Tbf I remember them just being carried by Dmitri Payet that season before he spat the dummy out and wanted to go back to France

Yes he was very impressive during his spell there and then did little after rather like Michu did at Swansea

It’s a career ender. The best thing for Lampard’s career is to take us up because if we get relegated, it doesn’t go against him. Much like McKenna’s reputation at Ipswich is intact despite going down without much of a fight.

West Ham are a big club but they have delusions of grandeur. They thought Moyes-ball was beneath them and it’s gone belly up since they let Moyes go. Who coincidentally is doing well at Everton! They also don’t like Lampard to begin with.

I’m certain that Lampard views our club as a project so he’s not going to bolt straight away and he’ll be careful about his next destination.

I've got a feeling if we go up, Lampard will be bang in line for the England job. Howe won't leave Newcastle and at that point it'll only be Potter that would take it.

I'd be surprised if Lampard was appointed the England manager .

Given his teams keep winning the Euro U21 comps I suspect Carsley is most likely to be the next England manager.

I thought he said before he didn’t want it?

Said from day one that his ambition will be to manage England.

That's when we'll lose him.

Carsley doesn’t want it (well said before he didn’t want it), and after him the English stocks are pretty low.

if Tuchel fails, then the fact he’s not English will be absolutely hammered in the media.

then you start going down the list - if Lampard is successful with us you’ll get the media and his contemporaries in the media calling for him to get the job

like I said, there’s only Howe and Potter in the premier league that are anywhere near considered, and given Potter’s rep at the moment he’ll be a no go

Carsley said he didn't want the job because he didn't feel ready for it. Since then he has won another U21 Championship and had temporary experience in the job itself. By the time Tuchel leaves I imagine Carsley will be ready to take the job on. Southgate stepped up from the U21's so there is previous in making the step up, and given Carsley has been far more successful than Southgate was in that role, and that many of the U21's he has successfully managed are likely to be features in the England team, he seems an obvious choice to me.
