Tottenham star issues warning to struggling Chelsea after impressive display at Arsenal
Erik Lamela says he is desperate to play in the Champions League with Tottenham
ERIK LAMELA insists Tottenham can beat Chelsea to a top-four finish in the Premier League this season.
 
Spurs earned a creditable draw at fierce rivals Arsenal on Sunday to go within three points of the Champions League places.
Meanwhile, the struggling Blues are just three points above the relegation zone after a disastrous start to their title defence.
 
And Lamlela, 23, is relishing the challenge of taking Chelsea's place among the European elite.
“I’ve had a great desire to play in the Champions League, ever since I got here," he told The Evening Standard.
 
"This year we are closer than in other years. At certain times you can see we are a team who can get into the top four but we need to carry on working.
“We are getting better and that is important. This team is young and we have a lot of desire to improve. If you have ambition, you can achieve great things. 
"But we have to keep winning, because Chelsea are a team who can get better in any moment.”
