Good to see serious people like Gerrard & Lampard take on managerial jobs. United legends who claim to know all about management won't follow that path. They are too busy name dropping Sir Alex & illegitimizing United managers till one of them gets the job & destroy the club.

Lampard going to manage Derby county. Good stuff. I wish him success in that league because Derby county may not have the money to throw around next season. So we get to see Frank's managerial brilliance.
FL was my favorite Chelsea player so now I'm a Derby county fan.

Why are Chelsea not appointing him as Manager? I can't believe they are letting this big chance pass them by https://t.co/QxB82LgTvr

Will be good to see Lampard as a manager.Derby also looks a good fit. Looks like he might be able to hack it. Doesn't sound like he knows it all because he won some titles as a player like Gary Neville does. I will be rooting for him to succeed.
