Lampard and Chelsea: different coach, same big problem
Coach Frank Lampard, coach of Chelsea, suffered his first loss after returning to the “Blues” on Saturday, after Wolverhampton snatched a 1-0 victory in the 30th week of the English Premier League.
Absence of soul
Coach Lampard’s imprint did not appear with his players at Chelsea, after the former “Blues” legend, known for his strength of character when he was a player, failed to restore the lost spirit of Moroccan Hakim Ziyech’s comrades in the match against Wolverhampton.
Although Wolverhampton scored the only goal in the 31st minute of the first half, the Chelsea players did not react. On the contrary, they dealt with the opportunities that appeared in front of the opposing team’s goalkeeper with care and haste.
The big problem
Frank Lampard knows that he is an emergency coach at Chelsea FC, in order to extinguish the fires in the team, after the dismissal of Thomas Tuchel at the beginning of the current season, after which the administration fired Graham Potter from his position as technical director of the “Blues” several days ago.
But the biggest problem in Chelsea remained the same, which is the instability of one technical staff since the beginning of the season, and the reliance on 3 different playing methods, which means the accumulation of players in the team, and the inability of many of them to meet the desire of the coach for the remainder of the current season.
Save the team
Chelsea suffered 11 defeats this season in the English Premier League, and ranks 11th in the standings table, after collecting 39 points, but Frank Lampard’s task will be very difficult, before the end of the current season, as a result of 8 matches remaining in front of the team.
And Lampard will face a difficult test, which is to restore the missing team spirit, and restore the confidence of his senior stars in the locker rooms, their self-confidence, otherwise the consequences will be severe, with the results declining in the remainder of the English Premier League confrontations.
