Instead, they sit in seventh place after a performance that left Lampard furious.
“I am angry because I want us to win games,” he said. Sky Sports.
“We were lazy to give away a penalty, lazy to give away a free kick that he (Xhaka) hits in the top corner and I’m very, very disappointed in the way we approach the first half because some things in football are basic. .
“It’s not tactics or systems, it’s do you want to run, push your teammate back and sprint? Or do you want to jog and say ‘maybe I don’t have to run’ and we make that decision instead of the right one. “

The Chelsea manager accused some of his players of being “60 or 70 percent” during the defeat at the Emirates.
Lampard added: “I will take responsibility on the outside but the players have to take responsibility because the message was clear.
“This was a dangerous game for us, a talented team, against the wall and a London derby. We were in a good position where we could have gone seconds and they were in a downward-looking position. That’s a dangerous combination, the players knew it and we got ready for the game.
“But if you go out and play at 60 or 70 percent, or some players who played at that level, you’re not going to win any Premier League games.”
