Chelsea veteran Frank Lampard believes Barcelona have set the standard but is convinced his Blues side are not far behind.

Chelsea veteran Frank Lampard believes Barcelona have set the standard but is convinced his Blues side are not far behind.

Many have suggested the current Catalan side is one of the greatest of all time and few have doubted the claims. However, Lampard is adamant that Chelsea have the class to take on and beat the Champions League holders if they do face the La Liga champions this season. He said:

“The pressure is cranked up regardless. We have been cranked up from the minute Mr Abramovich came into the club. There might be more pressure ­because people harp on about the fact that we have been close a lot of times. But pressure is always there.

“It seems to get tougher every year because the quality – particularly in Spain and with Barcelona – means the bar has been raised.

“Barcelona are the model. We know that.

“But there is no way that Chelsea are that far behind. We have shown we have the ability if it comes to playing ­Barcelona.”
