Lampard learning to live with Chelsea manager upheaval

Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard says he's learned to live with the constant managerial changes at Stamford Bridge.

"I've enjoyed the different challenges," said Lampard. "Each manager I've had has pushed me on to a different level. Claudio Ranieri brought me to the club, Jose Mourinho pushed me on mentally and Avram Grant helped me at a difficult time. I didn't know which way my career was going when Luiz Felipe Scolari took over, and then there was Guus Hiddink.

"Now there is Ancelotti. You have to impress the new man and learn from him and if we all do that, the team has a better chance of succeeding. It's the modern way. It's not like when my dad [Frank Lampard Snr] played, when he only had one or two managers. Things have changed."
