Chelsea boss Frank Lampard says it was good to hear from co-owner Todd Boehly this week.
Boehly spoke at the Milken Institute in California about the problems he's encountered at Chelsea.
Lampard said today: "It's a good thing. To speak so positively, it's what I've found since I've been here. Good intentions. That's good. From my point of view, I don't know. I'm here with the squad at the minute to try and get a turnaround then it's up to the owners.
"To be clear, when I say the players care they do. The reality is the reaction that comes from that. It can be many reasons why, it can be an underperformance. It's not a training issue as such. It's working with the players and team or individually to make sure everyone is on point."
Lampard added. "I'm not hurting. I've been part of this club with big success. Any sport can give you moments of adversity. We at Chelsea have been pretty fortunate for 20 years. When the spotlight is on you, it's on you. As a player or a coach, you have to understand that."
