He may have only been in charge for a week but Frank Lampard is doing everything right in terms of getting the fans onside.
The Chelsea legend was a popular choice to replace Maurizio Sarri after he left for Juventus, with very few alternatives suggested as possible candidates for the job.
It took a few weeks to get the deal done, but my word it was worth the wait for the Blues.
The feeling around Stamford Bridge since Lampard's appointment as head coach has been palpable, with supporters lapping up the fact that they've finally found a boss with a genuine affinity for the club and the fans.
That connection can be crucial to securing long-term success, and it seems that Lampard is doing everything he can to build that relationship ahead of the new season.
Chelsea posted a video on social media which shows the former Derby boss meeting supporters after their training session in Dublin on Friday.
He was seen chatting to fans, signing autographs and posing for photos with a number of fans who had waited outside the training base to meet the club legend.
With the supporters in Ireland clearly delighted to meet their hero, the feeling on Twitter was very much the same as fans applauded Lampard's effort to meet those who will be backing to succeed next term.
Here's what the fans made of it on social media.
