Frank Lampard believes Chelsea should stick with Jose Mourinho, despite the club's run of three wins from their opening 11 Premier League games.
Speaking on Monday Night Football, former Chelsea midfielder Lampard urged the club's hierarchy to think long-term after a sixth Premier League defeat of the season at the weekend left the Blues 15th in the table.
Mourinho's side suffered a 3-1 loss at home to Liverpool on Saturday, their third Premier League defeat at Stamford Bridge already this campaign, and Lampard said parts of Chelsea's game looked "broken" against Jurgen Klopp's team.

"Jose Mourinho loves a high-intensity game, and I didn't see that," Lampard said. "I watched Chelsea press [against Liverpool], and it was broken. When you are a couple of seconds late, the opponents can play out.
"I don't think I'm being over-critical, I know the boys, but some people are leaders and vocal in the dressing room. We all know Chelsea have had that spine for quite a few years, but you look around now, and you think do they [still]?
