Chelsea will hope that Liam Delap can fire you on more cutlery, but you have a bigger problem with your wings.
According to the former Blues middle field player Emmanuel Petit, this is in front of another potentially hectic summer transfer window.

Delap is to be presented as the youngest striker in Chelsea in a signing of £ 30 million from Ipswich Town.
The 22-year-old will join a club who has tried to get the best out of strikers since they had Didier Drogba and Diego Costa.
Alvaro Morata, Kai Havertz and Romelu Lukaku are just a few of the names that have fallen under expectations.
After his first full season, Delap was able to change the Premier League after his first full season, in which he scored 12 goals despite the relegation with Ipswich.
However, Petit has expressed his concerns about another position that Chelsea has to address despite his need for a striker like Delap.
“I don’t know if he will be the solution,” he said when he was asked about White and Jordan about the upcoming step of the England U21 star.
“I think for myself when you look at the top teams, take a look at the wingers, Paris Saint-Germain, Barcelona.
“They make the difference all the time. For me, the biggest problem for Chelsea … Most people and the media concentrate on No. 9.
“I think the biggest problem for me is not No. 9 at Chelsea, the biggest problem is the wing players.
“You don’t bring what you have to play to play the big teams in Europe and in the Premier League.

“I think you have to get a lot more templates, also much more goals, you have to be a greater danger on the field.
“The way Chelsea plays when you have not kept driving these wingers to put pressure on the defenders in your zone.
“You will always concentrate on the strikers, but the striker is also dependent on the wingers.”
“You tried it. They stated [Mykhailo] Mudryk, [Raheem] Sterling, [Pedro] Neto, they tried, “said host Jim White.
“You are not good enough or in your eyes?”
“They are not good enough for me,” replied Petit. “You are good players, but I think it’s something in your head, you have not reached the next stage.

“People have been concentrating on a big no for years.
“But the wingers were also incredible, and that is the biggest problem with Chelsea for me.”
Chelsea has a wealth of wingers in their books in the summer.
Sterling and Neto are accompanied by other talents, including Noni Madueke, Youngster Tyrique George in the incoming Estevao Willian.
Jadon Sancho was loaned at the blues of Manchester United this season, although he will be in the new campaign on Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea had the obligation to permanently buy the 25-year-old for £ 25 million, instead a penalty fee of 5 million GBP pays after they had not agreed.

Talk sports reported last month that Enzo Maresca’s team had led Borussia Dortmund about Jamie Gitten.
The former winger of the Manchester City Academy has a contract in the German Club by 2028.
Chelsea could also look a new goalkeeper this summer because they have contacted AC Milan for Mike Maignan.
