Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers backs ex-players of Frank Lampard's level being given a management chance.

The Foxes go to Lampard's Chelsea today.

Rodgers, a Chelsea coach under Jose Mourinho from 2004 to 2008, said: Players who've been at the top of the game should have a chance to be fast-tracked into management.

You still have to do the work and have the commitment.

Frank is clearly driven to succeed. With those who've been great players, it's about ambition, but also about doing the work.

If you do my journey, you must earn it over a longer period."
