Chelsea manager Frank Lampard is looking forward to working on the training pitch this week.

It is the first time Lampard has a full week to work with his players since August.

"Yes, maybe. I think that a little bit of fatigue can be part of the picture and we will look at that behind the scenes," Lampard said after Saturday's loss to Bournemouth. "Probably more for training, a long week.

"We have had a spell now of game after game after game. Sometimes that feels good when you are winning consistently.

"Now we have had difficult results so it might be good for us to go over some things on the training pitch."
