Aston Villa No2 Terry: No-one better for Chelsea than Lampard

Aston Villa assistant manager John Terry is delighted seeing former teammate Frank Lampard succeeding as Chelsea manager.

Lampard guided Chelsea into the Champions League spots before the season was postponed due to the coronavirus outbreak.

He told Frank Khalid: "It's been incredible because we said there was no one better, to give Lamps [Frank Lampard] the job.

"With [assistant manager] Jody Morris as well, he has someone who knows the younger players and works with them at the youth team and U-18 level as well.

"I think it's been a good mix. I think the expectation has been excellent because the group that they've had this year have done really, really well."
