Chelsea have seemingly made a decision on Frank Lampard following a fifth straight defeat since taking over as interim manager.
Lampard was brought in last month to take over from the sacked Graham Potter, who only lasted eight months in the job.
Things have got worse under Lampard's second tenure at Stamford Bridge, with the club registering five straight losses while scoring one goal in that period.

There may have been some doubt over Lampard's future this season, especially after London rivals Tottenham Hotspur decided to sack their interim manager Cristian Stellini after the 6-1 loss to Newcastle United.
However, renowned transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano reported that the Blues have no plans to sack Lampard, who is expected to remain in charge until the end of the season.

Various reports have suggested that former Spurs and Paris Saint-Germain manager Mauricio Pochettino is set to become the new Chelsea manager from next season.
The likes of Luis Enrique and Julian Nagelsmann were also linked with the Blues in the last month, but it seems the club will go for a coach with knowledge of the Premier League.
