Andre Villas-Boas gives Frank Lampard the silent treatment

AVB gives Lampard the silent treatment

Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas is reportedly not on speaking terms with midfielder Frank Lampard.

The Portuguese manager gave Lampard the silent treatment after their game against Wolves and on the coach home, according to The Sun.

Lampard scored a last-minute goal to give Chelsea a 2-1 win yesterday.

"None of the players could believe it, it's shocking treatment," the paper quotes a source as saying.

"Lampard has given everything for this club and his treatment by the manager is disgusting.

"Despite easing the pressure on Villas-Boas, the manager said nothing to him in the dressing room or on the way home."

The Blues are currently fourth in the Premier League, eight points adrift of leaders Manchester City.
