Phillipe Clement

We are truly fuked if he is our new manager. He has shown nothing to suggest he would work out.

I’d take McInnes before him.

Phillipe Clement
Frank Lampard
Kevin Muscat
Pascal Jansen

Don’t want lampard

 

[YOGI_GER]

Lampard would be a disaster

Hope not

 

[insanicdrunk]

It fukin depresses me that FL is in any list.

utterly depressing if any truth in this, im slowly losing the will to live

 

[Bocanegra]

75% of that list is bald.

The other 25% is absolutely hopeless.

 

[ICA_86]

The board don’t have the balls to appoint Lampard, even if he was the cheap easy option.

99% of fans wouldn’t accept him.

 

[SDF]

The board deserve all they get if they appoint Lampard.

 

[sg9375]

F.ucking better not be Lampard. If this is true have the board not seen his management before. FFS this can’t be happening. Stressed out at the thought.

 

[The Goalie]

While Wallace and Law might be ITK about Lampard, I doubt they have a clue who else is on the shortlist

 

[BlueArmada]

Does anyone know much about Clement and his style of football?

 

[JC72]

I can’t imagine we’re close to appointing anyone yet but the fact he’s saying we’ve spoke to Lampard suggests he’s definitely in the hat.

 

[Meanie1872]

That reads as Lampard throwing his name into the hat to me

 

[Ted Rangers]

Lampard would be a ridiculous choice from that list.

It's worrying he might be on a list, and frightening that we might have spoken to him 3 times.

 

[Bocanegra]

Don't know much about Clement but 3 league titles in a row in a fairly competitive Belgian league for two different clubs points to him having something about him.

Finished sixth in Ligue 1 last season with Monaco but scored the most goals in the league out with PSG.

 

[tscotsman]

Oh no, please don’t be lampard.

 

[Ready72]

It better not be Lampard

 

[Clay Davis]

I don’t think the board will appoint Lampard with the fan feeling towards it.

I mean I hope they won’t.

 

[Robert_mcf]

Lampard has done nothing to deserve the role, failed at every club he's managed. As a player he's a winner but as a manager he's a loser.

 

[RabSpackman]

Lampard is completely clueless

I can’t see how Lampard would improve on anything that we’ve seen in the last 2yrs.

He is full of cliches and doesn’t seem able to coach his players into doing what he did as a player.
He was incredibly dedicated, intelligent and hardworking as a player. He “should” be a much better coach/manager than we’ve seen so far.

Rangers would be last chance saloon for him as well. Succeed here and it gets some degree of credibility back - fail and he’ll struggle to get a gig in Saudi Arabia.

 

[Superted 1872]

Not a single one of them is what we need

 

[Leo_Ger]

I don't find anyone on that list particularly appealing.

 

[blue genes]

The board deserve all they get if they appoint Lampard.

Booted out unluckily at transfer embargoed Chelsea after a great 17 match unbeaten run & saved Everton from relegation.

As per Frank himself last night on MNF...

 

[Clay Davis]

Don’t know much of Clement but looks decent on paper

 

[Craigie]

It's not going to be Lampard.







Hopefully.

 

[SDF]

His sycophants in the press back in the day falling over themselves to give him some sort of credit for the Champions League win as well.

That really is an unfortunate choice of username Simon Phillips has chosen.

 

[Lovenkrands Dug]

Don't know much about Clement but 3 league titles in a row in a fairly competitive Belgian league for two different clubs points to him having something about him.

Aye Clement is a decent shout. Started off decent at Monaco too, second season wasn't the best though.

 

[GodStruth]

The board deserve all they get if they appoint Lampard.

We don't deserve it though

 

[MYR_93]

Stephen Robinson and Derek McInness are better options than anyone on that list.

And neither of them should be options either.

 

[Dambusters]

Has Lampard been a successful manager anywhere he has been?

 

[JayDee]

Guesswork?

 

[Div1872]

If this board are that stupid to appoint Lampard then when he fails they can expect huge protests against the board for their sheer incompetence

We need a proven manager

Lampard as a manager has achieved nothing

He would be a total disaster and surely the board must recognise this

If not and they actually hire him we are going backwards again

 

[HMS.Temple.Garden]

Meh!

 

[TMT555]

If thats the final shortlist then thats depressing reading and a total lack of judgement by the board

 

[Bear84]

I could see Bisgrove being seduced by the publicity around appointing Lampard.

I'd rather have Beale or Gio back.

 

[Bocanegra]

Stephen Robinson and Derek McInness are better options than anyone on that list.

And neither of them should be options either.

Stephen Robinson is a better option than a guy who has won league titles in a fairly decent European league at different clubs?

Mate, come on.

 

[sir_walter_smith]

I don’t think the board will appoint Lampard with the fan feeling towards it.

I mean I hope they won’t.

Never stopped them appointing Beale

 

[westenclosurebear]

Not a single one of them is what we need

Afternoon Derek.

 

[Madjid Moments]

Clement is an interesting one. A winner, experience at big clubs and has to be the stand out of these ones mentioned.

 

[GBY74]

Of the names mentioned I'd take Lampard however I thought he ruled himself out as he's enjoying his time away from football just now so unlikely to be him.

 

[Nelson Scrandela]

Hopefully the 3rd time is him calling Rangers and being told "FFS Frank, we told you. No"

 

[Lovenkrands Dug]

Stephen Robinson and Derek McInness are better options than anyone on that list.

And neither of them should be options either.

No they aren't hahahaha

You telling me Derek McInnes could get to a conference league semi final with AZ Alkmaar, or finish top three in Ligue 1 with Monaco?

 

[Superted 1872]

Afternoon Derek.

Do you not agree? We are going to need something really special here

 

[bigkilty2]

Every paper seems to be coming out with their candidates and all different names lol

WATP

 

[temperance]

Over his four spells as manager, Lampard has a win rate of 40%
