Frank Lampard

[Blue Armour 4,278]

The way club are treating Frank is atrocious.. I can almost guarantee that if Lampard played tonight it would have been a much different game. How many times did our wingers find space for themselves only to look in the centre of the box and nobody was there. As good as Luiz and Ramires are as defender's, they know fuck-all about field positionwhen it comes to attack. You can guarentee Lampard would have made this game different.

To be fair, Ramires does well at times, including today when he took that goal from Torres' pass.

But yes, I would have preferred Lampard coming on as a sub, instead of Benayoun.

Andre Villas-Boas blasts Frank Lampard for his lack of support during Chelsea reign

http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11675/8698510/Premier-League-Andre-Villas-Boas-blasts-Frank-Lampard-for-his-lack-of-support-during-Chelsea-reign

How the fuck do they get that tittle from those quotes:

"Yes, there was a lack of support from Frank Lampard but his ability and quality were never in doubt."

He added: "Whether the Chelsea players supported me does not matter right now. And probably being sacked made me a better manager."

British journalism never stops amazing me, and I don;t mean in that in a positive sense.

No idea why he didn't come on in the second half. We were losing the midfield, so you need someone to calm it down, ie. Mikel or Lampard. Instead Rafa keeps on the two most volatile midfielders in our squad (Luiz and Ramires) and brings on someone who is as useful as nipples on a breastplate.

So nervous about his record.. only 3 more games to go

[BlueLion. 21,491]

^ his record against Villa and Everton is absolutely magnificent:

All in all, Lampard has scored against 52* different clubs (as arranged by the number of times he has scored against them):

Aston Villa (12)
Bolton Wanderers
Blackburn Rovers (10)
Portsmouth
Everton (9)
Fulham

Tottenham Hotspur

*Now obsolete - the record is now 53.

Lampard to land new Chelsea deal

Just twelve months after being pivotal to the Champions League triumph in Munich, he is resigned to be little more than a bit part squad player. For a player, renowned as one of the fittest players at the club, that just doesn't add up. Frank, along with JT have been deliberately marginalised this season. Whether that be by TFSW or from above, one can only guess. I think both have shown maturity in not coming out and cunting TFSW off (Which I would certainly have done).

In Franks case, if he actually played more, he might not be so leggy and lacking in match fitness. Easy really.

As I said, different agenda though.

Shame Robbie never had those two available this season, especially during the little crisis we've had that got him eventually sacked. Think they were both gutted at the time.

The decision not to put him in yesterday is unexplicable.

[gary gordon 1,777]

Let's hope those rumours are true. I can't see Frank wearing any other club colours.

Player manager at Millwall?

Just a thought

I will bet my house on it that one day Frank will be one of the best managers in the world. The way he leaves Chelsea will have a massive bearing on which club he decides to manage in the future.. Let's hope in 10 years or so he get's to lift the Champions League trophy for us once again.

He will play against Villa - Confirmed by Benitez

Great, he'll score one at Saturday and then number 203 in Amsterdam.

[gary gordon 1,777]

Knowing Franks luck, he will get both away to Villa.

[DONI. 1,291]

Great, he'll score one at Saturday and then number 203 in Amsterdam.

Maybe that means he is not going to play on Amsterdam.

[Jusek 2,031]

Maybe that means he is not going play on Amsterdam.

Well, I don't think he will start but he might be substituted.

[bushman 2,043]

Frankie will have plenty of time to score more goals next year. I believe, he will be signed for one more year.

Frank Lampard admits he remains hopeful that he will still be at Chelsea next season. Lampard is out of contract this summer and has yet to be offered a new deal at Stamford Bridge

"I've always said that I wanted to spend all my career here and I think everyone knows that," Lampard told Sky Sports.
