Former Chelsea boss Avram Grant reckons Frank Lampard is lucky over his finish in the Premier League this season.

The Blues ended the 2019/20 campaign, Lampard's first as their manager, in fourth place in the table, and they will contest the FA Cup final against Arsenal at Wembley on Saturday.

But Grant told Stats Perform News: "I think it's a good season, especially compared to how it began, without being allowed to buy players.

"Compared to the requirement of Roman Abramovich, if I told him some years ago that fourth place would be good for him, probably he would send me to Siberia, but because of the situation before, I think it's a good place. For Frank, I think it's a big achievement.

"It's his first year as a coach in the Premier League. Of course, he was a player with a lot of experience, but you cannot compare a player to a manager, and I think he's managed the team very well.

"A lot of young players and he knew how to play them, how to give them a rest and when to push them. It's a good base for the future, I was very pleased with his performance."
