Chelsea Facing Tough Season After a 4-0 opening day mauling, Frank Lampard faces an uphill struggle to match the glory he enjoyed in his playing days...
A question that pops up from time to time on forums and quizzes is whether you would prefer to be forgotten or hatefully remembered when you die. It’s a profound question in the most extreme; no one wants to look back on a wasted life, yet to cause a negative impact goes against human nature. Roman Abramovich will certainly not be forgotten. Yet for all the good he has done at Chelsea - the millions ploughed in that have seen them become one of the game’s biggest forces, lifting 5 Premier League titles and the 2012 Champions League since arriving in 2003 - he will be heavily criticised for the manner of his hire-fire policy with managers.
