The frank lampard Era so far (1 Viewer)

RVN was v much in fashion because he had a good spell at Man U who have since performed poorly. Zooming out, it was a v short term and comparing to Lampard, FL did actually finish in the Top 4 with Chelsea over a full season in difficult circumstances.

Full disclosure: Lampard was a ‘meh’ appointment for me because I was so despondent with sacking Robins and only wanted an unrealistic name (Moyes/Potter/Cooper).

People viewed Lampard’s CV unfairly imo. He did well at Derby and Chelsea in his first spell and did alright at Everton. The latter have only turned a corner since bringing in Moyes who is a top Prem manager. The major blot was his second spell at Chelsea where he walked into a bad situation and Lampard has reflected on that in interviews. He probably was parachuted into the Prem too soon and probably was a little bit out of his depth but he’s probably learned a lot from those experiences. Which is great for us.

His spell with us will completely reshape the harsh narrative about his career and my gut feeling is that Lampard is fully invested into the project here. At some point, he’ll leave if the right opportunity comes about but can’t see him running back to Chelsea at their beck and call.

He used his time out of management wisely and looks much better for it. He’ll have thought very carefully about which job he eventually accepted too, which leads me to agree he’ll be here for a bit longer than perhaps we thought.

Getting a club like our own to the Prem is a great project. If we go up and win the league unexpectedly, we could go up, play the ‘right way’ an elite European team could still offer him a job. That’s why happened with Kompany.

I’m just not worried about the likes of Rangers, West Ham, Forest and Southampton hijacking him.
