Glen Johnson is confident Chelsea will finish in the top-four this season.
Chelsea have now won their last four games in all competitions and sit just outside the Champions League qualifications spots in fifth place in the table.
Speaking to Betdaq, Johnson said: "If Chelsea can keep going as they are, they could easily break into the top four. I've always said if Frank Lampard could get them into the top six he's done a fantastic job and with the way United and Spurs are going, he could do even better than that.
"Everything he's doing this season is building bridges for the next couple of years, especially as they haven't been able to add to their squad.
"If he can keep improving his players, this Chelsea side will be in a very good spot once the new faces are able to be brought in."
