Frank Lampard attended the press conference after the Chelsea – Liverpool game. The trainer was asked, among others for Kepa Arrizabalaga’s fatal mistake.
“The Blues” succumbed to “The Reds” in the hit of the 2nd round of the Premier League. Frank Lampard’s players did not avoid serious mistakes that had a key impact on the course of the meeting. First, Christensen saw the red card, then Kepa Arrizabalaga behaved badly, and Jorginho did not use the penalty kick.
No wonder the Chelsea coach was disappointed after the final whistle.
– You have to remember that this is still a preparatory period, I saw the commitment, everyone wanted to fight. The players did their best, but I am disappointed with the result he announced.
– We need more time, it is the beginning of a new chapter for us. You can’t draw great conclusions after the second game of the season – added.
Lampard also assessed Kepa’s attitude. The Englishman stood up for his ward.
– He made a mistake and we conceded a goal. However, we have to keep working, and Kepa knows she has our support. We want him to feel confident, goalkeepers really need it. It was a mistake though, he admitted it himself. It can happen to anyone in football – he pointed out.
In the next Chelsea game, however, Willy Caballero will be in the goal. This Wednesday, “The Blues” will play against Barnsley in the League Cup.
– We previously agreed that Willy Caballero will perform in this meeting. I want everyone to work hard – he summed up.
