Row Lampard says he will “never say goodbye” to Chelsea fans and urges new manager Mauricio Pochettino to take on the task of reviving the club.

The effects were disastrous, but his brief tenure is still appreciated by many followers. Lampard’s call was sung despite another desperate 4-1 defeat at Manchester United on Thursday night.
Lampard needs to hand over a baton to his new successor Pochettino, but insists it is not a farewell.
“I don’t need it to sound too vulgar, but I’ll never feel like I’m saying goodbye to the fans,” he told reporters. “I live near the stadium and will return to Chelsea several times. “
Lampard already has a positive relationship with Pochettino and will help the Argentine start by informing sporting directors Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart about the illnesses he has encountered.
The former Tottenham and Paris Saint-Germain coach may be announced next week before tackling a host of issues including, as Lampard describes, a basic drop in educational standards.
“It starts with the way you paint and how you train,” Lampard added after his side were impressed at Old Trafford thanks to goals from Casemiro, Anthony Martial, Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford. “If I’m honest, collective education is blatantly brief. “
Lampard has had injured players lately and has complained about his team’s overall fitness. Pochettino will have to physically exercise his players as he corrects Chelsea’s inability to score enough goals.
Goodbye: Lampard’s interim move is a disaster
Joao Felix’s comfort goal in the 89th minute was just Chelsea’s 37th goal in 37 league matches, with only 3 other Premier League groups scoring less this season.
Lampard has publicly needed Pochettino and urged him to savor the duration of the challenge he now faces. “I think it’s a task because that’s Chelsea’s task. A lot of the more sensible managers didn’t need it [because of the movement ban], I know.
“I enjoyed the procedure and I enjoyed coming and I wish the new coach good luck. I don’t know [if it’s going to be difficult], that’s their problem. “
Pochettino’s first task will be for a giant component of the Chelsea team. It rose to 32 players after Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital drove spending to a world record £600 million in two moving windows.
Although many players are talented, the squad has also been for Lampard, as for his predecessor Graham Potter.

He just has to do his part to make the fans feel more positive and help lay the groundwork for Pochettino’s tenure, and concludes: “I’m not too nostalgic, but I actually appreciate the fans. On Sunday, more than anything, I would like to give you a takeaway functionality to make the summer feel a little more positive.
