Frank Lampard has called on Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly to take inspiration from Arsenal and the faith they showed in Mikel Arteta in a bid to bring stability to Stamford Bridge.
The Blues, languishing in 12th in the Premier League, have had four different managers this campaign, with Thomas Tuchel replaced by Graham Potter in September. Yet the former Brighton manager’s recent dismissal saw Bruno Saltor oversee first-team affairs for one game before Frank Lampard was appointed as interim boss.
Lampard became the club’s first manager to lose each of his opening four matches in the hotseat before his miserable time in the dugout continued this week as Brentford inflicted a fifth successive defeat for the Blues with a two-goal victory at Stamford Bridge last week.
