THE FRANK LAMPARD DEBATE.

After scoring against Bolton on Saturday and with that the Premier League highest goal scoring midfielder and his 182nd goal for Chelsea, we are still sitting here wondering if Frank Lampard will be picked to play our next game at West Brom away on Saturday.

This is the question most of us are asking ourselves at the moment. The press are speculating that AVB was "under orders" to play Lampard, Cole and Essien on Saturday but this has been denied by AVB. I think i've read somewhere that AVB calls it "simple squad rotation".

Does this mean that we should now expect Raul Meireles to come in for Frank at the Hawthorns? based on current form I hope not!.

I am proud to say that leading up to the Bolton game I called for AVB to restore the starting eleven to the strongest we have on paper and suggested it if was me I would start with a certain 11 players. Those eleven players that started the game (apart from JT because he was injured) were the EXACT ones I wanted us to start with.

If Chelsea are to get back up the table and put pressure on the likes of Arsenal and Spurs, we need to become consistent once again and stick with our strongest eleven. For me that means a midfield three of Essien, Lampard and Ramires. The only change I would consider is Romeu coming in but for some reason he is now out of favour with AVB.

For me, purely and simply because of what he offers Chelsea in his all round performance and especially the influence he has in and around the box, Frank Lampard should be starting week in, week out now.

The question remains whether or not AVB feels the same as me. What about you lot? What do you think about Frank Lampard and our run in now until the end of the season?.

Where do you stand on Frank Lampard? Do you think he should start every week?
