“Lampard knows a tough run of games is coming up and the onus is on us to stay near the top of the table. With Arsenal next, he sees a team of great quality who are in a tough moment, making them dangerous opposition we will have to prepare well for.
Speaking to SkySports Lampard said, “Arsenal’s a tough game, people will look at the position they’re in for us those tend to be the toughest of games sometimes”
