On Wednesday night, the Leeds United vs. Frank Lampard rivalry was back on the field. Lampard, who is now the manager of Coventry City, had a memorable evening.
Joel Piroe and Jayden Bogle’s goals in the first half helped Leeds United defeat Coventry City 2-0 in another comfortable performance, giving them a five-point advantage at the top of the Championship table.
In the Championship, Daniel Farke’s team is getting better and better. With nine goals in their last two games, the Whites are looking powerful and merciless in attack, even though they did not make any first-team acquisitions during the January transfer window.
Leeds United supporters were heard chanting at Lampard on Wednesday night. Lampard’s former Derby County team had a history with Leeds due to the 2019 spygate scandal.
In the away end at the CBS Arena, Lampard cupped his ears as the Whites supporters yelled, “Stop crying, Frank Lampard.” Since taking over for Mark Robins in November, he has won half of his 14 games as manager.
Following their victory over Coventry City, Leeds United’s outstanding Frank Lampard joke
The official X account for Leeds United is joining in on the jokes. Leeds, still elated after Wednesday night’s victory, wrote on Thursday morning: “No, but really, last night was amazing!”
For those who don’t know the joke, Lampard makes football fans laugh by joking and laughing and then switching to a more serious tone, frequently using the phrase “no, but seriously.”
Leeds’ winning streak now stands at 14 games in all competitions after their victory over Coventry. Leeds United’s most recent defeat came on November 30, two days after Lampard was appointed manager of Coventry, at the hands of Blackburn Rovers.
Frank Lampard’s remarks against Leeds United following Coventry’s loss
After Wednesday night’s game, Lampard was full of admiration for Leeds United, putting aside the history and the jokes.
“They’re a really good team and they’re top of the league for a reason,” he stated following the game. We were aware of their numerous threats. They are a strong team, and we undoubtedly could have done better in a few areas.
Leeds presently leads Sheffield United in third place and Burnley in second place by five points. In their first seven Championship games of 2025, the Whites have won four and drawn three.
The Whites’ next FA Cup matchup is at home against Millwall on Saturday.
