The invitation has been on the table for five years – it's all about knowing when it's accepted.
A month after Frank Lampard played his last game with Chelsea, Jose Mourinho revealed the details of a conversation with the owner, Roman Abramovich.
Mourinho, then boss of the Blues, said in 2014: "Mr. Abramovich has left the door completely open for him, knowing that Frank can come back whenever he wants."
There was not a man, woman or child in football who did not expect that to end one day with Frank sitting in the manager's office.
"A NEW DYNASTY OF SHOES"
And as Steven Gerrard, who will eventually become the boss of Liverpool, it's a football wedding that everyone thought was only when – not so.
The greatest certainty since Noah reached out and said, "It looks like it's going to rain."
Now, with Maurizio Sarri leaving Stamford Bridge, has there been a more successful failure? – The time has come for Lampard.
Best scorer in history, triple player of the year, captain winner of the Champions League and Europa League, three titles, four FA Cup, two League Cups. . . and now manager.
There are only people who believe that Abramovich should not consider naming a man with only one year of experience.
Just as there are some who think that Frank should not consider returning to work for someone about to host a 14th manager since he bought the place 16 years ago .
Lampard, they say, should not consider it, given the owner's insistence on immediate success.
Given the total lack of patience and the refusal to let a project develop.
Roberto Di Matteo, his previous appointment with a former player, is he not sufficiently warned?
He was sacked just six months after winning the Champions League as interim leader.
Only it was a different moment and a different man. Lampard will come back as a legend. A man who commands even the total respect of the owner. And certainly that of all players.
A man who knows the club will take – to Jody Morris – an badistant who knows all the Blues youth and the youth system.
And with Chelsea facing a ban on signing two windows, the latter is all the more important.
With so many young players registered – that it's a loan or a failure – there would be no better duo to take this development to a level superior.
But back to Roman, a man so happy that Billy the Kid would raise an eyebrow. Maybe the time has come for that to change.
Naming Lampard, with Morris at his side, is a real chance for Abramovich to bequeath a legacy that will last forever.
An opportunity to lay the foundation for a new dynasty of booties. A chance to change all the club's DNA.
Yes, Lampard has only one year of managerial experience at Derby.
And true – as his critics happily point out – he did not get out of the league.
But he could not have gone closer.
And with the common badent, he made them play a fantastic football, with at the center some fantastic young talents.
Once Eden Hazard left, some young people from Stamford Bridge will get opportunities that would otherwise not have been possible.
Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Callum Hudson-Odoi, and Reece James can be fulfilled for the first few months, but they will come back – and flourish under a man like Lampard.
But they are not the only ones.
Those who come back from spells elsewhere, like Tammy Abraham and Mason Mount and those just below, like Ethan Ampadu or, below him, Conor Gallagher and Marc Guehi.
Lampard himself once admitted that despite all the money spent on the marquee arrivals, Abramovich had told him that he would like to see more young people pbad by.
Well it's an opportunity to show it. And he has the management team that is best positioned to make the most of it.
This could mean a development season, to accept it for a year.
And it may be necessary that Roman shows that he is ready to wait until these shoots are in full bloom.
But again, who knows, they can surprise us all.
One thing is sure, though – it is doubtful whether you find anyone foolish enough to suggest to him to win anything with children.
Do not hit us
A FEW bishops congratulated the Americans for not being released against Thailand and for celebrating their last goal as fiercely as the first of their 13-0 World Cup round.
They believe that the competition has no credibility and that they should have shown pity.
What an absolute b ****** s – it would have been condescending and unprofessional.
It was an opportunity for the United States to put the fear of God in all other nations.
If that does not suit you, maybe try the theater.
Rivals go from end to end
WHEN Pakistan will face India at the Cricket World Cup at Old Trafford today, it will be against the backdrop of armed guards and the highest level of security.
The drummers will be accompanied on the field before heading towards the center, such is the resentment between these two nations.
It is certain that the rivalry between Manchester and Liverpool is in the shade a little …
