Chelsea fans have taken to Twitter to air their delight over Frank Lampard being nominated for the Premier League’s Manager of the Month award.
On Thursday it was announced via the club’s official website that the Englishman would be in contention for the award for the second month in a row (via Chelsea).
The 41-year-old former midfielder had been nominated for the award in September, however, lost out to Liverpool’s Jurgen Klopp (via Liverpool).

What do we think?
With the Blues’ 100% Premier League record for October (via BBC), Lampard will be in with a good shout of securing the accolade.
The month also saw the Blues jump from sixth to fourth, finishing October in a Champions League qualification spot, which should favour Lampard kindly.
