– –<\/span><\/p>\nSpeaking for the first time since his return was confirmed, Lampard said it was \u2018an easy decision\u2019 to come back and believes his knowledge of the club will help stabilise the team until the end of the season.<\/p>\n
\u2018[It was an] Easy decision for me, this is my club. I\u2019m also a very practicial person.<\/p>\n
\u2018I\u2019ve been on a different path since I left Chelsea but to come back when I\u2019ve been asked and come back with a belief I can help until the end of the season.<\/p>\n
\u2018Delighted to get the opportunity and I\u2019m thankful. I\u2019ve a good understanding of the squad, the training ground, the stadium and the fans and I\u2019ll do my best.\u2019<\/p>\n
Lampard \u2013 who said he couldn\u2019t yet confirm who would be in his backroom staff \u2013 said his main objectives were to help balance the squad and give everyone \u2018a clean slate\u2019.<\/p>\n
\u2018[My targets are] to install the highest confidence and we want to win as many games as we can. There are big games ahead of us but we have to have a belief in the players and I\u2019ll tell them that today.\u2019<\/p>\n
– –<\/span>
\n<\/p>\n\u2018I was at the game on Tuesday night I know there\u2019s a lot of talent in this squad. I\u2019m excited to work with them and help them.<\/p>\n
\u2018Everyone can have a clean slate and show in training what they can do with a competitive nature. We can all push each other and I can manage that.<\/p>\n
\u2018Against Liverpool, we created a lot of great chances, I\u2019ll be working with them on the training ground [to help with goalscoring] it was part of my game and I know the players will have that.<\/p>\n
He also said he was looking forward to working with Mason Mount again \u2013 having overseen his rise to the first team but refused to comment on his struggles at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n
