LONG THREAD : Success doesn& #39;t come with signings alone, it takes a huge team-effort, patience, time and the trust of the board to win major trophies. Lampard will need time for the players to get going and it won& #39;t come easily.

#Chelsea
After Chelsea won the UCL in 2012, RDM was backed with Hazard, Oscar, Moses, Azpi & Ba to name a few, all were decent ones but unproven at the highest level. The result? We failed at the group stage & RDM was sacked. Call it ruthless or just the backing of the board was missing.
For instance Guardiola joined City in 2016 & the first time ever he went trophyless. Now I& #39;m not comparing Guardiola & RDM but shows City hired him with a long term project in mind & backed him next season with Walker, Mendy, Ederson, Bernardo Silva & he won the league that year.
Guardiola had vision & knew what he wanted. Apart from Mourinho& #39;s UTD no one could compete with that squad. Chelsea& #39;s off-field distractions were huge. Klopp was with Liverpool since 2 years but lacked backing & Arsenal were still heavily relying on Ozil & Sanchez. No competition
Klopp signed for Liverpool in Oct, 2015 & the club renewed his contract till 2022, post an impressive EL campaign where they lost to Sevilla 3-1 in the final. Imagine a manager getting a contract extension for reaching a EL final at City, UTD or Chelsea. But he had a proven past.
Although LFC had plans & a top manager in Klopp, he groomed TAA & Robertson + buying the right players with the Coutinho money is a credit to their perseverance & getting Van Dijk & Alisson was no joke. Add Salah Mane and Firmino to that? Result? A force in Europe! Domination https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đź’Ż" title="Hundert Punkte Symbol" aria-label="Emoji: Hundert Punkte Symbol">
Even a single World Class signing can do wonders for the team. Imagine Arsenal w/o Auba& #39;s goals or United last season w/o Bruno& #39;s impact, Ibra at Milan or Lukaku& #39;s introduction at Inter. If you don& #39;t agree, look at Barcelona after Neymar or Neuer& #39;s impact in this season.
Hope CFC backs Lamps if he gets the required results, as he did what the club demanded last year & as many expected he won& #39;t finish in the top 6. He& #39;s been backed by the board now. A realistic season as per fans would be finishing comfortably in top 3, QF/Semis in UCL & a trophy
End Note: Remember MC didn& #39;t have competition in 2017 & LFC have been impressive since then. So expecting a title run against these teams is a big task. Also highly impressed with Arteta & feel the club should back him now. Also if UTD secure Sancho & a LB? It& #39;s tough out there!
