New York City FC head coach Jason Kreis is not expecting too much of a tough adjustment period for Frank Lampard.

The 36-year old English midfielder will join the MLS expansion franchise in July once his contract with Manchester City expires and Kreis feels his squad will help Lampard adapt quickly to life in MLS.

"By the time we get him we will have a group that has been together for several months," Kreis said of the Chelsea icon.

"They should be able to support him and his changes that he's having to make outside of the game and also should be able to support him by knowing what we're trying to do tactically."
