His performance at Chelsea has steadily deteriorated recently and rumors have already emerged about the replacement of coach Frank Lampard.
The Blues are only eighth in the standings, despite a spectacular summer selection worth £ 253 million, and the 1-3 loss to Manchester City on Sunday was another disappointing performance against a rival from the upper half of the table.
The English media have even named a favorite for Lampard’s job, and that is Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers.
It makes a strong second consecutive season with the “foxes”, who move third in the classification and show a modern and quality style of play.
Rodgers is best known as a former Liverpool manager who was on the brink of a title with the team 7 years ago, but previously the Northern Irishman also worked at Chelsea as a junior manager.
He was at Stamford Bridge in 2004, when Chelsea was led by José Mourinho.
The island’s media also named several other Lampard deputy candidates: Thomas Tuchel, Julian Nagelsman and Massimiliano Allegri.
