French press is linking the unofficially former PSG coach with the Blues in case of another bad performance from Lamps tonight.

Thoughts? 

To my opinion I think It is too early to talk about it but we can imagine that Lamps will be under pressure If things won't get better... 

If so, Tuchel would be a logic choice, we were linking with him before Sarri's arrival. But I am a bit scared with his experience in PSG even If It's not easy to manage players like Neymar and Mbappe as PSG's policy is to protect their superstars instead of their coach. 

Let's see what happens. 

Don't know if this means 'no' to any manager, as in Lampard is not in any danger, or 'no' as in no to Tuchel specifically

To quote Bricktop,  " You are on thin ****ing ice, my pedigree chums, and I shall be under it when it breaks!"

If Tuchel is so great, why did PSG sack him?

I think he would be a disaster for the club, especially with his history of fiery relationships with owners/boards of clubs he's coached.

Yeah I’ll honestly laugh so hard if we sack Lampard and get this guy in.

Give him a year or two and he’ll fall out with the board Conte style. What’s the point?

He's the guy that was basically crying when Mbappe was in doubt against Atalanta, while still having Neymar, Icardi, Draxler and so on... He's pretty bad if you ask me, I would prefer John Terry over him.

I agree. He has achieved some success but mostly domestically with PSG. Overall his credentials are no more impressive than Emery and look how well that turned out for Arsenal.

To be fair, PSG is just like Chelsea when it comes to sacking managers for very dumb reasons. They didn't like an interview he gave to German press.

Still wouldn’t touch him though; rather just let Lamps see out the rest of the season. Marco Rose, Nagelsmann, Hasenhuttl & Fonsceca are better options in the summer.

All those foreigny names! Isn't Walter Smith available?

The people saying Tuchel is bad clearly dont watch much football at all. Maybe leave the pubs every now and then and watch some football from a different league.

He got a team like Mainz promoted and into european football in a year... Not to mention how good he is with youth players as well as shown at his stint at Dortmund when he got talents like Pulisic and Dembele flying.

He's a good manager, and already has a good history with the likes of Pulisic and Thiago Silva. He also plays pretty good football, and doesn't just spam crosses like Lamps.

At least someone else appreciates he is a very good manager.

But clearly not that good otherwise PSG wouldn't have just sacked him!!

On the one hand you take a dig at people not understanding the managerial prowess of Tuchel yet at the other other hand you dismiss and underplay Lampards managerial ability, someone who managed to get us top 4 whilst integrating our youth into our first 11.

I will be probably the first to admit that I'm wrong. I only watched him in PSG so I might be missing something.

Based on how everyone was so sh*t last year outside of Liverpool, thats very overstated. We only got top 4 because of teams like Leicester and Spurs choking, we finished behind a dire Utd team ffs but nobody seems to mention that.

Also funny how everytime there's a reply to me or I get mentioned in a negative way, that old bum @yorkleyblue can't help but "like" that comment, pretty pathetic if you ask me. No balls to say anything straight up

Then you probably shouldn't comment on him just based on that. he was very very good at mainz and Dortmund. Being PSG manager doesnt really show anything as the league is just so easy, so you can only judge them on the champions league, and in all fairness he did take them to a final which they've never done before.

I never really rated Lampard, this job was far too early in his career for him to take.

Of course I loved the idea of Lampard taking over and taking us to league titles and trophies, but that was nothing more than a pipe dream, he's way out of his depth.

Throwaway comments like that are meaningless and so easy to make.

He wasn't way out of his depth when he got us top 4 and to an FA Cup final last season, despite a very depleted squad with the transfer ban, but he is now?

And so all successful managers, even the likes of Klopp, Pep, Mourinho, Conte etc - when they go a season without a trophy or lose a few games or lose a game badly, does that mean they are out of their depth too? 

Some folk are just never happy and always looking for the next best thing like a kid in a sweetshop.

We get a lot of those, @Nibs. Know everything, no patience and want it all and want it NOW!!!!

Unless they can come up with anything sensible or even mildly thought out, I just ignore the f**kers.

Sadly, they rarely do. 

I blame Kenyon.

Regardless of circumstances he did achieve top 4, if you magnify any achievement you can always find external influences which impacted the outcome but the reality is he achieved his target and therefore has earnt the right to turn the ship around this season.

Getting sacked at PSG has to be a pretty big lowpoint. 

So even if he has done well in his previous teams, he doesn't look like he could be better than Lampard.
