Frank Lampard showed his ruthless side by axing three players for their win over Watford and says Chelsea now have to deal with the pressure of a race for a top-four place.
The Blues moved back ahead of Manchester United into fourth place, having missed a chance to go third last Wednesday when they lost at West Ham.
Lampard responded by dropping Marcos Alonso, Tammy Abraham and Antonio Rudiger, and was rewarded with a 3-0 win over Watford on what he described as a 'comfortable evening for us'.
He said: 'What pleased me most was a clean sheet, three goals, and a reaction after losing at West Ham.
