Popular on-air-personality, Rufai Oseni has warned Chelsea fans not to be expectant despite yesterday's victory against Bournemouth.

Coach Frank Lampard got his first victory since his return as Chelsea's interim manager.

Prior, the Blues had lost all four Premier League games since Lampard's return in April but had led through Conor Gallagher's early header.

Reacting to Chelsea's 1-3 victory, he wrote: "Fellow Chelsea fans because Lampard did win yesterday doesn’t mean he will beat Mancity ooo. The game will be over in the first 30mins and Lampard will be scrambling and ploughing for answers."

Matias Vina leveled for Bournemouth, but Benoit Badiashile and Joao Felix struck inside the last 10 minutes.

Relegation remains a possibility for the Cherries with three games left, while Chelsea are 11th in the table.

Bournemouth's best spell came early in the second half when Vina missed a chance for a second and Dango Ouattara headed over from close range, but Gary O'Neil's side still have a good chance of avoiding a quick return to the Championship with games against Crystal Palace, Manchester United and Everton to come.

Manchester City will host Chelsea on Sunday, May 21.
