Chelsea: Has Frank Lampard lost his post as manager sooner than expected?
The Monday Blues has Chelsea and Frank Lampard. Not even an FA Cup win was enough to keep him in his post as manager of the Premier League club.
It was just not to be for Frank Lampard and Chelsea following Monday’s news of him getting the boot at Stamford Bridge.
A string of poor performances that has the Blues placed 9th in the EPL standings, only five points off from fourth place – was ultimately the reason why the Blues legend has been sacked midway through the season.
🗣 "Frank hasn't been allowed to the training ground this morning or this afternoon to say his goodbyes."

Roman Abramovich has no patience and he hates time wasting
Roman Abramovich, known for his impulsive decision-making and demand for excellence, failed to disappoint with his decision to cut ties with the Englishman.
Although, the reason for him acting so swiftly could be due to the top tier managers available to pick from.
The club did express how difficult the decision was but nobody’s being fooled, as this is quite the norm for the billionaire bully Abramovich and the London club.
Since 2003 and Including Lampard’s axing, Abramovich has been through 14 different managers.
Talk about a quick turnaround.
