lampard is a complete and utter cuunt
And Lampard, who clashed with the Portuguese during his time at Stamford Bridge, says Villas-Boas has a tough act to follow in north London.“AVB has inherited an exceptional squad ofplayers," he told The Sun.
“A squad that’s good enough to bring Champions League football and contend for the Premier League title. A team that’s played some terrific, thrilling attacking football and scored goals for fun.
“So AVB is a lucky man taking over at Spurs because the players are so very good. Admittedly that can be a double-edged sword, though.
“Because Harry Redknapp will be an extremely tough act to follow. Harry lifted Spurs to an amazing level.
“The way he turned that club around was remarkable. They were at absolute rock bottom when Harry came in.
“Then all of a sudden they’re playing in the Champions League and competing at the very top. So he did an incredible job there and he definitely didn’t deserve to lose his job.
“That’s why I was really surprised when Harry left. He did wonders at Tottenham and I thought him leaving was a terrible shame.”
The 33-year-old also expressed his belief that Villas-Boas will have improved as a manager by learning from his disastrous spell at Chelsea.
“AVB didn’t do well at Chelsea but it was not for the want of anyone trying," he continued.
“He wanted to succeed, he wanted to do it his way. But it just didn’t work. Not because of any battle between me and him, there was a lot more to it than that.
“He had his plans for the team and that meant me not playing as much as before. That was just one part of it, the problems were far bigger and broader than that.
“But as a player you learn off every manager whether they are good, bad or indifferent. I definitely learned in different ways from Andre. It was an interesting time.
“I was always used to having a great relationship with my managers. Everyone I had worked previously with.
“Not having that suddenly made it pretty tough for me at the time. It makes you stop and think, it makes you re-evaluate everything you are doing.
“That’s not necessarily a bad thing. Now maybe he will be a better manager, a better person for his experience at Chelsea.”
The England international went on to reveal that he is looking forward to coming up against his former boss when the two London sides meet in the Premier League.
“Yes, AVB now being at Spurs will give those derby games even more of an edge," he said.
“They are pretty edgy anyway but this will add even more. When I see him I’ll shake his hand and wish him all the best. But then I will try my best to beat him.”
You better be talking about Fabianski...

Whats going on with Tom Carroll, saw him one time in the Europa league and he was excellent, thought he would make more of an impact than he has so far.

We sent him out on loan to shit teams that dont play ball, so it was a waste of time...
Sherwood has said our whole loan system is being review for the new season because all harry wanted to do is just ship all the youngers out wherever without consideration.
Tim Sherwood on our use of the loan system
Sherwood's role
Much has already been written about Tim Sherwood, our Technical Co-ordinator (at the time of writing!), with many anticipating that he will be promoted to a Technical Director/Director of Football style role.
As it stands, though, Sherwood is still very much focused on bridging the gap between our Development Squad (essentially those who have progressed beyond the U18s, either due to age or ability), and the first-team. Part of his remit, as we know, is to manage the loan players - ensuring that they are sent out to an appropriate loan club and properly handled when there.
Previous approach to loans
In a telling interview last week, Sherwood told Alex Aldridge (@accordingtoaldo) fromNewsAtDen:
"I will sit down with the new manager and talk in more depth about his philosophy on loaning younger players. But I think there might be a change of tack, because we don't really learn anything from sending players to the Championship for a second time."It is quite clear, then, that the Manager/Head Coach's view on the loan system is a vital when it comes to decision-making. We know that Redknapp was a big fan of players going out on loan - in this interview with The National, he spoke of the young players he managed at West Ham, saying:
"I have always felt it is far better for talented teenagers to go out on a longish loan spell to a club lower down the leagues where they come up against seasoned pros and have the opportunity to play lots of games rather than sit on the bench or play in games that might come too easy for them."The problem with the approach taken last year (seemingly based on the above) was that we seemed too quick to get as many players out as possible with, it seemed, little thought as to the selected club. Whilst some players got regular action, others (Carroll, Mason, Khumalo, Bostock, Oyenuga, etc) were struggling to get regular games due to being either unsuited to the loan club's style or indeed to the league that they were sent to play in.
It seems as though lessons have now been learnt, and Sherwood's comment illustrates that we are prepared to lean from experience and change the way that loans are managed.
Harry Kane
The interview was primarily about Harry Kane potentially returning to Millwall for the coming campaign, and Sherwood revealed that this would be unlikely:
"We don't think there's any value in loaning Harry out to the Championship again. He's ticked that box. He may need a few more games if he's not in the frame at Tottenham, but he's going to be given every opportunity to prove himself to the new manager.If the manager decides he's not ready, that would be the only time we would consider loaning him out. But as we stand, we're not looking to loan him."Villas-Boas will want to be able to have a close look at Kane in pre-season and potentially use him in the Europa League prior to making a decision on where he will spend the majority of the season.
Loanee clubs
Interestingly, Sherwood also gave some insight as to how Millwall were chosen as a destination - and it does seem to be a case of "who you know not what you know":
"I know Kenny Jackett because we played together at Watford, so there's a connection there. Millwall is a good move for our young boys because it gives them experience and it's local."However, he was also quick to point out that even a "tried and tested" loanee club will not suit every player:
"Sometimes it works out, as with Kane, but sometimes it doesn't, as with Mason."This, in my opinion, is the crux, and the key aspect of Sherwood's job; Ryan Mason, the talented number 10, has not had too much luck out on loan, and it might be that he is a player who will be better off amidst the Development or even first-team squad, learning from Villas-Boas and his team. It's Sherwood who ultimately has to make these decisions - which players are suited to loans (and where), which are better off within the confines of the club - and also to pull players back when things are not going to plan (as happened a couple of times last season).
f*ck*ng wow at that lampard statement

LOOL
These sideman players who aren't good enough to get a look in always try diss a manager when he leaves lol, AVB is going to do the exact same thing to him lool.
fam they was only the first 11 players and maybe 3 of 4 subs who got game time last season.
certain guys were going training for no reason, clearly knowing they aint gonna play
Bentley going to get a chance under Villas Boas yeah?
Lloris is good but isn't built for the Prem
Luis Martins as 1st team coach .(aleast Villas Boas got to make this choice and I can safely say he won't snake him like Di Matteo did)
