Lampard to give new recruits more time to integrate

Chelsea manager Frank Lampard was coy on how quickly he expects his new signings to integrate.

The Blues have added the likes of Hakim Ziyech, Timo Werner, Thiago Silva, and Ben Chilwell, with Kai Havertz also expecting to join.

But Lampard does not want to put too much pressure on his new recruits, as he admits so many signings will take time to gel together.

“We have an idea to try to add to improve, as you should do at a club of our level, and we know that has not been absolutely possible for us,” Lampard told the club’s website.

“And we knew the ban and all this talk, and it was important for me to try to improve the squad and with the players that we are bringing in, it feels that way.

“But we need to be careful of getting too far ahead of ourselves because we need to give time to players to come in and adapt, to the way I want us to play and to their team-mates, but I think the moves we are making our positive, so I am excited and then it is up to us to get our heads down and work very hard.”
