Aren’t Chelsea under a transfer embargo? So his hand has been forced a bit, still it would be great if some other club’s took notice of Chelsea’s situation and tried it themselves by including a few of their home grown youngsters instead buying an overseas ‘off the shelf’ 26 or 27 year old. Lampard has got a bit of a free hit with the embargo but had it not been in place would he have blooded the youngsters or spent big? We’ll never know.........until the embargo is lifted.
