Really don’t know what Leicester were expecting this year. Lost their manager and best player start of the summer.

The Lesta fans I know said it's more about the lackluster performances under Cooper.

Seems to get sacked a lot. Don't want him, comes across a bit clueless

3 play off finals, won 1.
There's no manager we've been linked with with that sort of Championship pedigree

He is. He only got Forest up when they were the worst team in the play off final

Forest stayed up in large part cos of their owner. Spent loads. We had experts on here laughing saying you can't buy so many players in one transfer window and expect to gel and that cov should never do that if we ever got up

Well they did and look at them now.

Not that you can say cooper didn't do anything of course. He's got a good c.v wouldn't mind him but I just wanna see lampard era now that we have spoke about it for so fucking long just out of curiosity

Fans players of Swansea, Forest Leicester say he doesn't seem to have a system and gets found out which is why he doesn't last

If we're going off what fans of previous clubs,say you should read some of the stuff I've seen on forums about Lampard.

Yes I've read them and not great, he's never had a long run at club, hopefully he'll want to commit without jumping ship the minute a bigger job comes along

I understand why Forest and Leicester fans would say such things… Did Swansea fans miss what happened to them after he left them?

His work in the Championship at Swansea and Forest was fantastic and that's not accounting for his body of work elsewhere e.g. England U20s.

If he put his name into the hat for our job, we’d be foolish not to consider him.

His work in the Prem may be a negative, but ultimately the first job at hand is promotion to the league.

I doubt it, but if he's jumping ship because things have gone well here then I can live with that.

What's the average length of a managers tenure these day? Probably less than 2 years?

Did well at Forest and has done really well with a weak squad at Leicester. I'd take him here, probably a preference to the likes of Lampard tbh.

He’s been there 14 matches…nobody should think he’s done a good job. His management style hasn’t gone down well at Leicester. No thanks, he’ll be a step back.

It’s irrelevant because he never managed them in the Prem, but I was convinced Maresca wouldn’t have done a much better job.

I’ll put a different slant on it. Would you take Lampard over him at Leicester?

Cooper has not been on TV enough to be considered by King. Lampards punditry credentials really put him in the shade.

Indeed, Swansea to the play offs once or twice? Forest were in a worse position than us when he took over there

Cooper would be a great pickup. Completely insane to think otherwise.
I'd imagine we're too far along with Lampard at this point though.

Would think it would be a good pick up but if people are to believed Lampard has already signed up
