Chelsea Q&A - LIVE!

The situation is looking increasingly ominous for Frank Lampard after his side’s dismal run of form continued last night.

Goals from Wilfred Ndidi and James Maddison condemned the Blues to a 2-0 defeat by Leicester at the King Power Stadium - their fifth loss in eight Premier League matches after some brief respite against Morecambe and Fulham.
