“STOP THE BLAME, I AM NOT THE PROBLEM”, Chelsea FLOP Nicholas Jackson Caution Chelsea Fans As He Expose Those Behind The Team’s Recent Failures
Frank Lampard said that Mauricio Pochettino’s uneven first season at Chelsea has not shocked him.
Following Graham Potter’s dismissal at the conclusion of the previous season, Lampard temporarily took over in the Stamford Bridge dugout until Pochettino took over in the summer.
Chelsea, who now sit ninth in the Premier League standings and are having difficulty qualifying for Europe via the league, have had a dismal season by their normal standards.
Nevertheless, regardless of their league standing, Pochettino’s Chelsea would qualify for Europe if they won the FA Cup. Speaking to the BBC before to their FA Cup semifinal matchup with Manchester City, Lampard expressed his lack of astonishment at Chelsea’s difficulties this season.
“I believe incremental steps is good,” Lampard said. This season has been all about baby steps. Given the composition of the team, I’m not shocked.
“A stretch of eight games without a loss or defeat boosts confidence.” You may still witness the inconsistent behavior when they are unable to manage the game in such games.
Perhaps a dependence on Cole Palmer, who has performed really well for them. A little momentum goes a long way. They will be happy with their recent 6-0 victory, but it presents a significant task for them today.
On Monday night, the Blues scored six goals against Everton without answering, but they also made headlines when Nicolas Jackson, Noni Madueke, and Palmer got into a fight over penalties. Palmer finally took the fall and scored his fourth goal of the match.
Chelsea have been playing well lately, having won five games and drawn three since losing the Carabao Cup final at the end of February.
Between 2001 and 2014, Lampard’s midfield exploits at Chelsea established him as a club icon.
He took over as manager at Stamford Bridge from 2019 to 2021 after serving as interim manager at the conclusion of the previous campaign. The Blues have had a rotating board of managers in recent years.
“I anticipated the problems that were coming for any incoming manager,” Lampard said to the BBC. There was supposed to be a significant squad turnaround. It was inevitable.
