Ross Barkley has said that he is confident of becoming a 20-goal-a-season midfielder at Chelsea.
Barkley, 24, joined the London outfit from Everton in January, but struggled with injury in the second half of last season.
The Englishman has started both of Chelsea's Premier League matches this term, however, and believes that he can follow in Frank Lampard's footsteps by becoming a regular midfield scorer for the Blues.
"I believe I can hit the 20-goals-a-season mark. It's a lot, but it's achievable. You see Lamps do it and Stevie G (Steven Gerrard) and [Paul] Scholes," Barkley told The Telegraph.
"Frank is an example for me. He joined the club at a similar age to me and was at a similar stage of his career. He's someone to look at with the success he achieved for the club and for himself.
"He was an idol of mine from when I was a young lad, watching the Champions League and seeing the goals he scored. If I could achieve half of what he did here, then that would be a success."
Barkley scored 27 goals in 179 appearances for Everton before making the move to Chelsea.
