“A team that can do a job” – Some Chelsea fans react to Frank’s big gamble

Chelsea go into tonight’s game knowing that a win can guarantee them top spot in their Champions League group.

But they also know that they have a punishing schedule coming up, and that this is a unique chance to rest some legs, given they’re already through, at the very least in second place.

It’s also important to give a chance to so many of the players who aren’t playing week in, week out in the Premier League.

So Frank Lampard has decided to go all out on the rotation, leaving just Mateo Kovacic and Edouard Mendy from the weekend’s game.

It’s a risky move, but a gamble we totally understand given the circumstances. On social media the team got a mixed reaction, with most backing the manager to balance his various needs nicely.

As one Tweeter put it, it’s “a team that can do a job.”
