I mean I get why they decided to hire Lampard on short term before getting a new manager. Look at how much Potter probably cost us with the hire and fire, they probably don't want to make a rash decision. At the end of the day it is a business and they have to be smart about spending so much on managerial appointments, they don't want to make the same mistake twice. Hopefully they can make the best decision with the directors in place.
As for the CL this season, well we have a history of winning it with an interim ex Chelsea player... you just never know, football is weird sometimes.
