Chelsea could sign tall players to solve set-piece issues

Frank Lampard says Chelsea could look to solve their problems at set-pieces by signing taller players.

“With Liverpool, I remember a lot of talk about them and set pieces a few seasons ago. They were zonal and conceding a lot,"  Lampard told a press conference.

"They signed Virgil van Dijk and he heads out everything. There’s a huge relation to personnel and if you don’t have that size, the main thing is trying to compete as hard as you can and making it difficult for other teams to score.

“But I’m not making excuses because we haven’t done that well enough and that has to improve. When you look at who you might bring in with the balance of the squad, it is certainly something to take into account.”
