andycap Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 I would of just kept Potter, he may of finally got a tune out of the squad with him being a good manager and if it doesn't work out then replace in the summer. Lampard is a massive downgrade in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 (edited) Roman would’ve just kept Potter unless he had a man lined up. Roman never sacked full time 2 managers in a season iirc. No point in Lampard. At least keeping Potter things might change. If at the end of the season it’s been diabolical change. But to cut him off now and bring in Lampard as Interim? It’s batshit crazy. Had they brought in Enrique or someone now? Fair enough. Edited April 6, 2023 by The College Dropout Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty66 Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 All of these jobs available/under threat this season and I've never seen a single mention in the media of Steve "1000 games" Bruce. Yet Hodgson and Fwank are back in the Prem. HA. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 (edited) Genuinely insane they didn't just stick with Potter until end of season and then sacked him and got the man they wanted in the summer. But no, lets sack Potter, pay him a shed load now and then bring back Big Frank Said it before, Roman looks a fucking stable bastard in comparison to Boehly Edited April 6, 2023 by Kanji Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LV Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 Boehly needs to sack himself. If the answer is that Tuchel and Potter aren’t good enough then it’s clear you’re asking the wrong question. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 (edited) It is daft but it's a free hit for Lampard to rebuild his reputation isn't it, he either does ok, which may persuade a minnow of a club to take a chance on him, he does terribly, in which case he's probably no worse off than now when he's been binned off as a premier league coach, or he wins the champions league by fluke (chelsea fucking love doing that don't they?) in which case he will inevitably get given the job at chelsea then get a massive payoff in october when reality has sunk in that he's not good enough. For chelsea guess appeals to the fans to buy in, he'll be probably ok at motivating dressing room but how he's going to parse the enourmous squad. Tactically he will be hopeless but that may be a relief from Potter's overthinking. I predict he will get some results but lose the big games badly, everyone will shrug and proper operator will come in in summer despite calls from media shouting for him to be given the job permanently for no reason. Boehly may relent, he does seem an idiot. There is clearly decent coach willing to jump on board late season, what is in it for them? Another two months out of work isn't going to diminish their reputation too much but two months crashing and burning in a dumpster fire may do.

Personally think there's a strong likelihood that would happen. He'll get some sort of new manager bounce and, let's face it, with the players they've got, sticking all 11 players in their right position would go some way to making that happen.
