Chelsea Head Coach Frank Lampard admits that his side are 'in a little period', but he's confident of his side bouncing back as their latest defeat has sent them down to eighth.
The Blues conceded three first-half goals on their way to a 3-1 defeat against Manchester City - their fourth loss in six matches.
It's a far cry from their first 11 league matches - a period that saw them as genuine title contenders after just one defeat throughout. Such is the tight nature of the league this season, they're now closer to 14th placed Crystal Palace than they are to third-place Leicester.
