Probably get a cool £20 million for not doing anything

I don't like chopping and changing managers but this isn't a big surprise. There is no runaway team this year and Chelsea are still not really in the chasing pack. He's spent a fortune but doesn't seem able to work out how to get the best out of his big signings. In a strange way the end of their transfer ban did him no real favours, he was doing OK bringing players like Mount through.

They spent a lot of money on players like Werner. He was awesome originally, but watching him this year he looks pretty shocking. Reminds me a bit of someone like Falcao. Insane player and comes to England looking like a shadow of his former self.

His transfer dealings are like when you go to do the week's shopping without a list. You buy loads of things that individually are good but don't work together.
Also, it's not as if the appointment was on merit

I wonder how many he chose of the new players the owner seems to like to play football manager

Entirely predictable - If not by today's game then defo by Chelsea. Surprised he didn't go earlier to be honest.
One again, no eyelids batted here.

He really didn't start at the bottom and work his way up. Starting at the top is always a bad idea.

Madness - Taxi for the manager who has won then a league title for the first time in Decades, just because they are not quite living up to the expectation of a few, and are riddled with injuries to key players!

I read that he was pestering to spend £80 million on Declan Rice and the board didn’t want to as they had let him go for nothing aged 15.

Was poor cutting his teeth at Derby and jumped too quick into the big league. Should have done what Gerrad's done and took an easier route to cutting teeth in Scotland at a club that will dominate with Cetic no matter who manages tbf. Sorry for Frank but he will be back and he's all the richer for it in experience and financially tbf. Great player would like to see him succeed. Abramovitz is ruthless.

Exactly my thoughts.
No one in his position would turn the Chelsea job down but you don't buy a load of players and expect instant success. Different model compared to Man Utd and Liverpool

Indeed. Should have put a couple of them on the night boat to Cairo.

Frank Lampard's parting words to Andre Villas-Boas come back to haunt him
Lampard has been sacked by Chelsea following the Blues' poor recent form and won't want to be reminded of what he said about his former boss
