Ex-Chelsea defender Graeme Le Saux believes Frank Lampard’s intelligence and great experience can help him become a top manager. Le Saux played together with Lampard during his time at Chelsea.

“You’re always learning, that’s the key about being a top level coach. I’ve known Frank since he was a young player at Chelsea, coming for a huge price tag from West Ham,” Le Saux told Daily Mirror.

“He’s very bright, always wants to learn, down to earth but he also has the credibility from the game. What he’s achieved and the experience he has are all fantastic qualities he can bring to management.

“It’s down to him if he wants to do it and use those experiences he has had and put a stamp on what he wants to do. It’s fascinating.”
