Of course Harry is going to defend his nephew.
I just have to say, in the case of Gerrard and Lampard, I like the fact that they're getting humbled.
Look at Arteta, started of as an assistant under Pep. Did that for years before taking on management himself.
Sure, not every successful former player turned manager goes that route, but I have feeling it's a lot harder these days to do that than it was when Souness and Dalglish did it.

In Gerrard's defence it's his first sacking. He might learn from it. For Lampard though, this is two in a row from PL teams. He won't get another until he proves himself.

Fucking hell, Arnaut Danjouma does a last-second U-turn and signs for Spurs instead. That’s after saying this:

Can you blame him when looking at that utter shit show? People have their lives/career to worry about not what they said in the heat of passion !

Not so sure about that ! Many of those utter bellends of Hodgson, Redknapp, Robson, Hughes, Pardew, Warnock and the biggest tosser of the lot ; Allardyce (8 clubs) went on to mange multiple clubs!

True, but they did have some success too. I can't really say the same about Lampard so far.
 
Looking back they must be wondering why the hell they fired Koeman + Ancelotti. Dreams above their station no doubt. Weren't they in the Top 10 at that time?

I remember a bitter mate of mine wanting to have me a bet on who’d finish higher during the summer before red ron was sacked. Before replying I’d just seen the new seasons fixture list, I bit his hand off and asked him to double the bet.

I know everyone has to play each other but they had a consecutive run of teams youd wince at.

They were that far up their own arses on how they were leaving us in their wake with the Mosh money they thought they were gonna be invincible that season.

Easiest money ever.
 


Seriously, you have to think long and hard to come up with a list of 3 managers that are least alike stylistically than those 3. It’s like sitting down at a restaurant and choosing at random between a curry, soupe Élysée or a pretzel.

Dyche all day if they want to avoid relegation. Which I hope they don't.
 
They still have a chip on their shoulder, so they won't pick Dyche and his agricultural approach, even if it is what fits.
 
Bielsa for the shots and giggles as he tries to turn them into Leeds Mk II in half a season and with that squad. Please.
 
Can't see it being anyone other than Dyche. Makes sense for both parties, on so many levels.

Would be fun to have Ralph "0-9" Hassenhuttl have a go though
 
Marcelo Bielsa has arrived in London for further talks with Everton's hierarchy as they search for a successor to Frank Lampard.
The 67-year-old former Leeds United manager is a favoured choice of Everton owner Farhad Moshiri.

Sean Dyche, who has been out of work since being dismissed by Burnley in April, is the other main contender to take over at Goodison Park.
The Toffees hope to have someone in place by the weekend.
 
Their new stadiums coming along nicely tbf.....taken by myself from my office window.

From the Guardian:

Bielsa was the first choice of Everton’s owner, Farhad Moshiri, and flew to London on Thursday to hold further talks with club officials. That raised their hopes of enticing the Argentinian to Goodison Park, despite his reservations over the state of the club and the squad and his record of never taking over a European club mid-season.

The 67-year-old remained unconvinced about taking charge of Everton’s fight against relegation at this stage, however. Bielsa informed Everton he would join now but would work behind the scenes until the end of the season, coaching the under-21s and younger players as the club adapted to his methods. That would have left Everton needing an interim manager for the precarious task of keeping them in the Premier League and was not a situation the club was willing to accept.

The end of negotiations with Bielsa cleared the way for Dyche to succeed Frank Lampard and negotiations started on Friday over what is likely to be a two-and-a-half-year contract for the former Burnley manager.
