I am not sure how you guys would feel, but it would be very heartbreaking for me if we fired Super Frank.
It really is awful to go through.

I don't think even the most ardent of Lampard Out supporters would enjoy seeing him get the sack. But, I do think most now recognise it's something that is both likely and necessary.

20 Jan 2021 16:37:49
He will always be a player legend no matter what happens but yes, I will be upset if he gets the tin tac.

I was also upset when Carlo, Conte and strangely Sarri left as well.

20 Jan 2021 16:39:52
I don't think he will be fired just yet. I heard that he will get another few games to turn things around. The board are showing patience because if it was any other manager then im sure it would have been over. I think his status at the club is biding him some time.

After yesterday's performance it is crystal clear who he should play and who he shouldn't. I'm sure he will call back the seniors again I. e. Azpi, Giroud, Kante etc.

I would be gutted, would be a massive kick in the teeth, He speaks so well but it’s not working, the reason and no1 reason I said I didn’t want him getting job n first place, I think he’d of done better with Steve Holland back,

20 Jan 2021 16:58:43
I agree that it is probable that he will be fired, but I hope he still manages to turn things around.

@Shak:
Not sure where you have heard it, but that would be nice.
Dave wouldn't be a regular starter but I think Giroud would be given more minutes.

We do need a regular starting XI though.

@Ash heard it from a couple of guys that are generally pretty decent with Chelsea stuff. IMO if Frank was going to get sacked then im sure it would have been done by now.

I think Reece gave a defensive disaster class yesterday, I love the guy but with so much pressure on I'd be surprised if franks picks him for the next league game. Giroud over Tammy for me but my preference is always Werner.

Regardless of the outcome, Frank will always be my favourite player ever. 💙.

Yes Shak I saw it a few minutes ago too.

I agree about Reece, but Dave is so slow right now and he was exploited against Fulham. I couldn't see him coping well against Neto or any other speedster.

Giroud is not starting material and I agree Werner should start. These new guys need more chemistry together.

You can never have enough leaders in my opinion.

Also leadership can take many forms!

@Matt:

Steve Holland coming back would be massive. It would be awesome if we could somehow get him back.

20 Jan 2021 18:56:28
@ash I agree. Lampard needs to be ruthless and select a squad and run with. May aswel give it one last try without rotation.

20 Jan 2021 19:40:16
I agree Shak. Let's try something different and see what happens.

20 Jan 2021 21:23:59
Yes I would also be very sad if this is has to happen Ashk.

Like TomB and Jimbo I didn't want Conte or Sarri to go, if particularly Conte, partly cos propect of continual manager changes seemed to make building a side that included bringing players through from the academy and creating a sustainable attractive brand of CFC football unlikely. But like many I also initially worried about Frank's lack of experience - and hoped he would appoint an experienced assistant - and that the job had come too soon in his career. But of course backed him and he and the team did better than I had expected last season including in ability to adap tactics, not least to employ a back 3.

Had not expected us to sign so many new players in our bumper transfer market once transfer ban lifted. Almost seems Frank has struggled re selection and formation partly because of this, re working out what the best team was and giving using rotation carefully, though you'd think he'd have worked out best team by now he may think he still has to give players playing time to keep them happy (hence bringing in Rudiger for Zouma in last couple of games) .

Also am worried that we will not necessarily bring in someone better if especially in mid-season.

But yes, would be sad admission of failure of what seemed to be a 3 season FL project, and horrible given his undoubted love of the club and on-pitch legend for us.
