Chelsea manager Frank Lampard says there were still lots of positives to take from the game despite being beaten 2-0 at home to Liverpool in the Premier League
Frank Lampard said he was encouraged by the spirit, desire and defending of his Chelsea team, despite their 2-0 defeat to Liverpool.
The Blues were reduced to 10 men when Andreas Christensen was sent off just before half-time and goals from Sadio Mane after the break secured a dominant Liverpool all three points, with Jorginho missing a penalty for Chelsea.
However, Lampard was keen to take the positives from his side's performance and ranked it better than their 3-1 opening weekend win at Brighton.
"I was happy about our defensive game," he told Sky Sports. "I wanted them to be better on the ball. We showed moments on the counter-attack where we dangerous".
