Richard Keys has been left dumbfounded by Chelsea's managerial process as the club continue to search for the next permanent head coach at Stamford Bridge. After the 2-1 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion it is now three defeats from three games for interim boss Frank Lampard but pundit Keys is far from set on the current alternatives.
Lampard took his current role on a temporary basis until the end of the season, allowing the Blues' new footballing directors to conduct a thorough and exhaustive process of narrowing down the options. Julian Nagelsmann and Luis Enrique lead the way in that regard but Mauricio Pochettino, Carlo Ancelotti and Ruben Amorim have also been linked with the role.
With so little to play for in the final six weeks of the season the attention is once more turning to who will be in the dugout for next season at SW6. Lampard still has the task of trying to overcome Real Madrid and a daunting two-goal deficit on Tuesday in the Champions League but outside of that its full steam ahead for operation new manager.
