(GSM) – Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard would love to seal the Premier League at Stamford Bridge on Sunday against Wigan but he’s not taking victory for granted.
After their win over Liverpool (2-0) yesterday, the Blues only need to match or better Manchester United’s result against Stoke to win the league.
“It would be nice to do it in front of our own fans,” said Lampard, before insisting the title was not yet won.
“Obviously Manchester United have a tough game but we’ll never go that far, we have a big game next week.
“But we knew the Liverpool game was huge for us. We knew if we had dropped points we would have given the momentum to United.”
The lead has changed hands numerous times throughout the season but Chelsea ensured that they go into the final day in pole position with victory at Anfield.
“We’ve definitely had a couple of moments in the season where we haven’t been at our best and we’ve dropped points, and the momentum went back with Manchester United but in the last 10 games our performances have been fantastic,” stated Lampard.
“We’ve got a bit of a head of steam up now and we’re in a good position.”
