Who should replace Frank Lampard?

[blue to the bone]

Does Tony Pulis always do punditry on Amazon Prime or is he trying to put himself in the shop window? Would definitely steer clear of him but interesting as I haven’t seen him on tv in a while.

I smell a ?..

I don’t think he is out of reach all the top 6 sides have a secure manager apart from Spurs and he won’t be going back there, not saying we will get him but he’s deffo not out of reach imo

That's thinking from a couple of years back mate.

Look where we are now: no cash to spend and sold our better creative players. This squad would have Pochettino running in the opposite direction to avoid them.

If someone comes up with a reachable/viable manager to take this lot on, then please alert me to it.

 

[ArtetaMoney]

Not a chance we get Poch, it’ll be Dyche.

I don’t think he is out of reach mate. Look at the geezer in the opposite dugout yesterday. Had absolutely no business jacking in what he had over there for a relegation fight over here but it’s the allure of the league/associated filthy lucre isn’t it? Pochettino wants back into the league and no doubt another crack at the big time which he gets if he turns us into a lower mid table outfit or better.

He was also involved (though I admit I have no idea how heavily) in instigating one of the better transfer policies I’ve seen in the league in recent times when Southampton previously turned into Porto lite.

Wolves are a bigger draw for a manager than we are. They have a lot of good technical players. Lopetegui would have baulked at coaching this lot we have.

This really is a poison challice.

As I conceded today: it's probably the right time we let FL go. However, I'd like to think if we do that then there's a good manager out there who can come in and motivate a load of journeymen and coax a few results out of them to at least make a fist of our fight to stay in the PL. I haven't heard anything remotley plausible so far.

No decent manager touches us as we are a basket case of a club.

You’re probably not wrong, HOWEVER, we’re a couple of attacking signings from having a side that a competent coach can guide to a few places above the drop zone. Having seen what FL has done (or not) with the summer signings I don’t want him given this window.

Whoever we look at replacing FL with, it's like bringing in a new quartermaster on the Titanic, after it has hit the iceberg!

 

[Ed Ward]

Hi Ed. What was your first everton kit mate

Hafnia.

You obviously don't believe I'm a fan so here's a little about me. Born in Mill Road hospital, lived in Kenny then Fazak til mid 80s then moved south with mum and dad. First match was Coventry at home in 84-85 season, Sharpe equaliser in the last 10 mins.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Any sensible, ambitious manager wouldn't want to manage the club under this current owner and board

 

[Lawrence]

I see our former brains trust of Unsworth, Ebrell and Jeffers are really putting themselves in the shop window.

TBF he identified Kudus.

We'll end up with Dyche.

If Leicester sacked Brodgers he's the only one I'd want in here who I could see coming and getting a game out of this lot.

Keep him round as a scout, then, by all means. Just don’t let him coach the signings!!

That's Dyche then Dave.

The worst manager we have had, what a load of nonsense. have you any sort of statistics to back that up? oh is it really that easy to make a WC final? how many has england been in since 66?
