Recall that Lampard was sacked after a poor run of results that saw the club struggling in the Premier League table.
However, in a chat with Sky Sports, Cech insisted that he was behind the appointment of Lampard as manager.

“We had coaches that we had hoped to have for a long time. When Frank Lampard came back, we hoped that that was the moment when we would have had a manager for a long time…”
“When we were deciding who would be the manager after (Maurizio) Sarri’s departure, I was the one who pushed so hard for Frank to become manager. He had done well at Derby County. He was my favourite choice… I was hoping he would go to best possible way.
“We would have liked to have had Frank longer, but you have the board and the big boss (Roman Abramovich): when he wants to make a decision you have to expect it.”
