Frank Lampard's uncle Harry Redknapp has told the interim Chelsea boss why he should play a back three formation against Real Madrid in the Champions League. Lampard's first game back in charge of the Blues ended in defeat against Wolves to leave the club in eleventh, 17 points off the Premier League top four.
Earning Champions League football for next season now appears almost impossible for Chelsea with their hopes of returning for a sixth consecutive campaign resting on winning this year's competition. In order to do that, Chelsea must bypass the reigning European champions Real Madrid who comfortably dispatched of Liverpool in the previous round, while Chelsea knocked out Borussia Dortmund.
Lampard therefore must work to solve a number of glaring issues at Chelsea, with one of those being in attack. The goal scoring woes of the Blues is unlikely to be solved in the three days between the Wolves game and the fixture at Santiago Bernabeu, however there is one thing Lampard can provide a quick fix for.
