Has changing so much so quickly ever really worked out? Particularly with young players new to the league?
It's not even like they had a solid core to add stuff around, feels like elements of every part of the team has new faces from back to front. It's also just the law of averages that at least one of the expensive new lads would be a flop, at least initially.
Jury's out on Lampard but he won't be the first manager to fail to integrate a load of new players.
