Lack of depth up front

Batshuayi

Michy Batshuayi had two shots against United, neither of which were on target. He should have done a lot better from the cutback from Mason Mount in particular, and his lack of confidence in front of goal showed why Lampard was desperate to sign a striker in January.

Tammy Abraham’s ankle injury means the Chelsea boss may well have to turn to Olivier Giroud when the Blues face Tottenham this weekend. Considering the Frenchman wanted out in January, that is hardly an ideal situation going into such an important game.
