Jakarta –
Frank Lampard insists that Chelsea are still in the process of reaching the top level at the moment. He asked the public to be calm and collected about his team’s journey.
Chelsea started the season without too much trouble. After winning 3-1 over Brighton & Hove Albion in the English League, the West London team lost 0-2 to Liverpool and won 6-0 over Barnsley in the English League Cup.
Timo Werner et al almost lost to West Bromwich Albion, but saved a point after trailing 0-3 in the first half. Chelsea was then eliminated by Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League Cup on penalties, but managed to climb up with a 4-0 win over Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge, on Saturday (03/10/2020) WIB afternoon in the league continued.
Many consider that this start has not lived up to the high expectations of Chelsea, who have been spending too much in the summer transfer market. Roman Abramovich’s club spent more than £ 200 million to buy Hakim Ziyech, Timo Werner, Ben Chilwell, Kai Havertz and Edouard Mendy, and also hired seasoned defender Thiago Silva for free.
Chelsea are expected to be able to get closer to Liverpool and Manchester City, who want to compete again for the title. But the signs so far have been less convincing.
Chelsea manager Frank Lampard confirmed that his team’s development process is still ongoing. Therefore, he hopes that the public will be calmer and not easily enthused by the results of the team.
“There were a lot of reactionary things about us because of the expectations that there were. After the West Brom game, people wanted us to react,” Lampard said. BBC.
“I didn’t react and even after today I won’t react too much, we’re still working. I really think people have to stay calm.”
“I have to, I can’t get caught up in the conversation. My job is not to be reactionary and not be too disappointed or too depressed.”
“We got a lot of credit after finishing fourth last season and now people have to stay calm. We are not going to go straight from that position to 100 points,” he added.
With the victory over Palace, Chelsea are currently in fourth place in the Premier League standings armed with seven points from four games. The highlights of the Chelsea vs Crystal Palace match can be seen on Mola TV through this link.
