The head coach highlighted what it means to play for Chelsea and laid out his ideology for the coming season, with Caballero and his team-mates excited to get to work.

The week in Dublin has been a success so far, with Lampard and his coaching staff making a positive impression on the squad. However this is no surprise to Caballero, who stated he always saw Lampard moving into coaching after spending a year with our all-time leading goalscorer at Manchester City.

‘I played with Frank for a season at Man City and even then you could see that he had those leadership skills in his character,’ Willy said.

‘During my time at City, I often spoke with Pablo Zabaleta and we would say that English teams needed big players who have won a lot of things in their careers to become coaches here. So I think it’s fantastic that Lampard is now our head coach, it’s fantastic for him and also for Chelsea.

‘It’s been superb with Frank so far. The way he spoke to us on the first day was amazing and he’s been great so far.
