This season, Chelsea have been poor defensively, to say the least. The experienced campaigners - Andreas Christensen, Antonio Rudiger, and Cesar Azpilicueta have been very inconsistent with their performances, while the likes of Fikayo Tomori and Kurt Zouma have made individual mistakes now and then.

The left-back spot is what concerns Lampard the most as both Emerson and Marcos Alonso have been poor this season and Azpilicueta has played over them in that position. So, strengthening the defence should be the Blues' priority and two names that have been linked with the London club are Ben Chilwell and Kalidou Koulibaly.

Chilwell is a player that will get drafted straight into the playing XI for Chelsea. The England international has been incredible for Leicester City this season and he will fit perfectly into Lampard's system at Stamford Bridge.

As for Koulibaly, signing him should be a no brainer for Chelsea. The Senegalese international is considered as one of the best centre-backs in world football and if he joins the Blues, the 29-year-old could have an instant impact on a side that cant stop conceding goals at the moment. His experience is something Lampard and his side could do well with and it remains to be seen if the Blues opt to spend the big bucks to acquire his services.
