Chelsea manager Frank Lampard is not prepared to bring a club legend back into the fold to work on the team's defense.

The Blues boss has taken the step of bringing Petr Cech onto the training pitch, with the legendary shot stopper working with Kepa Arrizabalaga.

Chelsea conceded three in a 3-3 draw with West Bromwich Albion at the weekend.

But Lampard is not going to take that action for his defence, as he believes they will come good in time.

"No," he said in response to that question from reporters, via Goal.

"I was relating pretty much to the set-piece goal because that's something that's not difficult.

"At times, there can be areas of the pitch that could look different or the shape of the team.

"But at set-pieces, we have meetings about who marks who, if you let someone roll off the back of you and be free to score a goal then that's a clear mistake."
