Chelsea have been told by former defender Glen Johnson that appointing a previous manager of the Blues is a good idea as Todd Boehly searches for a Graham Potter replacement. Following the turgid 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa, Potter was dismissed from the helm and Stamford Bridge and promptly replaced by Frank Lampard who will take charge of the club until the end of the season.
Julian Nagelsmann's availability following his shock sacking from Bayern Munich placed him as the firm favourite in the days after Potter's exit. However, a face-to-face meeting for ex-Spain manager Luis Enrique in London sparked significant talk that he could be the next Chelsea manager.
The Chelsea hierarchy decided to appoint Lampard on a temporary basis to allow ample time for them to pick the next manager. While the crucial Champions League tie with Real Madrid is dominating the thoughts of those associated with Chelsea, a new manager still needs to be appointed and Glen Johnson has given his latest thoughts on who Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbali should bring in.
