Chelsea Boss, Lampard Sends Chelsea Fans ‘Clear’ Message

The Chelsea supporters have received a loud and obvious message from Frank Lampard that his team would approach the Champions League match with confidence and belief.

Chelsea lost 1-0 to Wolves in the Premier League over the weekend, giving Frank Lampard’s second tenure as manager a rocky start. In the first leg of their Champions League quarterfinal match, they will take on the mightiest team in Europe, Real Madrid.

The interim Chelsea manager remained confident ahead of facing the 14-time European champions and has sent a clear message to the fans that his team will go into the clash with belief in themselves.

Speaking to the Daily Mail, Lampard said, “We have an opportunity against a fantastic team and we have to attempt to make the most of the opportunity. Go there with confidence, with a belief, because otherwise, as I said, if you’re worried, don’t come. I don’t think history has a big effect on it, but I understand the romantic idea. Wouldn’t we all love to see it again? We have to work towards that.”

The Blues have failed to win their last four matches in the Premier League and are currently struggling in the 11th position on the league table. The series of poor performances had prompted the club to part ways with Graham Potter and re-appoint Lampard as their new interim coach until the end of the season.

On April 15, they host Brighton after playing Los Blancos in the Champions League on April 12.
