Frank Lampard has upped pace
JANUARY was meant to be the month when everything went wrong for Chelsea – at least that is what Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger hoped.
Chelsea, however, go into their final game of January against Burnley tomorrow with the chance to open up a four-point lead at the top of the Premier League before Manchester United and Arsenal do battle. But their 3-0win over Birmingham maintained Chelsea’s 100 per cent record for the month.
“It would be nice to win at Burnley and open up a gap before Arsenal and United play each other. Those little mental things are great.”
Frank Lampard said: “We didn’t say everything would go wrong in January, everyone else did. We have gone up a gear in January.
