Tuesday marks 12 months since the takeover by Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital and they feel lessons have been learned

The coaching staff have been shocked at the apathy in training. Frank Lampard, whose time as interim head coach ended on Sunday, has derided the dip in standards. Some people believe that Mauricio Pochettino, whose appointment is an undeniable positive, will be in for a shock when he gets to work.
