Chelsea boss Frank Lampard has welcomed the fans singing the Jorginho's name.

Lampard has admitted he's delighted with the midfieder's early season form after his problems last term.

Asked specifically about the fans chanting Jorginho's name, Lampard said: I was delighted to hear that myself.

I do think that with fans, they are generally pretty honest. What they're seeing is a player - I don't want to talk about last year - but what they are seeing now is a player who has a drive, has a determination as a team player. I'm certainly seeing that.

"He also has quality. He can change a game, lead a game, own a game from midfield areas. I'm delighted with that. I see day-to-day what playing for this club means.

He's just a fantastic sportsman who cares deeply. When you have a training session that might fall below standard or drop for a moment, he's the one who drives it up again.

"When the fans see that on the pitch, as they did at Norwich, that's why they sing his name. I'm delighted with that."
