London –
Manager Chelsea Frank Lampard sure to play Willy Caballero when to see Barnsley. However, he denied parking Kepa Arrizabalaga because it makes a blunder.
Kepa received a lot of attention after making a blunder when Chelsea lost 0-2 to Liverpool at Stamford Bridge on Sunday (20/9). He made a fatal mistake when his attempt to pass the ball was intercepted by Sadio Mane who did pressing.
Mane, who stood in front of the Chelsea goal then easily shook Kepa’s net to score his second goal in the match. After this blunder, many Blues fans wanted Lampard to immediately remove Kepa from the position of the Blues’ number one goalkeeper.
This hope is in line with Chelsea’s move, which is reported to complete the transfer of Edouard Mendy from Rennes next week. But before the goalkeeper from Senegal arrives, Chelsea must undergo a match against Barnsley at Stamford Bridge, Thursday (9/24/2020) in the morning WIB.
Lampard will certainly not give Kepa the opportunity to guard Chelsea’s goal in this match. He revealed that he would play Caballero against Barnsley.
However, Lampard denied this decision was made due Kepa Arrizabalaga made a blunder in the match against Liverpool. He confirmed that he had planned to play the 38-year-old goalkeeper in the Carabao Cup for a long time.
“The decision about Willy Caballero (to start) was made before the match against Liverpool. It was a decision I have made since the cup competition since last season,” said Lampard, quoted from the official Chelsea website.
“Willy trained brilliantly throughout the year. He deserves this opportunity,” said the British man.
