Frank Lampard will use three at the back
Having witness a return to a back four for Chelsea against Wolves in Frank Lampard's first game back, there was a degree of concern that the Blues boss would stick with the same system against Real Madrid. It was a set up preferred by the caretaker boss in his first stint in charge of the club and having made the adjustment for Molineux, it appeared it may be his preference.
Fortunately, Lampard showed some flexibility after the weekend's dire outing and while it didn't pay off, the 44-year-old appeared to believethe formation had room for improvement moving forwards, even if Chelsea were unable to utilise the width of the system enough against their hosts on Wednesday night.
