Lampard can reinvent himself at Chelsea
After seeming to have his name written in indelible ink on the Chelsea teamsheet for the past decade, Frank Lampard now finds his place in the side in doubt.
, and with - a penalty at that - to show for his efforts so far this season, the midfielder no longer appears such a key player at Stamford Bridge.
His future at international level is similarly insecure, after he was - the first time in four years that he had not started a competitive match for his country when available.
So, at 33, is he merely a squad player at Chelsea, with now the leading light in midfield?
