Carn 71 Posted November 7, 2021 (edited) Given the potential alternative of ending up with one of the glut of merry-go-round footballing dinosaurs I would be more than happy for Lampard to come here. Edited November 7, 2021 by Carn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheGunnShow 5,940 Posted November 7, 2021 Would be rather underwhelmed. I accept the argument that he promoted youngsters at Chelsea, but would point out that this was under the transfer embargo so his hand was rather forced. When actually spending money, relieved from the shackles of the embargo, and indeed trying to get a tune out of them, he struggled somewhat. Then Thomas Tuchel just went in and got them ticking.

But Houghton and Farke were not successful in the EPL. As you once told us winning is more important than anything else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NFN FC 1,123 Posted November 7, 2021 Hell no! I would not be satisfied, he'd be a complete downgrade to Farke and I find the idea appalling. If he became manager I'd not go to another game this season, f that! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alex_ncfc 662 Posted November 7, 2021 I just can't see us sacking Farke to chance it with someone like Lampard who is relatively unproven in management, given the fact we want to try and escape from the bottom 3. It would be a strange move. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mastoola 183 Posted November 7, 2021 I would be happy if Hodgeson came in until the end of the season then Lampard took over from there. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Real Buh 3,432 Posted November 8, 2021 The thing with Frank is he’s a modern day premier league guy. What I’ve wanted to see from norwich for a while and what I saw against Brentford actually was a bit of street smarts. Some gameplay, s41thousery if you will.  everybody does it but us it seems and it puts us at a disadvantage. I’d like to think a new manager would bring in a streetwise attitude. You get no points for being nice in this league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,230 Posted November 8, 2021 Depends on who else is in contention and I mean real contention, not just a Bookies list. Initially I would imagine Webber and Adams will influence team selection with the new coach, well coaching. I'm not sure Lampard would be the right man. I'm not sure Knutsen is either; we haven't got time for him to get up to speed on English football.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BroadstairsR 2,163 Posted November 8, 2021 The way Webber talked, it seems that he is still convinced that we can survive this season. I hope he's right. Lampard, with his status and his connexions within the game, might well be the best bet in achieving this, and most certainly better than all the dinosaurs (Bruce, Alladyce Warnock etc.) mentioned. The Norwegian might spell better prospects for the future, but it's a big ask pitching him into a survival battle in the Premier League when he has only ever managed a small (very) Norwegian outfit. Perhaps this might be where a temporary Hodgson/mentor appointment until the season's end might be appropriate. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now that the dastardly deed is done we might well have something to be positive about today. It will be Webber's second managerial appointment since arriving at Carrow Road, let's hope it is as inspired as the first. The spotlight is firmly on him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
