Chelsea supporters have expressed their delight at the possibility of Frank Lampard facing Manchester United in his first league game should he take over at Stamford Bridge.
The club legend is set to become boss should Maurizio Sarri leave the club and join Juventus, but has already beaten Manchester United at Old Trafford with Derby, in the Carabao Cup third round in September.
With the Premier League fixtures announced on Thursday, it has been revealed that Lampard's potential first match would be a trip to Old Trafford.
Fans are excited at the prospect, with one saying: 'Imagine Lampard doing the bounce in the Theatre of Dreams'.
Another was extremely confident of success, saying 'Lampard's First Victory as a Chelsea Manager will be at Old Trafford!!'
A third pointed out Lampard's previous success as Rams boss, claiming: 'Our next manager has already won at Old Trafford! Bring it on!'

Frank Lampard becoming the next Chelsea manager will be great. His one of best players the club has ever had, he loves Chelsea and the fans loves him too. But the problem is the Chelsea fans and the board, will they be patient enough to work with him and support him? sarri has made up his mind to terminate his contract with the club simply because he got no support from the fans and board. The players were the ones backing him up. sarri is not a bad coach as far as am concern. football now has changed, look at what pep has done to man city, now man city can comfortably win any game without stress. Why? because pep came with a brand new style of football and the club supported him and was patient with him. the club had a good plan and future. in this life, you can't be successful on your own, you must work with people that has the same vision with yours to become successful. What Chelsea needs now and maybe others clubs too is a long term plan not wasting the time sacking and hiring coaches every season. Sarri style of football is great if only he can get the support he needs then the sky will be Chelsea's limit... My opinion
