Actually, we will not 'that disappointed' if he at the very beginning has decided to sign with City in the first place. What it made some of us disappointed, is that he make a 'fake signing' with NYFC first, along with the expected loan move, expected extended loan move, plus all the words he has said. We are disappointed with the route he takes.

We only see what the clubs want us to see. There's nothing to say Lampard knew what he was getting in to with Citeh. Yes it's very unlikely he didn't know, but we can't assume he did.

With the comments we don't know what's going on behind the scenes, we don't know whats been said and what obviously changed Lampard's mind.

I think people are being very ignorant in assuming they know exactly what has happened here and are being far too quick to judge him.

He could refuse didn't he? if he didn't want to play for City. What the club could do to force one player to play for the club he didn't want to play? Nothing.

Actually I am on the side who could understand his loan move to City at first, to maintain his fitness level before MLS and stuff. But this extended loan move and 'fake signing' which is over the line for me.

Of course he wants to play at the highest level. He signed for NYCFC in June their first game isn't until March. People are expecting him not to play during all that time? Staying at Citeh means he'll miss 3-4 of NYCFC games hardly massive...

Staying at City is like a slap in the face of every Chelsea fan that sang his name.

It might looks like an 'okay' move from ours perspective, but for some, like NYFC players and fans, along with MLS fans in general, it is really not that 'okay'.

See this is what I mean about ignorance. Scammed? How so? Their season starts in March.

They are currently playing at the Yankee stadium so are very limited to how many home games they can fit in as the baseball games take priority.

So we should expect him not to play? To wait till March and not want to compete at the highest level. He has given everything to Chelsea and we no longer wanted him, we disrespected him, he wanted to continue playing and knew he could play at the highest level which he has proved. If he goes on and wins Citeh the league it isn't his fault at all, it's the clubs fault for not wanting him. People are just looking from the perspective of Chelsea and not Lampard.

We offered him a 1 year deal as far as I know, he wanted 2. Highest level? Why sign for an MLS team when he could go anywhere in the world? Blindly defend him all you want, he did one on us and its disgusting.
