Frank Lampard was always going to upset someone this summer. I mean, he’d got both Chelsea and Jose Mourinho wrapped around his finger, whilst he continued to deliberate over his very expensive future in football. Would he stay at the club he ‘loved’ with ‘his people’, or defect to Italy where his old boss sat confidently informing the press he could take his pick of his former players?
Well, we all know what decision Lampard made, but now we’re getting to hear about some of his little indiscretions along the way. No, no, he wasn’t caught on camera with another hottie on a night out, this time his indiscretion involves the unrequited love of someone a little more ‘special’ than that.
Because with Jose Mourinho apparently on a roll in the press again, in between hurling abuse at Claudio Ranieri and upsetting the Italian media, TSO has spoken out about how the Chelsea midfielder left him in the lurch.
In a manner not too dissimilar to a woman scorned, Mourinho suggests:“Frank is in my heart for everything we have done together but I’m left with a bitter taste in the mouth. He said to me ‘I will go with you to Inter, if it’s not possible now, then in a year we will be together’ Afterwards he changed his mind.”
I’m not going to analyse his choice of phrase too much because I’m told there’s adult websites for that sort of thing but I’ve no doubt the form Lampard seems to have rediscovered this season will only make Jose’s pain even harder to bear.
My heart bleeds!
