Everton assistant Ashley Cole has explained his role in Frank Lampard's backroom staff.

The former England left-back has linked up with his old Chelsea teammate at Goodison Park.

Asked about his role by the club's website, Cole said: "Just warming up the defenders, we're talking about the principles of how we want to set up and the objective of what we want to do as centre-halves or full backs.

"Whatever that is, it's my role is to get them ready for what they're just about to hit for 90 minutes.

"I usually take it nice and light with them, just getting some key details into him.

"I speak with Joe Edwards giving him a bit of tactical insight at times, because it's sometimes difficult to be on the same level as the pitch to really understand people's shapes and formations.

"I sit up there and give tactical analysis on formation and key players."
