearly review every manager has after the season? Why would there be?

Sarri gone ?

Am I missing something? No statements from anyone on this that I can see.

He deserves another season. Sarriball is class.

If I remember rightly, didn't Pearson's odds fall massively a few hours before the news started breaking?

I seem to remember that being the first time the bookies seemed to know before all the rest of us did.

I don't know. I know I got 20/1 the day before!

Honestly I think he'd do really well as Chelsea manager. He might be the breath of fresh air they've been waiting for.

It would be a massive risk for him and Chelsea this early in his career. 

I'm sure he would feel more comfortable after a couple more years experience and wouldn't want to tarnish his legend status by being chucked out on his ear after having a poor season.

He's arguably the only manager that could arrive and get guaranteed time from the fans.

If they're going to go through a year of suffering with the transfer ban, then who better to hire than a guy who won't get turned on?

They'll also know they've got to finally make use of that impressive Youth Academy. Who better than a manager who has already proved he is willing to give youth a chance, and an assistant manager who helped nurture most of them anyway!

Frank Lampard’s agent told Chelsea he’s really happy in Derby and staying at least 2 more years, at a meeting down his local pub. Oh the bar bill was less than £2,600 too according to sources in Derbyshire ?

 

[SuperDerbySuperRams]

I have a feeling this is inevitable now. It really would be a shame, but a decision you couldn’t begrudge 

[ThePrisoner]

The amount of people putting 2 + 2 to get 5.

Frank will be off as soon as Chelsea come calling, if they weren't under a transfer ban then the likes of Allegri would be considered, but they have no other option than to blood the youngsters and have a complete rebuild.

 Whatever happens needs to happen quick for our own sake. We need a rebuild ourselves and uncertainty about the management will not help in the slightest.

Their manager has asked to leave and he’s a touted option for Chelsea. 

[MK-Ram]

Despite the mostly enjoyable season we've just had, I'm nowhere near as concerned as I was when Mac left the first time. We're in a much better position than we were under Rowett and, rightly or wrongly, because of Lampard's name, people know who Derby County are again.

 

Given the obvious rumours have been circling for a while now, I'd also be stunned if Mel hasn't already got a clear favourite for the job, and I'd fully expect it to be someone exciting and fresh.

[Sexydadbod]

Only a matter of time before this happens. Sarri will probably be confirmed leaving tomorrow, Chelsea had their Europa league final celebrations today and Sarri(and Hazard) probably said goodbye to the Chelsea staff and players in that time. No other manager would want to go to there with their transfer ban, Lampard makes sense for Chelsea at this point because the Chelsea fans will stick with him.
