We didn't get the result that we did against Spurs the last time we visited the capital, but Chelsea were mighty relieved to grab the points.

Chelsea manager Frank Lampard, speaking to Match of the Day: "The second half was the most pleasing thing. It was a good test for us today. We changed things a little in the second half and we showed a little more flexibility and creativity.

"We were upbeat, we had urgency, the tempo was good, and that got us the win.

"We want to score goals. You can see the fans - I think they're happy with what they're seeing at the moment. We want more.

"If we want to keep moving up, we can do better. So far this season, though, things are going well."

On Ross Barkley's injury:"It's an ankle injury. We need to assess it and see how bad it is."
