The squad and the staff closely related to the squad have a very clear idea that this season the expectations will be minimum, considering the transfer ban and the new manager, and this might be a very big psychological factor.

This can enable the players to play a free-form attacking brand of football where there is no pressure on them, resulting in each individual playing as their best version of themselves on field.

Also, the first-team selections of Lampard in these first 4 weeks have made it clear that he doesn't shy away from rebuffing his squad every week to give chances to upcoming talents and try new strategies.

If Chelsea are able to achieve a top four spot this season, and can reach the knockout stages of the Champions League, with this kind of a situation, it will be a big win for Lampard and his young guns. Next season when probably the transfer ban will be lifted, there can be some strengthening of the squad to improve the depth.
