Gary Neville claims Frank Lampard should take a 'pragmatic' view of his sacking with the former defender highlighting Chelsea's ruthlessness when it comes to dismissing managers, while reflecting back on the time Andre Villas-Boas was hounded out.
Lampard's dismissal as Blues manager amid a dismal run of form left supporters furious, with many believing the club legend wasn't given enough time to turn things around.
The relatively-inexperienced boss was swiftly replaced by Thomas Tuchel at Stamford Bridge, and Neville claims Lampard should be the 'least surprised' over his dismissal. Neville highlighted Villas-Boas' sacking in 2012 and how Lampard was part of a squad that influenced the decision to let the Portugese boss go after just nine months in charge.
