Frank Lampard

Ovog ljeta ugovor ističe sljedećim igračima: Gary Cahill, James McArthur, James McCarthy, Wayne Hennessey, Mahmadou Sakho, Christian Benteke, Patrick Van Aanholt, Stephen Henderson, Andros Townsend, Scott Dann, Martin Kelly, Nathaniel Clyne, Joel Ward, Connor Wickham i Jeffrey Schlupp. Ima da dovede komplet novi tim.

Van aanholt sigurno ide, nisam citao o ostalim.

Plus bi i Zaha mogao otići, dosta je ovde škarta, nije ni šteta što idu. Ako ništa, Lamps je dokazao da zna da radi sa mladim igračima. Ako dođe u CP vjerujem da će mu Chelsea poslati bilo kojeg igrača koji je dostupan za posudbu, makar bi to bilo dobro i za nas i za njih. Ima tu kvalitetnih momaka, recimo Gilmour ili Gallagher da im drže sredinu, za obojicu bi posudba bila odlična jer sam siguran da bi ušetali u prvih 11. Iako bi Billya više volio da mi forsiramo.

 

Odbrana Guehi koji je dokazan u Championshipu ili Sarr iz Porta. Mogu i Michya otkupiti nikakav problem :D

Također Ampadu, može da uđe u prvih 11, bolje to nego da trune kod nas ako se ne uklopi u Tuchelove planove odmah na pocetku

Ma ispadaju oni sljedeće godine, on bi od Terrya napravio Ben Haima.

Ma ispadaju oni sljedeće godine, on bi od Terrya napravio Ben Haima.

Što je onda napravio igrače od Reecea, Mounta, Gilmoura mogu reći i Tammya ? 

Govorio sam od Terrya zato sto odbranu ne zna postaviti, primali smo gol i po po utakmici i niko mu nije valjao. I ni Reece nije Bog zna nesto valjao pod njim.

Taj prelaz sa starih igrača na mlade i sa defanzivnog fudbala na nešto ofanzivnije uz puno novih igrača neće biti nimalo lak zadatak za bilo koga. Trebat će mu dosta vremena i sigurno će biti u borbi za opstanak. U ligu ulaze jače ekipe od ovih koji su ispali.

Prvi potez Cahillu kapitenska traka.

Mislim da Palace ima bogate vlasnike ali su Amerikanci :D Tako da bi mogli dati para za pojačanja...

Mislim da je on vice captain odmah poslije Luke

Izabran u Hall of Fame.

 

U ovoj turi su sa njim još Cantona i Keane. Bit će još trojica. Očito idu po abecedi.

Lampard o otkazu, Tuchelu...

 

Matt Law, Telegraph

 

Whether it be the winners’ medal he found in a shoe, the supporters who still sing his name and idolise him for his service as a player and head coach, or his entry into the Premier League Hall of Fame, reminders of his special connection with Chelsea are never too far away for Frank Lampard.

That bond has not been diminished by his sacking, despite admitting that his pride initially took a hit and readying himself, as he has always done, for the next challenge and restarting his managerial career away from Stamford Bridge.

“I have to say that when you lose your job it’s hard,” said Lampard. “Anyone who says anything differently is a liar. It’s not the truth. There’s an element of pride, you’re working towards something one day and then it’s taken away from you. That’s life. You have to be a realist about it. 

“Very quickly the dust has to settle and one of the biggest things for me, living in Chelsea, a mile from the ground, is that I walk around and see Chelsea fans all of the time. You do wonder what the reaction will be because you’ve lost your job, will they be happy with what you did or not? And I think it made me realise even more, the bond I had with them from my playing days but also what they saw, what I was working towards in season one [as head coach], up until the point where I left in season two. I was working with a real vision because I care about the club.

“I wouldn’t have gone into the job without a full understanding that at some stage I might leave in whatever circumstances. I didn’t go into it with just a full heart, wanting to go back to Chelsea after a year managing at Derby. I went into it with a full head and realising what an opportunity it was. Would it last forever? History tells you probably not. 

“I’ve come to terms with the fact that my managerial career just carries on and the beautiful thing is that I have come away from the club that I love, played at for so long and I’ve still got some really strong connections and I love that side of it.”

The past three months, since losing his job as Chelsea head coach at the end of January, have given Lampard a rare chance for reflection and the opportunity to find new employment as the family bin man, while also spending time with wife Christine and their young children, Patricia and Freddie, who was born in March, and his older daughters Isla and Luna.

“It’s been a nice couple of months just to take in, being with a baby, not working and completely throwing yourself into that and I’ve enjoyed that side and that’s been a big plus,” said Lampard.

“The shock has been how often I’ve been called upon to do the house chores. Dishwasher, the rubbish, I’m the rubbish man, taking it out every Monday and Thursday.”

Induction into the Hall of Fame, alongside Thierry Henry, Alan Shearer, Eric Cantona, Roy Keane and Dennis Bergkamp, has brought back memories of all the highs for a footballer who was never the best player in his age group at the start of his career, but who was a record-breaker, a Premier League and Champions League winner, and a Ballon d’Or runner up by the end of it. An unexpected reminder also came when Lampard was tidying his shoes.

“I was cleaning out my shoes recently and I found one of my Premier League winners’ medals in a shoe,” said Lampard, laughing. “I probably tucked it in with a hangover the morning after an end of season do and forgot about it, and I found it in my shoe. 

“So you can probably tell I’m not huge into displaying my medals. I’m big into what’s next, where do you move on to and I don’t feel the real need to see so many reminders.

“But it’s pretty humbling (being inducted into the Hall of Fame) and it gives me a personal amount of pride. An award like this made me remember moments in my early career and people I should be thanking for helping me up the ladder. I had a great work ethic and I had a relative talent that I pretty much maximised, but it would have been nothing without Harry Redknapp at West Ham, Claudio Ranieri bringing me to Chelsea with Jose Mourinho taking me to another level, I could go on and on. 

“As a kid, I was generally the second or third best player in any real team I played for, whether it be West Ham U12s, U16s, when I was at Arsenal and Tottenham training. 

“So I had this feeling that I forever needed to do more to get to where I wanted to be. I think that was a real strength, but I also did have a strong understanding of things I could improve on and things I could do to maximise myself as a midfielder. I look back and say ‘I wasn’t the quickest, I wasn’t the most skillful and all those things, so I must have had something’. And I think the work ethic and my understanding of the game were two of my biggest strengths.”

Those are strengths that Lampard has also called upon in his managerial career with Derby County, who he took to the Championship play-off final, and Chelsea, where he achieved qualification to the Champions League and reached last season’s FA Cup final after the club had lost Eden Hazard and served a transfer ban.

Chelsea had qualified from the group stages of the Champions League and completed a 17-game unbeaten run before falling down to ninth in the Premier League table when he was sacked. There have been suggestions since, even pushed by midfielder Jorginho, that the Chelsea job came too soon for Lampard, but he insists that age and experience would not have changed the rules of engagement. 

“It’s always going to be a fact as a manager when you leave a club, there will be some players who did not play so much and they might have a feeling or a judgement on how you work and they can make statements,” said Lampard. “For me, I have to expect that as much as I expect the good statements from players who are really positive about how you work. I’ve got no big issue with that. 

“I’ve seen some quotes saying that Frank Lampard took this job with his heart. I absolutely didn’t. I don’t make any professional decisions with my heart. Maybe I’m the absolute opposite of that. I’ll go over them a hundred times in my head, but I certainly didn’t with my heart. I took it with a pragmatic view of: ‘what’s the situation? OK, this is Chelsea, I’m going from Derby to Chelsea.’ Not many managers would turn that down head or heart, let’s get it right. 

“If I was to come back to Chelsea at 55 years of age, with titles behind me, I think the rules would be the same. There is an expectation to perform, and to win and if you don’t then you might leave the club. I went into it knowing how I want to manage. From the 20 years of playing, the great managers I worked under, the year in the media where I looked at myself, where I wanted to be and if I wanted to go into management.

“After my year at Derby, I was pretty clear that I wanted to go into Chelsea, make them move the ball quicker, make them penetrate lines quicker. I wanted to go and do my thing and try to bring through some younger players into the team. I did that. I didn’t get to the end game, but I certainly think I did a lot of things that I can be proud of.

“In hindsight, it’s so easy to look back and talk about team selection or choices you made. There were small details I would look at where I could have done certain things differently. It’s important to analyse yourself and to think about how you might change in the future. 

“I come away with an overall feeling of pride in what I did in the job. I wanted to stay longer, I wanted real tangible success which, at Chelsea, is winning cups and winning leagues, but it didn’t happen. Hopefully, from where I took over the job, I’ve laid down strong foundations for the future and in the context of where I wanted my managerial career to go, it was an amazing experience.”

 

Lampard has been struck by the messages he has received from other managers since leaving Chelsea, including Brendan Rodgers who perhaps offers the best example of why it would be unfair and unwise to write the 42-year-old off after one sacking.

Like Lampard, Rodgers made a big jump, from Swansea City to Liverpool, before being dismissed and has since proved his ability at Celtic and now at Leicester City.

“I actually spoke to Brendan maybe a month after I left Chelsea,” said Lampard. “He had some real words of wisdom because our paths had been relatively similar.

“I think Brendan is a great example. He went to Celtic, had huge success there and now what he’s done at Leicester has been very visible. So he stands out. Stevie (Gerrard) went to Rangers and now he has shown that when you are backed and have support around you and you’re great at what you do, then you can bring huge success.

“A lot of the common theme that comes back from other managers is about structure, the set-up, the timing of what you are going into, you have to take all those things into account but I hope to get those opportunities in front of me.

“I’m not rushing into anything, but if the opportunity arises and it’s the right one, then I want to work again. It’s something I love doing, I love working in management, even more than I thought I would do.”

Thomas Tuchel revealed in his first press conference as Lampard’s successor that his predecessor had sent him a good luck message and the German last week recognised the part Lampard played in Chelsea’s runs to this season’s FA Cup and Champions League finals.

 

“I just felt it [the message] was the right thing to do,” said Lampard. “I think as you mature, realising going to Chelsea the job might not last forever, things will change around you and for me the only way to have long-term success and actually to do the right thing is by acting right and showing people the right respect.

“I remember Tuchel leaving PSG and it was the talk of the training ground when we came in one day, as we had a lot of French-speaking players, and then he came to Chelsea. I haven't met him at all, but the right thing to do was to wish him luck with the club that I played for for so long and had just managed. 

“He’s obviously a top-class manager and I appreciated his words last week. I was pleased to hear them because I think it's right. I'm not just giving myself credit. But if I was in his shoes, I would certainly speak like that so he's giving me credit for the first half of the season and I'll give him credit for taking it on and reaching two finals and being in contention for the top four. I would happily meet him. He’s much busier than me at the minute, so I'll leave him be for the next couple of weeks!”

Kakva legenda, kakva ljudina. Jedva cekam kada nas opet preuzme.

Au kakav tekst, poslije otkaza ga baš nigdje nije bilo. Na ig je samo objavio kad je dobio kćer i to je to, ništa više  a baš sam pratio hoće li išta da kaže. Sve do jučer kad je ušao u Hall of Fame.

 

Volio bih da se digne i opet vrati, možda nakon Tuchela, možda sa Terryem, kakav bi to duo opet bio...

Pojavio se i West Brom kao potencijalni kandidat za trenersko mjesto.

Mislim da ne ide nikako iz Chelsea koji se bori za top 4 i igra LŠ da pređeš u WBA u Championshipu

Palace je daleko najrealnija opcija. Druga opcija je klub čijeg trenera odvede Tottenham. Pošto Arsenal svog izgleda ne planira mijenjati.

Za njega bi najbolja opcija bio Sautempton.

Ma Newcastle stvoren za Lampsa, nije zato što ih ja gotivim :D

Zavrsit ce na kraju u britaniji van engleske

Nuno odlazi na kraju sezone iz Wolvesa, možda bi mu ovo bila dobra prilika da se vrati na trenersku poziciju. Naravno ako su ovi zainteresirani za njega.

Nije mu Mendes agent, stiže tamo neki Portugalac sigurno

Moguće je da će ganjati menadžera Sportinga, Porta ili tako nešto

Ali zašto ne i Lampard, njemu bi isto dobro legli Wolwesi samo da ne raspordaju pola ekipe nako realno jako loše sezone. Tanko je to sve izgledalo kada pogledaš tim na papiru

Šefe hvala ti na ovim mladićima.

Hvala ti Frank, da nam se vratis kada god mognes.

Gledam Drogba, terry, Ballack, ivanovic, jedan pedro, oscar itd se oglasilk, pozeljeli srecu prije utakmice nakon utakmice cestitali a lampard nista.

Yebi ga. Igrao je i za city pa sto veli da ih ne uvrijedi.

Jedan terry u aston villi a kaci po IG chelsea.


Terry i drogba pa svi ostali
