Frank Lampard is the new Chelsea manager: https://twitter.com/ChelseaFC/status/1146697129328545792

I think he was the only manager willing to accept the job while not being to make any signings, so it's not like Chelsea had no other choice but to offer him a contract...IMO he won't last too long, looking forward to see who gets the sack first: him or Solskjaer.

LOL

Yeah, I think Solksjaer will get sacked first, possibly around Xmas/New Year. Lampard MIGHT get 1 season without being judged because they cant sign anybody. If Lampard gets top 4 then I think Abramovich will accept that considering they lost Hazard & are unable to sign players.

Do either of you wanna make a fun bet on who gets the sack first? I'll go with Lampard. 10 bucks.

And it should literally be who gets the sack first even if it lasts multiple seasons.

You will surely lose.
Lampard has the full support of the board a they recognize that he came to help the club in a difficult situation because nobody other manager was willing to come to Chelsea without the option of signing players.

Yes you are right, the board recognizes the difficult position they are in but every coach has the support of the club and management when they are initially recruited. However alot is against him and with hazard leaving & lampards relative lack of coaching experience I doubt he will be with Chelsea more than a season. Maybe, just maybe a season and a half.

Also let's say by a miracle he makes top 4,that doesn't mean he can't be sacked. It will just add more days to his stay at Chelsea. I wish him the best though.
