Frank Lampard begins Chelsea revolution but who are his trusted lieutenants and how will they help him take Blues back to the top
FRANK LAMPARD will head to Chelsea armed with his most trustee lieutenants.
The Blues legend has bagged a dream return to Stamford Bridge on a three-year deal following his season at Derby.
Lampard, Chelsea's record scorer, will be under no illusions at the task in hand particularly in the midst of a two-window transfer ban.
So he will need all the help he can get from his group of experienced backroom staff.
Joining him from Derby will be his best mate Jody Morris who will act as his assistant manager.
Morris, Chelsea's youngest ever player, helped bring through youth prospects at Stamford Bridge before making the switch to the Rams following Lampard's appointment.
Chris Jones, who was first-team coach at Derby, will also head south as part of the compensation agreement.
Jones also worked at Chelsea with the first-team under Carlo Ancelotti in 2009 and remained at the club following a flurry of new managers.
There will also be a promotion for Eddie Newton who is already working with Chelsea.
The former midfielder currently has the role of developing the careers of their on-loan players but will now be part of the coaching staff.
