EPL: Lampard reveals why Chelsea drew 1-1 with Leicester -

Chelsea manager, Frank Lampard has blamed his team for their disappointing 1-1 home draw against Leicester City on Sunday.

Mason Mount gave the Blues the lead via his first competitive goal for the club, with the midfielder netting early on after dispossessing Leicester’s Wilfred Ndidi, before coolly finishing into the bottom corner.

Ndidi, however, equalized for the visitors as both sides shared the points.

“It’s a results business. The performance against Manchester United made me happier overall compared to today,” Lampard told a post match press conference.

“We have to have game management. That’s something for all of us to work on.

“The first 25 minutes is how we want to play. The rest of the isn’t how we want to play. Credit to Leicester for that.

“The second half we left far too many spaces for them. They’ve got good individual players who can really hurt you.”
