Frank Lampard is a useless manager

[Wat Tyler]

Has anyone ever gone back to a club after previously being sacked by the same club?

Mourinho did it with the same club

And what happens if Chelsea wins the Champions League with Frank, do they let him go, or are they forced to give him the job permanently again

 

[longers]

haha i love how confident everyone was this was a nonsense story, not just here but everywhere, so much mocking of the journalist who printed it first.

He's basically their Duncan Ferguson. They just need a uniter in the dug-out to get the fans back onside until season's end, he'll do that. If he wins a few games then it will (wrongly) help repair his shattered managerial reputation and increase his chances of getting another gig either, in the summer or once sacking season starts in 24/25.

It's a shrewd move IMO, both parties have nothing to lose but a lot to gain from a short-term arrangement.

The vaults would be magnificent.

Tbf Roberto Di Matteo did the same trick and he was dreadful.

This is hilarious. I've spent the last 10 minutes laughing. Who'd have thunk after getting sacked from us he'd have ended up at Chelsea before the season ends? It's a pity they're not that wee bit closer to relegation as I think he'd have taken them down. Horrible club.

 

[blue to the bone]

They have Bournemouth and forest to play. Frank might help keep us up again

 

[trueblue84]

Can chelsea still mathematically be relegated?

Trying to finish the job of relegating us.

Colin Harvey?

 

[Liam-EFC]

Amazing really. I’d have thought his stint with us would have ended his managerial career forever, as he was so horrific.

That’s what people would have said about DiMatteo (and Benitez to a lesser extent)
