Lampard: There needs to be a new energy
Speaking after Chelsea's loss to Brighton, Frank Lampard says Chelsea need to have a reset before the second leg if they are to pull off a comeback against the Champions League holders.
"I've been at the club nine days, I don't like what I saw today. I'm not going to try and dress that up in any way. We have to be really honest about that," he told BBC Sport.
"There should be a feeling when you play for Chelsea of pride involved. We have to do more for Tuesday. To get there, there needs to be a new energy. That needs to come back."

Ancelotti: Vinicius, Kroos fit to play Chelsea
Speaking after Real Madrid's 2-0 win over Cadiz on Saturday, Carlo Ancelotti confirmed that Vinicius Junior and Toni Kroos will be fit to play against Chelsea after both were struggling with minor muscle strains.
Vinicius and Kroos were absent from the matchday squad to play Cadiz entirely, while Luka Modric, Dani Carvajal and David Alaba were left on the bench.
"They [Vinicius and Kroos] couldn’t play because they both had small issues," Ancelotti told reporters.
"They trained separately today but tomorrow [Sunday] they’ll train as normal and be fine for Tuesday."
Ferdinand: Chelsea 'were there for the taking' in first leg
Speaking after Real Madrid's first-leg win over Chelsea, BT Sport's Rio Ferdinand thought Real Madrid would be "disappointed" to only beat Chelsea 2-0.
Chelsea were reduced to 10 men when Ben Chilwell received a red card before the hour mark. Ferdinand thought it was then that Real could have been more clinical and extended their lead further in the tie.
"They will be disappointed in Real Madrid's dressing room," the former Manchester United defender said.
"Yes they'll be happy they won the game, but tomorrow they'll wake up and think 'we could have finished this game and punished this team'.
"They were there for the taking. I thought Chelsea dug in but they were let off a little bit at times. Lacklustre finishing, the final ball and decision making by Real Madrid in the second half might not have been there for them.
"I think Frank [Lampard] needs to rally around this team now and tell his players this game isn't over.
"If you get an early goal at Stamford Bridge, the atmosphere is electric when that happens in these types of games so bring the belief. Yes you lost 2-0 but the tie is still in the balance."
