Wolves 2 Chelsea helsea 1

FRANK LAMPARD says his Chelsea players must take a long, hard look at themselves after crashing to a second successive defeat.

The Blues lost despite taking the lead through Olivier Giroud’s seventh goal in seven games. But they ended up going down to a stoppage-time Pedro Neto winner and Lampard (above) said: “At 1-0 we

should see the game out. If you’re not playing that well, which we weren’t, hang on to 1-0. Control the game. Don’t allow counter-attacks. And we did. “Performanc­e is what gives you results resu and we had a long run of got good performanc­es, but maybe the lads think we’re playing well, and when you think that, this is what happens.” “Maybe it’s for the players to think about the game while they’re they resting. Think about tonight, think about the defeat at Everton. This is the Premier League and if you don’t perform, you lose games.

“If you drop your standards, particular­ly away from home, you can lose matches, so it’s a big lesson for the players there.” Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo (above) said: “Happiness lasts for one hour and then we think about Burnley up next.”
