Chelsea boss Frank Lampard believes his side were desperately unlucky to find themselves on the wrong end of a 4-0 thrashing against Manchester United.
The Blues played well in spells at Old Trafford but the home side were clinical when it mattered, Marcus Rashford netting twice with Anthony Martial and Daniel James also getting on the score-sheet.
And Lampard believes the scoreline was extremely harsh on his team.
'Poor mistakes for the goal,' he told Sky Sports following the match. 'We controlled major parts of the first half. Probably poor decisions in the final third.
'In the first half we should be in front. It’s a lot easier for them when they’re 3-0 up. This is a counter-attacking team. They have pace and if you turn over the ball, they will counter attack you. We were the ones on the ball. We have loads of lessons to learn. It was no way near a 4-0.
It’s clear I have tried to stay away from transfer ban and injuries we all know that. I tried to get N’Golo [Kante] on to give him minutes. I don’t want that excuse [injuries].
'Four mistakes. Not many more than that, they were clinical. We have to be grown up about it because it doesn’t feel nice. In the performance in parts of it wasn’t 4-0.
