Zouma has been a mainstay in Lampard's back four this season, starting all but one of our 11 league matches and forming a strong centre-back partnership alongside Thiago Silva. With Edouard Mendy behind them, the duo have seen just three goals conceded in the past seven games, including clean sheets against Tottenham, Manchester United and Sevilla. Settled, secure and scoring goals, it's no wonder the boss is happy. 'He's playing really well this season,' Lampard said of his French defender. 'The way we're playing as a unit right now and defending as a team helps raise standards but Kurt has to take all the credit for his individual development. https://i.imgur.com/mwXliUw.jpg Zouma's powerful header edged us in front against Leeds 'He had injuries and went on loan a couple of times but he trains so well, he doesn't miss a day, he wants to do extras and be better. Those things for me are absolutely fundamental for a player to improve and right now the level he's playing at week-in, week-out is brilliant.' Lampard believes added confidence is helping the 26-year-old improve his goals tally, which stands at four in the Premier League following his latest headed effort against Leeds. The experience of Thiago Silva next to him has also brought more composure to the Frenchman's game. 'The eye-catching thing is the amount of goals he's scoring from set-pieces,' continued Lampard. 'For me, that's just him going up more confident and with more belief in himself. He's always had size and spring but now you're seeing him in all parts of the pitch being a real threat aerially and doing his job. https://i.imgur.com/JmQjl1G.jpg Thiago Silva captained the team and led by example at the back with another commanding display 'Thiago Silva being next to him is a great standard-bearer when he looks left and sees him. As a unit, we look stronger and Kurt has been a big part of that. That's why I've been so positive that he will be a big deal for me here and he's showing that in terms of how he's playing so I'm delighted with him.' The Blues did not have things all their own way at the Bridge, with Patrick Bamford firing the visitors into an early lead, forcing Lampard's side to win from behind for the second time in three home matches. With the score then at 2-1, opportunities were passed up and nervousness was creeping in. Would Chelsea have held on for three points last season? 'We have got better,' Lampard said of his side's improving game management. 'The element of this game that felt a bit like last year was when it was 2-1, we were missing chances and you feel nervous. Hopefully now the players are believing that we can see games out. 'There are still moments when we have to go longer and get up the pitch to keep opponents away from our goal. We have to be secure in possession and the players are getting better at that. It's massively important so hopefully that belief continues to grow. 'We're in good form but this is a tough league and there will be moments where we will need that about us. It's helped by some of the experienced players we've brought into the team – Thiago Silva first and foremost, but also Mendy will help us a lot as well in terms of his distribution in seeing out games.' --------------------------------------------------------------------------- https://www.chelseafc.com/en/news/2020/12/08/ lampard-unconcerned-by-werner-missed-chances---he-s-so-dangerous Lampard unconcerned by Werner missed chances: 'He's so dangerous even when he doesn't score' 08 Dec 2020 Timo Werner may be goalless in five games but Frank Lampard says the German forward is still offering the team plenty and will be on the scoresheet again in no time. https://i.imgur.com/kb5Ed29.jpg Since joining from RB Leipzig in the summer, Werner has netted eight goals in 17 Chelsea appearances, a decent return considering he is adapting to a new league and a new country. His current run without finding the net has come off the back of Germany's 6-0 thrashing at the hands of Spain in the last international break, but Lampard does not believe that has had a lasting effect on his form. Instead the boss has reiterated just what an impression Werner has made since arriving. 'I have no worries about Timo,' said the boss. 'He has come into this league and made a big impact straightaway with his speed, direct nature, and things he is creating for the team. He is getting lots of chances, he makes lots of chances through his explosive nature and his eye to be in the right areas. 'Timo is going to be a huge player for this club. He has scored some goals already, of course he will want to be scoring more, he has missed a couple but if he keeps getting there he will score those goals. 'I don't think the Spain game has got anything to do with it,' added Lampard. 'I spoke to him after that game and it didn't feel like it was a negative thing that was going to carry over. He played at Newcastle in the next game and ripped them through on about five occasions. He was so dangerous even though he didn't get his goal. It's a small moment all strikers have and I have no worries.' -- 当我漫游在斯坦弗森林时，我看见了雀尔西，米尔斯的女儿，在傍晚初升的明月中， 在泰晤士河旁一处林地空间上翩然舞蹈。所有痛苦的记忆都离开了我，我像落入迷离 幻境中一般，因为雀尔西是伊露维塔儿女中最美的一位。她身上那袭蓝色的衣裳宛如 万里无云的晴空，她灰色的眼睛像是傍晚群星闪烁的天空；她的斗篷上绣着金色的花 朵，她的头发漆黑如暮色中的阴影。她的荣光与美好，就像树叶上的光芒，像是潺潺 流水，像是这迷离世界上方闪烁的繁星；她脸上有闪亮的光辉。 --
