‘I like’: Frank Lampard explains what has really impressed him about Chelsea owner Todd Boehly
Frank Lampard has claimed that he has been very impressed by the passion shown by Chelsea owner Todd Boehly since he has taken over.
He told the Evening Standard that he had no issues with the American entering the dressing room after the club’s loss to Brighton at the weekend.
Lampard is looking to get his players up for the Champions League quarter-final second leg tonight against Real Madrid.
Their hopes are hanging on by a thread after the 2-0 first leg defeat at the Bernabeu.
Any desires to build some momentum before the must-win game went up in smoke when they were dominated by Brighton at Stamford Bridge.
The defeat saw frustrations boil over in the crowd, with fans pictured in heated discussions with the Chelsea owner.
Lampard impressed by Boehly
Lampard has now claimed that he has no problem with how the American has reacted, instead claiming he is a fan of his passion.
He said: “There is no problem with it from my point of view. I had my things to say after the game. If the owner comes in and wants to be positive and speak to the players, then I think it is his part to do that.
“It can be regular in the modern day. It shows passion and that’s the first thing that I like. These are passionate owners who want to bring a real vision to the club and we are probably in the early stage of the process in those terms.
“Again, I keep being asked a lot of the same sort of stuff but when you look at processes in the Premier League and we want to rise and stay at the very top and at the moment we are just off that level.
“People always question everything at the beginning and the early stages and at any part of the process.”
Boehly will almost surely be in attendance as the Blues look to save their season with an extraordinary victory tonight.
