Leeds, July 6: Newly joined Chelsea coach Frank Lampard said on Friday that he wants the best out of his players and that they will be given complete liberty to showcase their skills in the team. "I want to get the best out of the squad. Everybody has an opportunity. I would be a fool to come here with ideas about I'm going to freeze anybody out," Goal.com quoted Lampard as saying.

"Everybody who joins up to train, and it will be staggered, will have the opportunity to show what they can do, their attitude, the way they play and train in pre-season onwards," he added. The 41-year-old has replaced Maurizio Sarri as the coach of Chelsea. Sarri had earlier left the team to join Juventus as head coach. Frank Lampard Will Succeed As Chelsea Manager, Says John Terry.
