Frank Lampard can unleash Chelsea weapon with Arsenal motivation to end Mikel Arteta title hopes

Almost four months on from when Mykhailo Mudryk was spotted in the stands at Stamford Bridge for Chelsea's Premier League clash with Crystal Palace, the Ukrainian is still without a goal for his new club.

The 22-year-old signed a long-term contract with the Blues after a move from Shakhtar Donetsk that will eventually be worth just short of £90million. However, almost four months following his arrival, Mudryk has failed to make too much of a positive impact on the pitch for Chelsea as we head into the final games of his first season – albeit a half-season – with the club.

Mudryk has only 487 Premier League minutes under his belt, with just five starts in the top-flight since moving to west London. The 90 minutes he played against Brighton last month in the 2-1 defeat at Stamford Bridge is the only time he has completed a full match since moving from his homeland. It's also his only start in the Premier League since Frank Lampard took interim charge of the club last month.
