Frank
Lampard has arrived for his first day at work after he was officially named
Chelsea head coach on Thursday after weeks of speculation.
Club legend Lampard signed a three-year contract at Stamford Bridge and will
now attempt to replicate his glorious career as a Blues player by securing
some silverware off it.
After his high-profile introduction to the media at the news conference to
confirm his new role, Lampard - Chelsea's record goalscorer who won 11 major
trophies during his timer as a player in west London - now begins the hard
graft on the training ground.
Lampard will now prepare his side for a busy pre-season campaign, which
starts on Friday when they travel to Ireland, to prepare for their opening
fixture against Manchester United at Old Trafford on the opening weekend of
the season - live on Sky Sports on August 11.
Meanwhile, Derby have named Frank Lampard's successor, with former
Netherlands international Phillip Cocu confirmed as Rams manager on a
four-year deal on Friday.
