After being stopped from making signings due to a transfer ban, picking the starting eleven has got much harder for new boss Frank Lampard, after retaining the same inconsistent squad from last season.
However, after a tweet from a fan on Twitter, some of the fans decided they knew exactly who should start in midfield next season.
The midfield options comprised of Ross Barkley, N’Golo Kante, Jorginho, Mateo Kovacic, and Mason Mount. Fans couldn’t agree on one set of three midfielders after four images were tweeted out by a fan.
How should our midfield line up vs Man United on the 11th of August?

After the problems in midfield last season, fans will be hoping for far better performances next season. Out of the five options in midfield, Mount scored the most goals last season, scoring 11 times in the Championship, while on-loan at Derby County last season.
Here is a selection of tweets from fans who all gave their opinion when choosing one of the four options:
Quite clearly 1, shouldn’t even be a debate

3 Barkley will thrive a lot more under Lampard and we can’t put mount under so much pressure to deliver straight away we need to feed him in not put pressure on the kid straight away
