Chelsea are floundering domestically and are five points adrift of Tottenham in fourth, whilst go into tonight’s game against Benfica in the Champions League as underdogs.
Lampard told Chelsea TV: “The fixtures and where we are in the table don’t lie – we’re not as good as we used to be. We used to have a fortress here and for whatever reason we’re just not doing it. It’s something we must all put right.
“You know a derby against a very good Tottenham side is going to be tough but I don’t think we were at it enough. We had to play more with the urgency we showed against Napoli.
“Against Tottenham, we didn’t really do enough to lift the fans. We had the high of Napoli, then we got beaten by Manchester City and now we need to up it again.”
