Frank Lampard has only just got his dream job of managing Chelsea but the former midfielder is facing backlash already, with #LampardOut trending on Twitter following a second failure in pre season.

On Friday Brazilian striker Leandro Damiao, known to Spurs fans for his constant links to the club, scored to hand Chelsea a humiliating 1-0 pre season loss to Japanese side Kawasaki Frontale.

It was the second time in three friendlies that new boss Frank Lampard has seen his fail to win, with a 1-1 draw against Irish side Bohemians and a 4-0 win over St Patrick's Athletic preceding the loss.

The loss in Japan triggered football fans on social media to make 'LampardOut' trend, although it wasn't all Blues' fans:

Lampard certainly has some more difficult pre season games coming up before the season with La Liga champions Barcelona next up.

The Blues will be looking to take momentum into the new season as the former Derby County boss becomes the latest Chelsea manager to face Manchester United in his opening competitive fixture.

Jose Mourinho, Avram Grant and Carlo Ancelotti all started their careers at Stamford Bridge against the Red Devils.

Knowing how long managers usually last in west London it'll be interesting to see if being a club legend and having a transfer ban allows the club's all time top scorer more time before he's under pressure.

How long will Lampard last at Chelsea?
