Lampard shone at Derby in his debut season in management, so it's no wonder he's the man for the Chelsea manager job.

The football star has been trusted by Roman Abramovich to take over the reins from Maurizio Sarri, who left for Juventus earlier in the summer.

The appointment has been met with huge popularity among Chelsea fans as their greatest-ever player sealed his emotional return on Thursday.

Speaking at his first press conference after landing the coveted job, Frank revealed he doesn't have any plans to contact any of Chelsea's former managers, such as Jose Mourinho, Carlo Ancelotti and Guus Hiddink.

He said: 'I haven't spoken to any of them and as it stands I don't plan to call them.

'I don't need to tell you how much I feel about the club. The opportunity to manage this place, these fans and players is huge.

'I don't want to call it the dream job I don't have to give it a name or a title but everybody knows how I feel. I love this club and I want to give my best for the club.'
