Frank Lampard fell to his fourth Premier League loss in-a-row as Chelsea manager on Tuesday night, and the Blues can still get relegated.

On Tuesday night, Chelsea manager Frank Lampard suffered his fourth straight Premier League defeat, and the Blues still have a chance to be demoted.

Lampard's primary responsibility was in the Champions League when he was hired as Graham Potter's replacement on an interim basis, through the conclusion of the season, at the beginning of last month.

At that point, it appeared as though Chelsea's season was already over and that they would not gain a spot in the European competition for the upcoming season.

But under the club's all-time leading scorer, things have only gotten worse; after a recent defeat to Brentford, supporters have even demanded his resignation.

He appeared to take a dig at his own club, ahead of Tuesday's game, further annoying fans, as his legacy as a legend started to dim. Tuesday's game was never likely to be easy for the Stamford Bridge side, but they basically surrendered to London rivals Arsenal in the first half. They showed some signs of life at 3-0 down, in the second half, with Noni Madueke scoring a consolation, but ultimately, Lampard lost again.

It's not highly likely to happen, with six clubs still having to overtake the Blues, but it could all start with Bournemouth beating Lampard's men on Saturday to go three points clear of them.

Wolverhampton Wanderers would need three points more than Chelsea, and West Ham United six, meaning the west Londoners would likely have to lose all five of their games remaining.

With six losses under his belt already, including the two in the Champions League to Real Madrid, it would be quite incredible for the former Derby County manager to make it 11.

The 44-year-old would have to follow up a defeat to Bournemouth, with a loss to Forest, with Manchester City, Manchester United and Newcastle United their next games.

Those three thee final games could still be enough to see the team go into the Championship, but it would take a hell of an effort from other clubs, who haven't exactly been known for winning this season.

WIN OUR $5 BTC TOKENS It is not up for debate anymore whether or not Christian Pulisic should leave Chelsea FC. The debate to be had now is where he should go. Pulisic went an unused substitute in the Blues win this past weekend, after having been left out of the team entirely the week before. As we wrote last week, if Pulisic never plays for Chelsea again that would be just fine. So where can he go? The American is being strongly linked to Italy’s Serie A. As you can see from the Tweet above, a former Chelsea forward who made the switch to AC Milan believes that his current side is the perfect place for Capt. America to go. “I think everyone would like it. He’s a big name in Europe, so that would help us,” said Giroud, who played with Pulisic at Chelsea. He is that kind of player with great skills, with great talent. He is a cheerful boy, always smiling. We laughed a lot with him. Our understanding on the pitch was also excellent, a bit like with Eden Hazard, ...

Finding methods to help Chelsea's goal-scoring problems is their top focus going into the summer transfer season. The next head coach will have a significant task to tackle once they are appointed because there are issues with both opportunity generation and finishing. Mauricio Pochettino is the undisputed favorite at this point in the game.London is aware that the former Tottenham manager is getting closer to accepting the position but has not yet done so. The lengthy wait is due to the hierarchy's use of a careful process to choose their next hire. Interim manager Frank Lampard has taken charge of the squad until the end of the season, allowing for a clean slate for the manager-in-waiting. With just one win in his tenure so far, the former midfielder was quite frank in his assessment of the assessment, saying last month: "Is there an issue with the balance of the squad? Maybe, yeah." As the club starts to plan for the future, it implies that some squad players who a...
