Former Premier League stars Rio Ferdinand and Joe Cole have disagreed over whether Frank Lampard would be handed the permanent role as Chelsea head coach once again if he were to win the Champions League with the club. The former midfielder turned coach was given the task of becoming the interim manager for the remainder of the season.
