Chelsea boss Mourinho careful with Lampard fitness

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is playing it safe with Frank Lampard.

The Daily Star Sunday says Lampard missed training yesterday, after an Achilles injury forced him out of last Wednesday's opening match of the tour in Bangkok.

Mourinho will take no risks with injuries and Lampard, 35, is unlikely to play against a Malaysia XI today.

Chelsea then travel to Jakarta to face an Indonesia All-Stars team on Thursday.
