Last updated : 27 September 2004 By Rich Godden
Lamps played a key role for Chelsea in winning the midfield battle which effectively prevented Boro from playing to their strengths!

The ever green midfielder said: "Boro are a very exciting team and it's testament to us that we nullified them.

"We didn't give them a chance and that shows what we're about. A lot of teams will come here and be beaten because of what Boro have got - a well-organised team and two fantastic strikers in Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and Mark Viduka.

"And they've got a fantastic manager. We have won a few games 1-0 now, but Boro are a well-organised team and hard to break down.

"So we have got to be pleased with going there and taking all three points."
