Lampard admits to facing 'reality check' after Chelsea's Man City drubbing

 The Blues were outplayed throughout Sunday's fixture and now languish in eighth place after a horrendous recent run of form

Chelsea manager Frank Lampard acknowledged that he was given a sharp jolt of reality as the Blues capitulated at home to Manchester City on Sunday. 

Lampard's charges have been in torrid form since the start of December, following up a run of nine unbeaten Premier League games with four defeats in their last six outings. 

The latest, a 3-1 reverse at Stamford Bridge at the hands of City, was concerning not just for the result but also the subdued display offered by the hosts.
