Sound the klaxon, a Chelsea player - sort of - has scored a goal. With just one in five under Frank Lampard, and that being a deflected Conor Gallagher strike, the blunt Blues have continued to find creative ways of not putting the ball in the back of the net.
It appears that Lampard himself has bought into the notion of inevitable non-goalscoring after fielding Gallagher and N'Golo Kante as the supporting unorthodox attackers against Real Madrid and most recently Brentford. In those two matches, it was Kai Havertz and Raheem Sterling who occupied the central role in attack.
Neither player suits the position entirely but with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang still largely ignored and Armando Broja injured, what other choices are there? Lampard hasn't found an answer, Graham Potter couldn't and very soon it will be Mauricio Pochettino's responsibility.
