Chelsea boss Frank Lampard has admitted Chelsea’s use of the ball against Real Madrid last week was poor and reveals the team have worked on it ahead of tonight’s Champions League clash at Stamford Bridge.

“We had opportunities to score last week, but at the same time there were a lot of things we could have done better in that game,” Lampard said.

“I felt that in-game, and I feel it even more having reviewed the game. There were things we wanted to do from the outset that we didn’t do well enough throughout the game.

“That’s not just the physical side, it was our use of the ball. We can improve on that and we have to improve on that to have a chance of turning this tie around. We have worked on that and hopefully you see the fruits of that in the game.

“I am clear with the players with that. I know they have the capacity to give this a good go, but we must get our game right and be better than we were last week.”
