Ian Wright is worried that his friend Frank Lampard may be on a hiding to nothing at Chelsea after taking the manager’s job until the end of the season.
Lampard was brought in as caretaker manager on Thursday as a replacement for the sacked Graham Potter. His second spell in charge of the club did not get off to a dream start, with Chelsea beaten 1-0 by Wolves in the Premier League on Saturday.
The Blues are 11th in the Premier League, 17 points adrift of the top four, despite a huge expenditure on players since Todd Boehly’s consortium took over in May. Lampard is only seen as a stop-gap appointment, with the club considering the likes of Luis Enrique and Julian Nagelsmann as a permanent boss in the summer.
