Manchester City could be crowned champions as early as today if Nottingham Forest beat Arsenal and Chelsea manager Frank Lampard was asked in yesterday's conference call if his side will be heading down the tunnel of honor to applaud the new champions at the start of the season. the match with the "citizens" on Sunday.

"We will think about it. We can and we will. I remember when I was a footballer myself and it was a very respectful gesture, so I don't mind doing it at all. Manchester City have set the standards. They are close to the status of the greatest team in the history of the Premier League", said the Chelsea technician, while his team has scored as many goals as only Erling Haaland this season in the championship, 36: "It is a fantastic statistic of his. When I was last on the Chelsea bench I loved it here. His level was clear when we played against him against Salzburg."

Chelsea played the Norwegian in a pre-season game in 2019, but the striker did not score on the day, before Borussia Dortmund secured his signature in January. "We have scored 36 goals and this is another story. But I really wanted it here, but it didn't happen. His level was clear at that point. We had played a friendly against Salzburg and he was fantastic. I like to see players of that level, with that personality to be the best and he has proven that he is. I think he is special and I was sure he would fit right in because of his level. I don't know if he would agree to come here then, but I would really like it to happen," added the 44-year-old.

Badiashili's injury has brought the number of injured Chelsea players to 8 before the visit to Manchester: "We are in the same situation we have been in recently. Mount, James, Ciluell, Kante and Kukureja are not ready. Koulibaly has trained this week, but is not ready for such a match. Badiashil injured himself in training two days ago and we are assessing him as we speak."
