Sky Sports journalist reacts as Frank Lampard mooted for Rangers job amid Clement pressure
Dan Bardell doesn’t think the appointment of Frank Lampard will please Rangers fans if Philippe Clement is to be sacked.
The Belgian is not yet at an immediate risk of losing his job at Ibrox but is at a similar point to when both his immediate predecessors were moved on [The Rangers Review].
This hasn’t stopped potential new managers from being linked with the manager role with the Gers and the Chelsea legend has been one mooted.
Sky Sports and talkSPORT journalist Bardell is unsure of the former Everton boss and how supporters would react if he was appointed by the Light Blues.
Speaking exclusively to Ibrox News, Bardell said: “I think any appointment is a risk and Rangers aren’t in a brilliantly stable position at the minute so they aren’t going to be dining at the top table to get managers in.
“Lampard going in would be different to Gerrard because he joined with very little on his managerial CV in terms of experience.
“Lampard has worked at Derby, Chelsea twice and Everton so I see it being different.
“I just don’t think he is the appointment that would appease Rangers fans, it doesn’t feel realistic to me. I think Rangers fans would want them to go in a different direction.“

Rangers fans to be unsure of Frank Lampard appointment
Clement is certainly under pressure at Ibrox which has only been made worse after the 2-1 defeat against Aberdeen at Pittodrie (30 October).
It can be argued that a League Cup win against Motherwell (3 November) has papered over the cracks but other managers have still been sounded out.
Lampard is one of those and could prove to be someone the supporters get behind, in a similar vein to Steven Gerrard, given his passion as a former player.

Fans may be unsure about the former England international but it will be interesting to see how they would react if the current Light Blues’ boss is sacked and replaced by the ex-Derby County boss.
