With reports about Frank Lampard returning to the club, he may want to bring with the Derby County backroom staff that helped him enjoy such a successful campaign last season.
Jody Morris, Lampard’s assistant manager at Derby County last season looks likely to follow the 41-year-old to Stamford Bridge.
However, it seems that goalkeeping coach Shay Given will stop short of doing such a thing, after reportedly turning down the opportunity to coach at Stamford Bridge, according to Simon Phillips.
