And I think Lampard coming in until end of the season makes sense for all parties. Lampard's reputation can't get worse as gonna be hard to have Chelsea do even worse. And if he goes on a decent run or somehow has some success in the CL his stock goes up. And for Chelsea gives them time to make a good decision on long term coach.
It only makes sense for Fat Frank.

If his name wasn't Lampard he would be lucky to get a championship job and now he gets to manage in CL semi-final :hhh:

win a league or two and possibly the CL, then do it all over again when things go south.

words of a true fan.

the reality is nothing like that. chelsea have had how many managers since rom took over? 15 proper (incl mou twice).

in that time you won 2 CL's and only mou, conte and ancelotti have won the league.

11/14 managers no league and the vast majority no CL ...

Also multiple domestic cups, two Europa Leagues and a club world cup.

How many English teams have won as much during that period? One or two if that?

Did Chelsea underachieve under Roman? Of course. Still won a lot though.
