More Klopp than Mourinho! Inside Lampard's Chelsea revolution https://www.goal.com/en-us/amp/news/more-klopp-than-mourinho-inside-lampards-chelsea-revolution/bkzujj7vve7a1px954cmzqlnd Interesting read.

Come on, Lampard!!! Welcome back

Yeah man, keep clutching at straws. I think he has made it clear several times. He loves Chelsea. He has always loved Madrid. Ffs, Madrid aren't even traditional rivals. We beat them in the European super cup ages ago, but that's it. Not sure why fans are getting so worked up about things like these.

I might be thinking heart over head here.., but it has always been a longitme dream that one of DD, JT, Lamps would one day manage the club. Am never going to say no, if that is indeed a possibility. Like Drogba himself said : “I think it is a very good option for the club. “Is he ready for the job? Well, when is he ever going to be ready?" “Does he have to wait until he is 40 or 50 to be ready? I think it depends on your experience and depends on your desire to succeed and do it. “If he feels ready I don’t think it is too early. Every summer is big at Chelsea. Every summer is big.”

True, you will not catch Hazard doing what Courtois is doing now. And lot of idiots trying to stir the pot, including a few shitty tabloids trying to rub it into the face of Chelsea fans., that he's gone to Madrid. And what do you expect..clubs like Madrid and Barca unfortunately also come with a lot of bandwagon fans..most of which have probably taken notice of Hazard only after the world cup. Only Chelsea fans, and to a lesser extent, EPL fans, fully appreciate what Hazard has done. You look at all of Hazards presentation videos in Madrids channels, a lot of the comments are from Chelsea fans saying thanks We care about our legends. That's why so many of them keep coming back.

So much this. If I wanted something out of the transfer window, that we couldn't manage with our reserves or our loan army, it would be a goal scoring CF.

Might alter Sarris 433 to a double (yuck) pivot. With Kante playing closer to him.

Lampard, Jody Morris...maybe even Drogba if he's interested in helping out with coaching. If we're really going to rely on the youth as the case seems for next season then let's do that

Fickle minded fans everywhere, but I think Lampard has a better chance than most. Mourinho continued to have support even after dragging the club into the relegation zone

Granted, the fans were a bit harsh on him when he moved. But now he's just acting like a clown, trying to rile up the supporters. Glad Hazard wont get in on his act.

Sorry, but not sure why we need to take parting swipes at players who gave their best and achieved a lot at the club. Hazard was loyal to Chelsea throughout his time here. If someone brings up his media comments to suggest that it seriously impacted our games, I'll just laugh. How about.. just say thank you and move on, if theres nothing better to say? I hope Chelsea does well. I hope he does well. If Chelsea meets Madrid, I hope we kick their arse. That's it.

Interesting choice if it were to happen...definitely sounds more inspiring than Allegri or some of the other names thrown about.

Ask for a freeze. Dont wait. Reputation or even a slightly longer ban wont matter if we cant sign anyone worth a damn. This summer, while we are still in the Champions league, is our best bet to sign any decent players Do not risk waiting

Great stuff The Coles in charge of the youth squad, Ballack a brand ambassador, Cech potentially a DOF...wonder where Lamps, JT and DD are going to come in.

Hope it's not Allegri.. The youth players, especially the ones currently out injured, will be stuck in limbo again, as a brand new manager with no familiarity with the Chelsea youth, will have his own favorites.

Jose Mk III...is it meant to be?

Injuries...dont forget the injuries to key players too

Lol..they're really making an article about offhand comments Hazard made more than a year ago? Wonder if Madrid fans will read the Mirror and get amped up

I think Chelsea can take a lot of pride in Hazards devlopment. Just like SAF and Ronaldo at Utd, I think Mourinho and Chelsea had a big hand in making him the player he now is. When he came, he was a very, very talented member of the starting 11, one of the famed trio of Oscar, Mata and Hazard..but it was in that 2014/2015 season that he became THE man of the new generation Chelsea team. Have to be grateful to Chelsea for giving us this chance. We have had legends who moved on to other things in life after leaving the club, and we have legends that are good enough to play for big clubs even after several years of service. Well done Chelsea

I know. It's like an emotional roller coaster for me. Just to cling to normalcy, or heart over head,I just want someone from the old guard to return to put us back on track. Lampard. Even Mourinho

Love you Eden

Anyway. I'm not sure of the point in serving the ban right now, even if there is a risk of it being increased. The whole point of getting back into the CL was to attract star players. What's the point in making transfers when you're dumped in the Europa league?

Jon Snow is a Chelsea fan

Also to be clear, I'm not fond of the other names thrown around. Dont want to go back to a turgid style of football
