# Chelsea: Jose Mourinho praises Frank Lampard in Spurs documentary

**Jose Mourinho’s opinions on Frank Lampard have come to light after comments were pulled from the new Amazon Prime documentary *All or Nothing: Tottenham Hotspur*.**

The former midfielder is a player that the Portuguese manager knows very well. Lampard was a [vital part of Mourinho’s midfield](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/frank-lampard/leistungsdatentrainer/spieler/3163/plus/0/verein/631/trainer_id/781) at Stamford Bridge and together, they lifted [two Premier League trophies and an FA Cup](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/frank-lampard/erfolge/spieler/3163).

Now a head coach himself, the 42-year-old has had a satisfactory [first season in charge](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/frank-lampard/stationen/trainer/60805) at the club where he played for [13 years](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/frank-lampard/transfers/spieler/3163).

The Blues clawed their way to a top four finish after a rocky start to their 2019/20 Premier League season and Lampard has since brought in [five senior players](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/fc-chelsea/transfers/verein/631) to help bolster his chances of major silverware in 2020/21.

In the *All or Nothing: Tottenham Hotspur* documentary, Mourinho described Lampard as ‘professional’ during his playing days, before branding him ‘the best I’ve ever seen’ (via [Metro](https://metro.co.uk/2020/08/31/jose-mourinho-hails-chelsea-boss-frank-lampard-best-professional-spurs-nothing-amazon-series-13200813/)).

Indeed, the player-turned-coach set some huge records during his time in a Chelsea kit, including his [still-unmatched goalscoring record](https://thechels.info/wiki/List_of_all-time_goalscorers) of 211 goals in blue.

After reaching his one-year milestone at the hilt of the west London club, Lampard has led Chelsea to a Champions League spot and has had a very successful transfer window. He has enticed the likes of Ben Chilwell, Timo Werner and Thiago Silva through the door, with more signings [potentially still to be announced](https://www.football.london/chelsea-fc/transfer-news/chelsea-transfer-news-live-havertz-18851329).

The Blues will certainly be a team to keep an eye on this season as Lampard aims to dethrone Liverpool as Premier League champions.
