Frank Lampard has revealed that he doesn't have any ambition to stay on at Chelsea as manager or coach past this season after suffering yet another loss. The 44-year-old was beaten once again on Sunday, this time by newly crowned league champions, Manchester City.
It adds to a terrible recent personal record and overall run of form for the club that has left them without the possibility of a top-half finish. Even with nothing tangible to play for during most of his interim spell in charge, the performances and results under Lampard have left plenty to be desired.
The good news for fans once more tired of a long and deeply unsatisfying season is that there are only two games to go before a new era starts. Although Mauricio Pochettino is yet to be announced he is still expected to become the third permanent head coach under Todd Boehly-Clearlake Capital in the past 12-months.
