Frank Lampard insists he will never follow Jose Mourinho in managing both Chelsea and Tottenham as he ruled out any possibility of taking charge at the north London club.
Mourinho made a vow in 2015 that he would never take over at Tottenham due to his affection with Chelsea - only to go back on his word as he took the Spurs job on Wednesday.
Lampard, who revealed the pair shared a few messages following Mourinho's appointment as Mauricio Pochettino's successor, is ready to be quoted on his own vow in 10 years time.
'I can firmly say no, and you can replay that in 10 years,' he said. 'It wouldn't happen.'
When asked whether Mourinho's decision is a mark of disrespect to a supporter base who saw him lift three Premier League titles at Stamford Bridge, Lampard played down the idea of animosity.
'Mourinho has worked at a lot of clubs and you have to respect his right to work,' he added.

That's tell us how man can never be trusted. If lampard says (no) to coach Tottenham in future, let wait till he retired.

I'm waiting for what Lampard will say at post match conference after been disabled by Manchester city like 6-2 tomorrow because he has not win any top 6 match.. And he is not focusing on his match day 13 instead talking rubbish about Mourinho.. My friend you will still accept that job because after what top 6 will do to you this season.. No club in England will ever need your services again.. Even national league will never offer you job my friend.. Focus on your job forget Mourinho and Tottenham hotspur...[Crylaugh][Crylaugh][Crylaugh]

Lampard ain't gonna manage any of the other London clubs coz he gonna stay at Chelsea for a long time hopefully. He ain't a Mourinho either.
