Frank
Lampard admits he shunned the chance to have a Chelsea leaving party
because he didn't want to end up with egg on his face.
The Blues legend left Stamford Bridge for New York City in the summer after a glittering 13 years in west London.
However,
with his future still up in the air towards the end of the campaign, he
decided against saying a big farewell to fans after their last home
game in case he performed a dramatic U-turn and remained at the club.
I didn't
want to do the big parade - 'Thanks a lot and goodbye everyone' -
because that would have looked a bit foolish if it had gone the other
way and I'd stayed,' Lampard told The Sun.
'I
ended up stuck in the middle. So I just did the usual lap and a wave
because we knew Ash [Cole] was leaving, we had a bit of a moment with
him.
'There
are not a lot of things I regret in my Chelsea career but not being
able to say my goodbyes properly to all of the Chelsea fans is certainly
one. Thirteen years is a long time.'
