Defence
Chelsea have made significant recruitments in defence with the signings of Silva and Chilwell.
Silva has joined the Blues on a one-year contract with the option for a further 12 months, while Chilwell arrived from Leicester in a £50m deal.
Both are likely to feature heavily in Lampard’s line-ups this season, alongside club captain Cesar Azpilicueta and Kurt Zouma, although Reece James and Antonio Rudiger are also options.

Midfield
N’Golo Kante and Mateo Kovacic were regulars in midfield for Lampard last season.
The pair are likely to play significant roles again this term, with Mason Mount, Jorginho and Ross Barkley also available for the Blues.

Werner was signed from RB Leipzig for £45m, while Ziyech arrived from Ajax in a £36m deal.
The Blues, though, are still pushing to get a deal for Bayern Leverkusen's Havertz over the line.
Willian’s departure for Arsenal has freed up the right-wing spot for Ziyech.
Werner can play as a central striker and operate in the wide areas.
Christian Pulisic is also likely to form part of Chelsea’s new-look attack, given his form since the restart.
