Chelsea manager Frank Lampard is preparing his team to face Manchester United in an FA Cup semi-final AFP/Julian FinneyLONDON: Frank Lampard has rejected Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's claims that Chelsea will have an unfair advantage in Sunday's FA Cup semi-final because they have had more time to rest.
Despite United having just three days' preparation for Sunday's clash, Blues boss Lampard has dismissed the idea the Londoners have an extra edge. "It's an age-old question. A lot of managers, you probably dig out the times when I've mentioned it, but at the same time it isn't about advantage or not."Sometimes it works in your favour to be playing regularly and ticking over, so, no, I don't see it."
The former Leicester midfielder remains sidelined with a hamstring injury, leaving Jorginho in the frame to sit at the base of midfield again.
