Ex-Chelsea striker Chris Sutton believes Frank Lampard has "one hell of a job" this season.

Lampard's first competitive game in charge of the Blues ended with a 4-0 defeat to Manchester United on Sunday.

And without Eden Hazard, who departed for Real Madrid this summer, Sutton thinks Lampard has hit work cut out for him.

"Frank Lampard has one hell of a job on after the club lost their best player," Sutton told BBC Radio 5 Live's Monday Night Club.

"Hazard carried them for years but he's gone and they can't bring players in.

"It all comes down to what the owner's expectation is and what Lampard has been told at the start of the season. The fans being behind Lampard will only last for so long."
