Frank Lampard is out for another three weeks.
Poor old Frank hasn't played since Chelsea playes Stoke City back in the good old warm days of August.
The abductor muscle which Lamps has struggled with has gone again and the England midfielder will have to sit out games against Sunderland , Birmingham and Newcastle.
All three sides are so-called physical sides and Lamps will be missed.
Will Frank play again this season?
Well it's certainly the longest spell on the treatment table in his career and at 32, one has to ask what lasting damage has been done.
