Unlikely Result That Could See Chelsea Relegated As Lampard Awaits First Win

• Chelsea are winless in five games under caretaker manager and club legend Frank Lampard
• He returned ahead of the game against Wolves while the search for a new manager continues
• The Blues could be relegated if they mirror Lampard's first five games in remaining matches

Chelsea are going through their worst season in decades in the first year of Todd Boehly's ownership, and it could still get worse than it is right now.

The departure of the beloved Thomas Tuchel has seen the club plunge into chaos on the pitch and the appointment of the less-famous Graham Potter did not uplift the team; it instead made things worse.

When Potter was sacked, fans expected an immediate hiring of a top-tier manager; instead, the club went for Chelsea legend and former manager, Frank Lampard as caretaker until the end of the season.

Lampard is yet to oversee a single point for the Blues, having lost his first five games in charge.

According to BBC Sports, it is the first time in 30 years the club has had such a scandalous record in the Premier League.

How Chelsea could be relegated

The Blues are one point away from the mythical 40-point benchmark to avoid relegation, but unlikely scenarios could still see the club drop down to the second tier of English football.

The 2021 UEFA Champions League winners have six games left to the end of the season: away trips to Arsenal, Bournemouth, Manchester City, and Manchester United, as well as home games against Nottingham Forest and Newcastle United on the final day.

According to Telegraph UK, a less-motivated Chelsea could drown in the waters of relegation if they lose all their remaining six games - a scenario which seems unlikely but is possible considering Lampard is yet to pick up a point.

On paper, the games against Arsenal, City, United, and Newcastle looks likely to end in losses for the Blues. At the same time, Bournemouth and Forest - who are fighting relegation - could also nick a win against the Londoners.

Fans leave Stamford Bridge early

Sports Brief previously reported on Chelsea fans leaving Stamford Bridge early on Wednesday night during their 2-0 loss to fellow London club, Brentford.

The Bees took the lead via a deflected corner off Blues captain, Cesar Azpilicueta near the end of the first half and doubled their lead in the 78th minute.

This prompted Chelsea faithful to walk out of their home ground before the full-time whistle, a rare occurrence in the 19 years under Roman Abramovich.
