West Ham nemesis and pantomime villain Richard Keys has finally lost the plot by suggesting Frank Lampard as a replacement for Julen Lopetegui.
The former Sky man can’t seem to resist taking digs at the Hammers from afar, whether it’s labeling the club’s director of football Tim Steidten a “sneaky weasel who can’t be trusted” or goading Irons executive Karren Brady with outdated language.
Keys has been one of the more vocal West Ham critics in the media since his mate David Moyes was not given a new contract at the London Stadium. From a Hammers perspective, it certainly seems he’s been rooting for failure, and once again, he seized the opportunity yesterday to stick the boot in.
Speaking about the club and Lopetegui’s recent troubles, Keys remarked, “West Ham’s problems are all of their own making, and I don’t have an ounce of sympathy for them.” The disgraced former mainstream presenter further prophesised, “It’ll get worse there before it gets better.”
“They’re certainly going in another direction since forcing David Moyes out. It’s just not the one they wanted to go in.”
His suggestion that Lampard could succeed Lopetegui as West Ham coach is either the outlandish notion of someone completely detached from the game or, more likely, another attempt to throw mud in the direction of East London.
Listening to Richard Keys absolute joke of an opinion is an utter waste of time and effort….however, what strikes me as equally bad is the fact that Gonzo is actually repeating it and making it appear more relevant than it is. Giving that opinion more oxygen by posting it here for clicks….that’s the real joke! It seems he is prepared to post anything if it generates income no matter how irrelevant it is!
Who? Richard Keys? He knows nothing and speaks a lot, typical of his brain dead type. Frank Lampard to West Ham is never going to happen,he has burnt his bridges here and has done nothing of note despite what Uncle Harry has to say.
What a nob
He just a piece of stuff you wipe off the bottom of your shoe
At least in West Ham’s case, it will get better.
Maybe this is just to distract from the more important earlier post about Tim being on the brink? 🤔
Idiot isn’t he
Having lived in New Zealand for 23 years until May this year and since then travelling full time around Europe I don’t know much about Richard Keyes. I’ve Googled and it seems he’s not so significant that he should think his opinion matters to much more than himself and maybe his wife. I don’t think I’ve missed much.
Anyone who could seriously suggest Frank Lampard as West Ham manager is only advertising their own ignorance.
Agree JA. He is a first class clown and not worth listening to or reporting on
Keys got banished to the desert for a reason!
Nobody should give him the opportunity to air his ridiculous attention seeking comments.
