FOOTBALL - Florent Malouda believes Frank Lampard's Coventry City success gives credibility to managerial career

FLORENT Malouda believes Frank Lampard’s success at Coventry City gives credibility to his former teammate’s managerial career.

Malouda and Lampard played together for five seasons at Chelsea, winning the Champions League, Premier League, three FA Cup’s and a Community Shield.

And Malouda hopes Lampard will stay with the Sky Blues rather than moving to another team in the Premier League.

Speaking to Snabbare, Malouda said: “This season Frank Lampard has proven that he’s a good manager.

“It shows that his ideas work when he is in the right environment. I was happy to see him at the last game at the Bridge.

“I think he’s also getting more experience on how to transfer his ideas to convince his players how to get results.




“I hope that one day he will return to one of the biggest clubs in the Premier League.

“Like Cesc Fabregas, he’s on his own journey as a manager.


“You have ups and downs but what he’s achieving now is giving credibility to his managerial career going forward.

“Frank Lampard should stay at Coventry because he has won everyone over, and I think he would get more support there going forward.

“Also, when you’re building a project and you’re part of the project as a leader, it’s important to send a signal that you can be dedicated for the mid to long term to that project.”
