Frank Lampard admitted watching Chelsea win the Champions League was bittersweet following his sacking - but he now has another shot at claiming European glory as caretaker boss.
Lampard has been drafted back into the Chelsea hot seat to steady the ship until the end of the season with confidence levels low at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues drifted into mid-table irrelevance under Graham Potter, but Lampard has a chance to completely rewrite his story as a Chelsea manager in Europe. The club legend was sacked midway through the season before Thomas Tuchel took a resurgent side to the Champions League trophy in 2021.
