Former Chelsea midfielder Bolo Zenden isn't surprised with the success Frank Lampard is enjoying with the club's youngsters.
Zenden says Lampard has never lost his human touch.
He told the Mirror: “Frank is such a warm person. He always has time for the people around him.
“As a player, when you saw him getting stuck in it was hard to imagine that off the pitch he was always a kind and wonderful person.
“By the end of his career, his trophy room was well filled. Three league titles, four FA Cups, the Champions League and the Europa League.
“Frank was always crazy about winning – both individually and as part of the team.
“He used to be really sick after a defeat. When things went wrong for his team Frank changed into a different person. He was not afraid to stick the boot in.
“But as soon as the match was finished he was enough of a gentleman to shake hands.
“Frank is someone who can always put things in perspective and knows what matters most in life.
“Football is important to him, but he knows when to put the emphasis on other things. That is a very important quality for a manager."
