Frank Lampard holds his first training session as Everton manager following his arrival on a two-and-a-half year deal… as newly-appointed boss tells his squad to ‘enjoy the ball’ in a possession-based drill at Finch Farm
Life under Frank Lampard is fully underway at Everton as their new manager held his first training session with the squad on Monday afternoon.
Lampard was unveiled as their new boss on Monday at 1.30pm, signing a two-and-half year deal with the Toffees.
And by 3pm that day, he was in the thick of things as he oversaw their training session. His first match in charge will be on Saturday against Brentford in the FA Cup fourth round.

The 43-year-old was a picture of happiness as he put his newly-inherited squad through their paces at their Finch Farm base.
During one small-sided possession drill, Lampard could be heard shouting encouragement as he told players to ‘enjoy the ball’.
Joining Lampard on the sidelines of training were his backroom team of assistant manager Joe Edwards as well as first-team coaches Paul Clement and Chris Jones – with the latter also head of performance.
Duncan Ferguson and Alan Kelly have remained as part of the backroom staff from the Rafael Benitez era – with the Spaniard sacked a fortnight ago after a run of one win in 13 matches.
