Chelsea dismiss claims Lampard will miss the big kick-off

CHELSEA have scotched speculation that England midfielder Frank Lampard is set to miss the start of the season with a broken toe.

Lampard has featured in all Chelsea’s pre-season matches despite suffering a minor injury during their stay at an American training camp.

The England midfielder has not missed a single training session since collecting the knock and is set to play a major part in Sunday’s FA Community Shield showdown with Manchester United.
