Leicester City on Tuesday night defeated Chelsea by 2 -0 in the match played at the king power stadium.
This latest defeat adds to Frank Lampard’s pains and could spell the end of the former midfielder, now the coach.
Frank Lampard has been able to explain Chelsea’s drastic decline but has proven incapable of arresting it.
He may well be a club icon but so far, his Blues side had to at the very least show clear signs of improvement this season in order to convince Roman Abramovich that he was the right man to bring success back to Stamford Bridge.
It wasn’t much to ask for a club of this status. The manager gets to work with arguably the world’s best academy and was allowed to spend £220 million ($275m) in the transfer market on exciting talents like Timo Werner, Kai Havertz and Hakim Ziyech.
For Lampard, that spending spree was a reward for qualifying for this season’s Champions League despite being hindered by a transfer ban ahead of the 2019-20 campaign. However, he is now a man under intense pressure, and he knows it.
He may only be 18 months into the job but his rhetoric has changed dramatically of late. He is pleading for patience and asking fans to readjust their expectations.
