Willian is happy having a former teammate in charge at Chelsea.
Chelsea handed Frank Lampard the reins to his former club after Maurizio Sarri decided to join Juventus in the summer, and Willian is happy working with him.
The Brazilian played alongside Lampard at Stamford Bridge between 2013 and 2014, and has revealed that he tipped his former colleague to make the leap into coaching.
Willian said: “It's a bit weird he is my boss now, but I am very happy to work with him again.
“He has given me the confidence to play. He wants me to be happy.
“He was an intelligent player, one of the best in his position. A quality player.
“When you see players like him you can say maybe in the future, he can become a manager.
“A part of the performances I have had in the past couple of games I have to dedicate to him."
