It’s funny how shameless it is
LOL wonder what his pay day is? Do they realize he is a fricken dreadful manager? He is so not cut out to manage.
Odds on Lampard somehow bullshitting his way into another managers role?
Can you explain why he’s terrible?
There was a great breakdown by a Villa fan on Reddit but I didn’t save the post. Apart from the obviously terrible results (especially compared to what Emery did with the same players) he also possessed basically every negative trait a manager could have (at least for his Villa stint, I did not follow him in Scotland). Alienated dressing room leaders for no reason, didn’t trust the youth, poor communication with the players, miserable touchline demeanour, hostile towards both fans and journalists, overall negative and pessimistic outlook. I remember he told the media before a game that Chelsea should be coming to Villa Park and wiping the floor with them, for example, which understandably grated the fans.
This was in addition to the on-pitch issues where he put forth puzzling selections, didn’t have a clear gameplan, wasn’t good at using subs and also couldn’t adapt to individual games tactically neither before nor during matches.
Gosh. Thanks.
In some ways it would actually be perfect for Lampard. We’ve seen that he isn’t really a great manager, but at the moment the Saudis likely care more about attracting big names than actual quality.
Could be a win/win for both parties.
Holy fuck, the Saudis are really taking over, aren’t they?
So what’s going on with that? Why are all these Saudi clubs suddenly making major moves this summer?

I guess they want to make the Saudi league super known and famous, and buying big names is a great way to boost popularity.
Better him than Silva
I know things didn’t go well at Villa obviously but he won the Scottish league with Rangers and got good results in the Europa league the same year.
I haven’t followed his managerial career closely but surely he can’t be that terrible?
Al-Ettufaq, more like already fucked themselves. Stevie G is a terrible manager.
