Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho's Stamford Bridge return proves we are thinking long term, says Frank Lampard Lampard, who signed a one-year extension to his contract last season, after expecting to leave Chelsea, added: "But, at the same time, at a club like Chelsea, you always want that instant and regular success. We want to do well this year but we are also looking for the long term. In the Portuguese's three seasons in charge Lampard started 170 games and scored 60 goals. Now he has a club-record 203 Chelsea goals but can expect to be used far more tactically. He will not play every game. "He [Mourinho] won't tell anyone that they are going to play every game," Lampard said. We have spoken. He's aware that I am fit, he knows me as a player. He will pick and choose the team, week in, week out. We have got a big squad? Do I accept that? I have accepted it the last few years anyway so it's no different. Lampard, who earned his 98th England cap against Scotland in midweek, also accepts his elder-statesman status and the need to mentor. "You certainly have to take on the responsibility when you get to your thirties and onwards to help the young players," he said. We have got a lot of them in both squads, Chelsea and England. I really enjoy doing that. I love seeing players flourish. I've seen it with England over the last few years.There's more to come, further to go for these young players. And at Chelsea the same. Lampard's pre-season has been hampered by injury but he featured in the second half against Scotland and hopes to be involved in Sunday's opening Premier League fixture at home to Hull City. "It's good to have the manager back," Lampard admitted. He's demanding on the training ground, which is the best way to be. He's easy to talk to, off the pitch, let's you know what he wants. He can be light-hearted at times, can be hard when he needs to be - any player, whether you're young or old, enjoys playing under that. There's a real freshness about the place at the minute, he's the same man. Obviously, he's a bit more experienced. He knows the club inside out, he knows some of the players already. He has been very good to work with some of the young players that we have got. I have seen the reaction of players in training already - we now need to show that on the pitch.
