Chelsea ace, Tammy Abraham, has urged manager Frank Lampard to stick with his front three combination after victory at Tottenham.
After the front three of Abraham, Mason Mount and Willian tormented Spurs all afternoon, the towering frontman loves the flexibility he and his team-mates are showing… even if it means more work for him up top.
The England international said: “It’s something we need. We are going to come up against different opponents who will sometimes drop deep, press us, so we have to be ready. Whatever the manager wants we have to apply.
“We’ve been learning from the beginning of the season and we are taking it into games.
“We only had a short time to practice on this formation, but we have done it before against Wolves, so we were confident it would work.

“Yeah it does [his role change] – there’s a bit more running but it’s nothing I can’t handle.
“We felt that formation was going to help us beat Spurs and it worked.”
