Goals the big issue for returning Chelsea great Lampard

His ability to hold the ball up, allowing others to come into the play, and defence-splitting passes have been the distinguishing feature of Chelsea's attack for years and his close season departure to Real Madrid has left a gaping hole. With on-loan Juventus striker Gonzalo Higuain having left, Lampard must rely for goals on 32-year-old Olivier Giroud, who has never scored consistently for Chelsea in the Premier League, or the previously overlooked Tammy Abraham and Michy Batshuayi.

Although Chelsea ended the season by winning the Europa League, it was no surprise when Sarri departed, his style of football deemed one-paced and uninspiring. Lampard has even vowed to regularly watch reserve and academy football, something many of his predecessors appeared less interested in. That suggests he knows this season's restrictions can be used to his advantage.
