No Lampard in the starting 11 tonight.

It's all I hope.

I've watched a lot of PSG this season and Frank just cannot compete in any way shape or form against any of their players. If Luiz is fit it's him and Ramires or we could even go with a midfield 3 with Mikel sitting as well.

The games v Spurs and Palace showed how much slower we get on and off the ball with Lampard in midfield.

And the first half of the season, with Lampard playing almost week in and week out in the pivot, were the games where we conceded 2 or 3 goals almost every game.

Mourinho must have learned his lesson by now. Frank is nearly 36, and was never a player to rely upon defensively in terms of covering ground. His talent consisted of making runs from the spear of a 4-3-3 to shoot from the edge of the box, almost like a second striker.

We play the right team, we have every chance of doing well. But we need to press them relentlessly.

I can see 3 in CM, keep it tight away from home in the CL.

Lampard should play as he is more likely to score apart from Schurrle and Hazard!
