Lampard was confirmed as the club's interim manager on Thursday in the wake of Graham Potter's dismissal following a string of poor results which left the team 11th in the Premier League. "He knows the club like nobody else and it's important to give continuity to things. Like anyone, Lampard is going to need time. Chelsea have invested a lot of money but now need to adapt to an idea."
