Keown now believes Lampard has no choice but to pair Antonio Rudiger at the heart of his defence to fix the leaky side. Lampard has appeared to prefer the partnership of Andreas Christensen and Kurt Zouma, but Keown has warned Rudiger has to be drafted back into the starting line up. Antonio Rudiger is yet to feature for Chelsea since the start of the new season, missing all the three matches.

Rudiger is yet to feature for Chelsea since the start of the season, leading to speculation he could leave the club this summer.
