Chelsea manager Frank Lampard says his side had to take advantage of Manchester United dropping points.

The Red Devils drew 2-2 with Southampton on Monday and the Blues followed it up with a 1-0 win over Norwich City.

They are now third in the league with a healthy points advantage going into their final two games, against Liverpool and Wolves.

"I actually didn't speak to them about [capitalising] today because I think I have mentioned other games around us," Lampard told reporters after the game.

"We all saw the game but I don't think I had to say that to them today.

"We know that when the team around you has a moment like that then you have to capitalise.

"We failed to do that at other times this season.

"All I wanted to do was make sure we did our job tonight. I felt tonight was about us. We were against a team who has just been relegated.

"With all respect, here at home if we get our job done at home we get three points and we did do that."
