Lampard: Chelsea were never going to be Invincibles & defeats help learning process

The Blues boss saw his side slip to a 1-0 derby defeat to West Ham on Saturday, with more questions being asked of a Premier League coaching rookie

Frank Lampard says setbacks for his young Chelsea side are “not the worst thing” as they were never going to be “Invincibles” and need to take as many lessons from bad times as good.

The Blues have enjoyed a relatively productive 2019-20 campaign to this point, with the faith shown in youth during a two-window transfer embargo being richly rewarded.

They have, however, gone three games without a win in all competitions and suffered back-to-back Premier League defeats against Manchester City and West Ham.
