Normally, with such huge transfer spending in the summer, a Chelsea manager would have faced the sack, but here is Frank Lampard managing to stay in the dug out at the bridge.
While many feel Chelsea’s appointment of Frank Lampard is sentimental just like Ole Gunnar Solksjaer, it may not be far from the truth.
If Frank Lampard is sacked at this point, which top coach is free to be hired. Thomas Tuchel who was just sacked would not be willing to take any top position.
Pochettino who was touted to be the coach of any of the leading premier league clubs, with Manchester United and Chelsea swirling around, have now been appointed by Paris Saint German.
A change in the dug out would not put the Blues back in the title race, but might forestall further slipping.
