Frank Lampard could be discharged off his duties as Chelsea manager today.

The Chelsea manager has failed to perform with his expensive side following his appointment in less than two years.

Reports that Frank Lampard will be sacked by @ChelseaFC today. Utterly ludicrous after his first bad run. It was always going to need time given so many new signings feeling their way into a new club. Patience being a virtue is seldom recognised in this sport. They never learn.

Chelsea are 11 points behind Manchester United and after an impressive run last season without any major signings, many tipped Chelsea as top four contenders especially with the acquisition of Ben Chilwell, Kai Havertz, Timo Werner, Hakim Ziyech and a few others to bolster his side.
