Chelsea fans love what John Terry said about Frank Lampard on Instagram ahead of Liverpool clash

Chelsea face the Premier League champions Liverpool at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, and they've been wished well by a familiar name.

After getting off to a winning start on Monday night against Brighton and Hove Albion, the Blues' title credentials will be tested when Jurgen Klopp's side come to town.

In previous games against the Reds under Frank Lampard, there have been no shortage of goals and plenty of talking points.

After what happened between Lampard and Jurgen Klopp on the touchline at Anfield a few months ago, there could be extra motivation from Chelsea fans to get one over on the Merseyside giants.

And it would appear that former captain John Terry is in the same boat.

Ahead of the game, the official Chelsea Instagram account uploaded an image of Lampard during a training session with a message with one of his quotes.

"I know we're going up against a great team, I’m going up against a fantastic coach, so I want to do well."

To which Terry responded to with a blue love heart emoji.

As expected, this got some Chelsea fans rather emotional on Reddit.

One said: "Imagine the scenes if JT comes to work under Lampard as a coach. Would love to see it."

However, a return to Stamford Bridge to work under Lampard is a scenario that another supporter simply can't picture because of Terry's ambition.

"Never going to happen, sorry. Terry is also an aspiring manager I don’t see the benefit in him working under another inexperienced manager.

"Personally I wouldn’t like it to happen, much better if they’re both managing top clubs, competing against each other because that’s why I personally see them as, competitors."
