So I see that Big Dunc couldn't save Forest Green and only managed something like 6 points from 51. Frank Lampard's stats also make for some shocking viewing. Kolo Toure didn't last long at Wigan either and Potter was just clueless.

Lampard's just shading it for me though, considering the tools he has had at his disposal and he ain't even qualified.
 
It’s Lampard. If Chelsea had 4 fewer points, he would be taking down 2 massive clubs in one season. It’s a historically bad season.
 
Lampard at Everton, Lampard at Chelsea, literally competing with himself for the title.
 
Lampard has put himself in contention as the worst PL manager ever based off this season alone.
 
What is Lampard’s problem? He seems to just be rushing into jobs with the expectation of results without learning how to actually coach.

It's Lampard x 2 this season. Gerrard is runner up as always, followed by Potter.

Not sure Potter deserved to be on that list. He started decent with Brighton. His time at Chelsea was disappointing, but even Tuchel record before his undeserved sacking was not pretty. The issue at Chelsea was much deeper and at a more influential position. Potter is more in the group with Conte that failed to meet the expectation, but not exactly the sole reason for the club declining standard.

Brendan Rodgers is definitely on the list. So is Nathan Jones.

Nathan jones isn’t on the list because they failed as a team and the only success they had under him was because of him.
It’s quite clearly him, most managers tried he just put more pressure on the players instead of deflecting it from the players.

Lampard has somehow tanked two teams, one of whom even worse than before he arrived.

In the interest of fairness, Chelsea were in 10th place when he took over. He hasn’t improved anything but when the time comes to allocate blame around for the shitshow of a season, Lampard’s will be the very smallest of them all.

Potter at least got you some draws and wins, Lampard hasn't. The point stands.
 
Scott Parker can’t escape the list either. He cried and complained about his side not being even close to good enough and they look like they will survive now.

He then, somehow, landed at regular CL and domestically dominant Club Brugge, where he survived 67 days after 2 wins in 12 games.

It really doesn’t but fair enough. Potter had us in 10th after 7 months in charge. Lampard will be way down the list of people at fault for this season.

Quite impressive, wasn’t aware :lol:

What Lampard did this year in Premier League is unprecedented. He was abysmal with two clubs on two different occasions, different squads, different expectations, but he was always way worse than anyone would think it’s possible. Looking at the numbers it’s worse than any sabotage you’d imagine - last 19 games being 1W 2D 16L. I genuinely expect a random lad from the Caf or same teams going managerless would get better result than this. Truly an incredible feat to be this consistently bad, put so disgusting lineups (history will remember 5 defenders 3 DMs) and not even give luck or a gulf of difference in quality a chance. Worst I’ve seen in Premier League for sure and I don’t know how it gets worse than this.
 
Lampards got to be one of the worse managers to manage in the prem. the guys clueless. Even with a decent team he can’t get the best out of them. His interviews are bizzare aswell. One min he’s joking the next he’s got a serious face.
 
Ferguson has to be in with a shout at Forest Green.

Surprised they gave him that long considering how quickly Toure got the boot.
 
It's Lampard closely followed by Lampard second stint at Chelsea.

By far the worse manager in the league.
 
In no order -

Potter
Lampard
Gerrard

Incidentally, all 3 of these were being heralded and hyped as ‘great up and coming English managers’ not so long ago…

Make of that what you will.
 
Potter has underperformed the most, because he has actual ability.

if a lower mid prem club appointed Potter, youd think, hmmm, possible redemption story

if they appointed lampard, gerrard, or jones, youd think, thats a relegation spot booked
 
Lampard.

Walk into any mcdonalds in the country, ask for people to put their hands up if they have watched a football game, and choose one of those at random.

They would be no worse than lampard.
 
Its Lampard and the horrible thing is, with his mates at high levels in the media and with his standing as a player in the game, he'll drop into another PL job in no time.
 
Lampard by a mile. I’m afraid it’s last chance saloon for the Chelsea (player) legend.
 
Lampard is having the worst season any individual coach has had in PL history arguably.
 
Scott Parker got smashed 9-0 at Bournemouth then went to the second-biggest club in Belgium and got 2 wins in 12.

Not the best year for top ex players managing, only Carrick and Kompany are doing well. Lampard, Gerrard, Parker, Toure, Ferguson & Ince all failed miserably. Rooney struggled in the MLS after last year's brave display at Derby as well.
