Frank Lampard does not believe Manchester City have suffered any drop off in quality from last season, adding Chelsea's hopes of lodging a title challenge will not end if they lose on Saturday. The Blues sit third, a place and a point above defending champions City, and head to the Etihad Stadium on the back of six successive Premier League victories. City lost to leaders Liverpool prior to the international break, taking their tally of defeats to the season to three. However, Lampard does not see City as being more vulnerable than they were last season, and insists Chelsea - who could finish the day in second place if results go their way - will not be downhearted if they lose.
