FRANK LAMPARD will this week drum into his stars just what it should mean to play for Chelsea.
The new boss wants players left in no doubt they are fighting for the right to wear the shirt.
N’Golo Kante flew into Dublin yesterday with Kepa Arrizabalaga, Ross Barkley and Olivier Giroud to join up with the squad’s pre-season training camp.
Kante, 28, will discover too how he can fit into Lamps’ plans — after Maurizio Sarri played him out of position last season.
Blues face Bohemians Wednesday night and boss Lampard has been boosted by Ruben Loftus-Cheek’s new five-year deal.
He hopes wing sensation Callum Hudson-Odoi will sign up next with talks progressing well.
Lampard is only in his first week in the job having signed a three-year deal at Stamford Bridge.
