Lampard not Blue over poor displays

Frank Lampard insists he is not worried by Chelsea’s poor displays in their last two games as they prepare for Sunday’s clash with Liverpool.

The Blues lost in the Premier League to Wigan last weekend and secured an unconvincing 1-0 victory over Apoel Nicosia in the Champions League on Wednesday night to leave some question marks over the make-up of Carlo Ancelotti’s side.

Lampard, however, insists there is no need to panic as the Blues remain firmly in the hunt for domestic and Europe glory.

“I don’t know why people say we’re not clicking. We have only lost one game this season. We lost against Wigan and we didn’t play well there at all. We have now come to Apoel and won so that’s what counts,” the England international told the Evening Standard.

“If you look over the season, we have clicked together as a team. We try to win every game and when we don’t we just try harder in the next match.

“It’s a big game on Sunday against Liverpool but they lost the other night and will be trying to improve as well.

“The added bonus is that we have won our match in Europe and with a clean sheet as well. We hope to qualify as soon as we can.”
