Just seen his live press conference on SSN. Have to say he was very impressive throughout. Charismatic and no little humility he looks as much at ease in front of the media as his uncle Harry. His family is obviously steeped in football and he is definitely a student of the game. 18 months out of the game where he completed all his coaching badges he appears well up for it. He said he had watched a lot of Championship football through last season and knows what the league was all about. Although not announced his backroom staff are all sorted which will obviously be important to a novice manager. Hard job ahead especially with Derby's FFP implications but if this press conference was anything to go by I believe Lampard will ultimately be a success.
