Lampard facing big dilemma following goalless draw against Manchester United
According to Chelsea legend Alan Hudson, Chelsea manager Frank Lampard is in a dilemma after the goalless draw against Manchester United on Saturday.
It was Chelsea’s second goalless draw in a week, after the goalless draw against Sevilla in the Champions League on Tuesday.
According to Hudson, Lampard’s desperation to make Chelsea solid defensively has destroyed Chelsea’s attack.
“Frank was desperate to stop conceding so set his stall out to do so, therefore not having a shot on goal at the other end for so long, and in 90 minutes less than any other match this season,” Hudson told CaughtOffside.
“He has now got himself into quite a predicament and is ‘stuck in the middle’. After two 0-0s he’s put himself in a very tricky situation as to how to go about future matches. The creativity was clear – there was none, and the whole team were tuned into keeping a clean sheet as a defeat would have been harmful.
