Eden Hazard says Frank Lampard is one of the best managers in the world.
The Chelsea boss has his side third in the Premier League with eight wins from 12 Premier Leaguegames.
"I wasn't surprised about Frank Lampard," he told reporters. "I know Frank as a player, not a manager, but he is a great guy.
"He has shown already in four months that he can be one of the best managers in the world.
"The good thing is they are playing with young English players. They are lucky to have young players with quality.
"Maybe with two or three more they would be first in the Premier League.
"When I saw them play it was nice to see them all play together. I still have friends there are want them to do well."
