"In terms of my contract, it seems to have flown by, the time I've been here," Lampard told a news conference. "I knew there were a lot of circumstances at the beginning that were going to make last year transitional and maybe slightly difficult. "Now I feel like I would love to be part of the long-term plan here. The signings we made in the summer, other than probably Thiago Silva, particularly, were signings for now and the future."The new signings have already made an impact, with Chelsea aiming to go top of the Premier League with a win over Leeds United later on Saturday, while they are also on a 15-game unbeaten run in all competitions.
"I always saw it as a longer plan than that and it might take until next year for us to really challenge, because of the signings, because of the bedding-in process."
