Lampard: JT and I will make sure Chelsea players behind Hiddink

Frank Lampard says he and Chelsea captain John Terry will make sure new gaffer Guus Hiddink has the full support of the players.

Lampard told The Sun: "JT is the captain and I am vice-captain. I hope the fans sense that we hurt like they do and we take responsibility for trying to put things right.

"When we are not top of the league or a few points off it we will try and get everyone going and put that right because that's our nature.

"Hiddink is obviously a top manager and he's had great success with club sides and international sides.

"He is very technical and seems to like a typically Dutch method of playing football - so it will be interesting to work with him.

"I have huge respect for Phil Scolari and Jose Mourinho and I have been very lucky that I have had huge respect for every manager I have worked with.

"It will be the same with Hiddink but the players need to respect the manager and perform for him."
