What does Lampard need to achieve to keep his handsome position?

According to ESPN commentator Craig Burley, if Chelsea coach Lampard fails to lead his team into the top four of this season's league, he will be fired immediately. The fierce competition in the Premier League and the current situation of Chelsea put Lampard's position in jeopardy.

In his first season at Stamford Bridge, Lampard led his team to the Champions League qualifiers and the FA Cup finals, so the 42-year-old marshal was highly anticipated by Blues fans. In this year's epidemic, all the giants in European football have no big signings. Chelsea alone spent more than 200 million pounds, bringing several new AIDS to the team. The boss Abramovich's action is undoubtedly showing the world that he wants Chelsea to return to the top, and the person he entrusts with the heavy responsibility is undoubtedly Lampard.

Unfortunately, Chelsea, which had a high-profile performance at the beginning of the season, was hit repeatedly after the season deepened. In particular, they lost to Arsenal in the latest round 1-3, and lost the London Derby, falling to eighth place in the league. Boss Abramovich's patience with Lampard has gradually worn off. Coupled with the poor state of his players, it is difficult for Lampard to make Chelsea feel better again through his wisdom and decision-making.

It is not so easy to realize the Premier League now. Even klopp, which has enjoyed great scenery in the last two seasons, made a breakthrough only after enduring the hardships of the Red Army for nearly four years. Any lineup and system takes time, and talented coaches also need time to polish their own teams. Abramovich, who has been in the Premier League for many years, will not understand this truth.

Perhaps the Russian tycoon was spoiled by Mourinho from the beginning. After Mourinho signed for Chelsea, he immediately took this team, which had been suppressed for many years, to the top, and made Abramovich feel that he could do great things and win top honors as long as he spent money. But times are different now. After practicing Jinyuan football in Bali and Manchester City for so many years, there is still a gap with the Champions League throne. Last season, Barry was lucky enough to reach the Champions League final, but he didn't have the slightest confidence in front of Bayern, a traditional strong team.

Chelsea survived from obscurity for so many years and became the only team in London with a big ear cup. Now it is really necessary to be more patient in seeking to reach the top again.
