Isn't he universally considered terrible?

From what I've heard, one of Lampard's biggest problems is that he's a phenomenal man-manager and does great with inspiring his teams, but he's tactically weak (compared to other top-tier managers).

Maybe he just needs to cut his teeth with a lower division club (Championship or below). But I think this is his fourth or fifth try. Surely he can't have many more chances before top clubs just avoid him. He needs to take this chance full on and succeed at it. Because he might not get another.

Where is Coventry at these days? I must say I don't really follow English domestic football since the service provider for those games in the Netherlands makes it awful.

I might check MotD every once in a while but I saw Lineker is leaving so that'll most likely drop in quality too

They are in the Championship. I just looked and see they are about 2/3rds off the bottom of the table. It was either last season or the season before that they came really close to promotion back to the PL. They lost they playoff final. They've apparently fallen on a bit of hard times, which I guess explains why they are looking for a new manager.
