Todd Boehly attempted to rouse Chelsea’s players before Tuesday’s Champions League tie against Real Madrid by delivering a speech in the dressing room after theon Saturday, during which the American described the club’s season as “embarrassing”.
It is understood one senior player, signed for a large fee in the past 12 months, was singled out for heavy criticism. That player, whose identity is not being disclosed, is believed to be disillusioned with the situation and cut a disgruntled figure in training before Chelsea attempt to overturn a 2-0 deficit from the first leg against Madrid.
Lampard insisted he had no problem with board members going into the dressing room. “There may have been some criticism of our old owner for not coming to games, not being around, and that wasn’t alway true to be fair,” ,” the interim head coach said. “But when an owner is invested in their interest in the team and wants to help and improve, it’s their prerogative to have the input they want. I remember the moments as a player of owners first coming into the dressing room.
