But there is no indication the season will definitely resume then – despite Euro 2020 being pushed back by a year.

Indeed, there are reports claiming the campaign could even be declared void, denying Liverpool their first-ever Prem title.

Chelsea boss Lampard claims times are tough for people from all walks of life.

But he is trying to take the positives from the situation as he spends more time at home.

And Lampard adds the break in play means injured stars like N’Golo Kante have more time to recover.

He told Chelsea: “I’ve been self-isolating a long time, we’re trying to do the right thing.

“We have to look at the positives. With how busy my job is I don’t have enough time at home to be with my family.

“I’ve had a lot of time to run around and play and spent time so that has been a positive for me.

“This situation has been changing frequently, it’s new ground. I let the players know I’m there for them all individually because these are tough times.

“My message to players is always look after your family and the motivation will come.

“It’s good for them [players with injuries, but frustrating in some cases.

“Ruben Loftus-Cheek looked like he was almost ready to play and has now lost that match fitness.

“But for people like Kante and Callum Hudson-Odoi it’s been a good time.”
