It's so mental that big clubs continue to make appointments like these. He's had ONE YEAR of managerial experience and he's going to get one of the biggest jobs in world football. There is no other area of life where something like this would happen. Only football. Almost all of these sorts of appointments fail yet no one ever seems to learn. Baffling.

I'm not so sure that this isn't seen in other areas of life outside football. He worked for the company for like 20 years or whatever and then went on to management position. Pretty commion actually I would say.

To be fair the likes of Klinsmann, Zidane, Beckenbauer, Gullit, Dalglish had no managerial experience but see your point. I did point out to a Derby fan on Saturday that Lampard took Derby no further than Rowett in losing in the play offs ( a bit tongue in cheek but true), in fact Derby finished a place higher under Rowett despite losing in the semis. I think Lampard made a lot of mistakes last year ( especially at our place) but had a good side to watch with his connections but a massive gamble.

The club have nothing to lose, he can't be blamed for transfers failing, post hazard they may struggle, he will integrate the hundreds of loanees and may actually find a use for some of them. If it doesnt workout the fans cant say I told u so as its fan pressure that has pushed this move through. Good luck to him ,

Agreed, there are some examples where top players have gone on to be good managers (although Klinsmann surely can't be one of them?) but the number of top players who have failed at management is much higher. I agree, they were better to watch under Lampard than under Rowett but the end result was the same and I bet he was considerably more expensive.

Pretty commion actually I would say. Not to this level though. It would be like if Apple had a brilliant designer for many years who they then appointed to be CEO of the whole company. Simply wouldn't happen. Everywhere else, you work your way up in related positions to gain experience. For some reason, chairmen seem to think 'oh he knows the club inside out, he'll be great' but there is so much more to management than that. Solksjaer, Di Matteo, Sherwood, Hughes, Unsworth etc are evidence of this. I can't think of many examples where it's worked.

Klinsmann did an excellent job with the worst German team in modern history taking them to the semis of the WC. Real good job with the USA taking them to the last 16. On the other hand you can list your Bryan Robsons etc but you feel Lampard needs an older head above him .

He did a good job as a man manager with Germany but Joachim Low was the one doing everything else in that set-up. He got sacked after one season at Bayern and Philip Lahm said that the team had to come up with their own tactical plans minutes before games because Klinsmann hadn't a clue.

Sarri's departure confirmed. I dunno what else he could have done. He went to Juventus, a far bigger and better prospect.

Champions League football and a European Trophy ain't bad going. Agree he did well. League cup final too. My exasperation is exacerbated by seeing on Twitter some of their fans saying he should be sacked, and to justify it they just mentioned a few games in which they played crap. As if you can be ace every week. Mind you I've got a mate who supports Man City (old school) who saw some of their fans going mad when they lost at home to Newcastle. Sense of entitlement? Something similar.
