2008 was an unforgettable year for Frank Lampard. On 25 April 2008, Frank Lampard's mother died of pneumonia in London, which undoubtedly dealt a huge blow to the Blue 8. In the subsequent Champions League final, Frank Lampard equalised for Chelsea and then comforted his dead mother with both fingers, but in the end in the penalty shootout, the Blues lost the battle, which was a real disaster. In the summer of 2008, Brazilian Scolari took charge of Chelsea and signed midfielder Deco from Barca, who was thought to replace Frank Lampard as the new heart of the Blues' midfield.
Both Deco and Scolari wanted Frank Lampard to renew his contract, and on 13 August 2008, the lamp officially extended his contract with Chelsea for another five years. In the 08-09 season, Chelsea performed mediocrely under Scolari, announcing their dismissal in February 2009 before being taken over by Abou's old friend Hiddink. But Frank Lampard's performance that season was unparalleled, he blossomed on all fronts, contributing 20 goals and 21 assists throughout the season. Although Chelsea finished third in the league, they won the FA Cup, and this time it was Frank Lampard who scored from distance in the second half to help Chelsea defeat Everton.
That season, Frank Lampard won the best of the Chelsea team, and it can be said that he was also the first midfielder in the Premier League at the time, and in 2009 Adidas released the adipure 2 generation, Frank Lampard and Kaka were among the top spokesmen. The embroidered Luna and ISLA on Frank Lampard's adipure2 sneakers are the names of Frank Lampard's two daughters. In the summer of 2009, Hiddink left and Carlo Ancelotti became Chelsea manager, but Frank Lampard was already the ace in Ann's hands.
Chelsea finally avenged the pre-season Community Shield as United took the lead and scored twice in the second half, including a controversial second goal from Lampard who scored after Evra and Ballack collided and scored. However, Wayne Rooney scored before the end of the game to help Manchester United draw with Chelsea. In the penalty shootout, Cech showed great courage and saved the penalty of Ryan Giggs and Patrice Evra, and Chelsea avenged it. But Manchester United fans were so upset that after the game, they burned a bus outside Wembley Stadium.
The format of the Premier League in '09-10 was as anxious as the Red-Blue vs. Community Shield, but it was Chelsea who had the last laugh. With Carlo Ancelotti's arrival, Frank Lampard took on the responsibility of attacking more in the squad. Chelsea's attacking firepower is also staggering. They scored 103 goals this season, with Lampard scoring 22 as he completed his senior year at Aston Villa. For a midfielder, it's a bit incredible. The next round Chelsea beat Manchester United 2-1 in a crucial game to claim a crucial three points. In the final round of the Premier League against Wigan Athletic, Chelsea only need to win the title, the meritorious Frank Lampard also grabbed the penalty of Drogba, who is competing with Wayne Rooney for the Golden Boot, fortunately he scored the penalty, after which Drogba also completed a hat-trick, Chelsea won 8-0, and won the Premier League for the third time. They then beat relegated side Portsmouth in the FA Cup to win the League Cup double for Chelsea for the first time.
In the 2010 World Cup qualifiers, Frank Lampard scored twice against Croatia, and England advanced early after a 5-1 victory, and he, along with Gerrard and Wayne Rooney, became the hope of England's revival. But in this World Cup, Frank Lampard's biggest contribution was to promote the development of goalline technology in football. England met arch-rivals Germany after qualifying from the group, and Germany were strong in that game, scoring two goals first, but England pulled one back by Upson first. Frank Lampard then fired another slinger, but the goalkeeper, who had crossed half a metre from the goalline, bounced into Neuer's arms again and was finally ruled null by the referee. It has to be reminiscent of the classic shot in Adidas' Jose10 ad four years ago, where Frank Lampard's shot hit the crossbar and was confiscated by Kahn. England's morale was also frustrated and they lost 4-1. It was because of this serious miscalculation that UEFA used goal-line technology in the early 10-11 Champions League season, and all thanks to Frank Lampard's genius.
In the 10-11 season, the originally beautiful Carlo Ancelotti once again suffered the same embarrassment as Mourinho, that is, Frank Lampard's injury, Chelsea scored 21 goals in the first five rounds at the beginning of the season, but then Frank Lampard recuperated for three months due to hernia surgery until his comeback in December, at this time Chelsea can be said to be in a slump, assistant manager Wilkins was fired. But with Frank Lampard's return, Chelsea had a solid second half of the season, beating Manchester United in early March. Frank Lampard scored 10 goals in 24 league games for Chelsea and helped the Blues to a second place in the league. At the end of the season, Carlo Ancelotti, who was all four, was out of class.
Carlo Ancelotti was replaced by Portuguese Boas, but it is clear that the quality of the young manager Boas is still inferior to that of the famous manager, who is only a year older than Frank Lampard, is a true workaholic. Not to mention the level of coaching, the ability to deal with interpersonal relationships is really average, whether it is with the boss, the coaching staff, and the players, the relationship is very poor, and the team's results are not satisfactory. It is said that in the end, even Frank Lampard publicly stated that his relationship with Boas was tense, and Abou could only fire Boas, at this time the club had no hope of winning the league and faced a desperate situation in the Champions League, losing 3-1 to Napoli in the first leg of the quarterfinal, and assistant coach Di Matteo became a firefighter.
Originally, everyone thought Di Matteo was an over-coach, but did not expect a change of coach like a change of knife, Chelsea in the second leg, relying on Terry and Drogba headers to take the lead, after Napoli scored a goal, Frank Lampard penalty helped Chelsea draw with Napoli, in extra time, Chelsea with Ivan's goal opponent to advance to the final. The rest of the story is even more unbelievable, in the second leg of the semi-finals, Chelsea forced Barcelona to a 2-2 draw with away captain Terry to advance to the final. In that game, Ramirez's goal was assisted by Frank Lampard.
In the 2012 Champions League final, Bayern played at home against Chelsea, who ranked sixth in the Premier League, and Chelsea captain Terry and Ramirez, Ivan and other main players were suspended, and their strength was seriously damaged, it can be said that the world feels that Bayern will win the championship without suspense. Frank Lampard played quietly as captain, with both captains using the new European Championship colour, the Adipure 11Pro sneakers. The game went as expected, with Bayern dominating the game, shooting 43-9 and corners 20-1, and Bayern breaking the deadlock in the 83rd minute of the second half. Everyone felt that Chelsea were powerless, but five minutes later Drogba relied on the only corner kick and scored with a bankrupt header to send the game into extra time. In extra time, Petr Cech saved Robben's penalty. The game ended up in a penalty shootout, with Frank Lampard making his third appearance as captain to secure the penalty. The brave Cech saved consecutive penalties from Olich and Piglet, and finally Drogba hit the nail on the head, and Frank Lampard won the Big Ears Cup for Chelsea for the first time.
