Ill-discipline has a price at Chelsea

Frank Lampard is running a tight ship at Chelsea and he has imposed a strict disciplinary regime on his young squad. An internal list of player fines was leaked to the Daily Mail and it is understood to be authentic. Being late is something Lampard simply won't tolerate and fines for being late for meetings start at £500, a sum the offender would have to pay every minute up to his arrival. Being late for medical appointments and treatment come to £2,500.

A player arriving late for training would have to fork over £20,000. If that wasn't enough, any fine outstanding fine not paid after 14 days gets doubled. Despite the seemingly heavy fines, most Chelsea players will be able to deal with an offense comfortably due to their huge salaries. For example, goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga and midfielder Ngolo Kante are believed to earn £150,000 a week.
