Yes, but he was ‘lucky’ at Derby, Chelsea and then Everton. The common denominator is that Lampard, for all his perceived and real faults, is at least good at developing talent. We’ve got bags of it in our team and a few additions I believe we’ll have a great team.Sometimes you just get lucky with a group of kids, Fergie was the same with the class of 99. You just end up with a really strong group all in the same group.
All four of them.Those feet do not belong to that body.

"Interestingly, Football Insider have also reported that Coventry's board didn't want the Blades to be Lampard's first opponents"
My thoughts exactly.This surely can't be true?
It's just fucking odd.
Get in and get on with it, I can't see Lampard would want this.
Thats it then...russell slade it is
Thought that was it then
We’re playing Sheff Utd not Real Madrid. There’s no reason why we can’t beat them."Interestingly, Football Insider have also reported that Coventry's board didn't want the Blades to be Lampard's first opponents"
Odd one that. Personally, and no disrespect to Rhys, I'd much prefer the idea of the new manager on Saturday rather than the caretaker.
I can understand that it's a tough game and if he loses it everyone will jump on him, but do we really stand much of a chance anyway?
It’s probably based on the nonsense posted on here.This surely can't be true?

Didn’t want the circus distracting players from the match before the game. Simple as that.This surely can't be true?

They were the same kids at Derby and Chelsea.to get 3 come through at the same age and all develop requires an element of luck, a good group with the right mentality and desire.

I wouldn’t turn round and say Robins was lucky with our youth intake and signings throughout the years. Yes, there’s always an element of luck in this industry, but managers develop certain skill sets and expertises. Robins had a great track record at ‘crisis clubs’ for his early career.

But had been at villa that season excelling in the championship. In fact he had had 2 previous successful loan spells too.Tammy Abraham

Does Lampard not deserve any credit then? Mason Mount is a great example of a player that probably wouldn’t have been given a chance to shine at Chelsea had they not had an embargo and hired a big name manager. It takes one thing to develop players like Tomori and Mount to be top Championship players and another 2-3 gears to get to the top end of the Premiership. To put it down to pure luck is just not accurate or fair.They were the same kids at Derby and Chelsea.to get 3 come through at the same age and all develop requires an element of luck, a good group with the right mentality and desire.

You still have to be good enough.Not true, Reece James he brought through at Chelsea in his first season and he wasn't at Derby.
It's not about "kids waiting in the wings"?Again. What kids are waiting in the wings for us for a manager to give them a chance? It’s just not relevant to us as a club to have a manager who gives youth a chance. And that’s all a first team manager does to “develop youth”, the majority is done by the coaches in the academy and the kids talent and application. As stu says the number that come through generally are a product of that.

As Cov fans, we hate the idea that Amorim has ‘made’ Gyokeres because we remember what he was like when he first joined. With hindsight, many neutrals are asking how did we not get promoted with Hamer and Gyokeres because they’re great players. Obviously we know that MR and his staff developed a lot of players, Hamer and Vik probably wouldn’t have got to where they ended up without us - or at least not as quickly.

We've got plenty of young players with some experience who we need to kick on to the next level (Dovin, Thomas, Binks, Eccles, Torp, Rudoni, Simms etc.). That's what Lampard has done elsewhere.
