Chelsea fans are expected to be supportive of Frank Lampard if the former Blues vice captain moves to Manchester City on loan this season.
The ex-England international joined New York City FC on a two-year deal, but has been heavily linked with a temporary stint at the Etihad Stadium this season before playing in the MLS.
However, the chair of the Chelsea Supporters Group, Trizia Fiorellino, believes that Lampard will not get a raw deal from the Stamford Bridge faithful.
Fiorellino is quoted by BBC Sport as saying: "You always get one or two idiots but the majority of fans will not go against him.
"It would be strange to see him in a Manchester City shirt but I could not begrudge him."
Her thoughts were echoed by former Chelsea winger Pat Nevin, who said that Lampard's status as a Chelsea legend would not be affected by his possible loan move to the Premier League champions.
