Frank Lampard has had an up and down career as a manager according to many pundits, yet his resume is impressive. The former England international has coached Derby County, Chelsea, Everton, and later a second stint with Chelsea.
In total, Lampard has a 41% winning percentage and a combined record of 81-71-44 across his four managerial positions. Lampard’s last time out as coach of Chelsea produced a dismal 1-8-2 record as he served as caretaker while Chelsea looked to rebound from a terrible 2022/23 season.
For USMNT fans, Lampard is known as the manager who gave Christian Pulisic his first substantial minutes in the Premier League but in his second stint, seldom used the now AC Milan winger.
