The London giants managed to stop Burnley from getting a single shot on target in their Saturday fixture, and that has to please coach, Frank Lampard. The English boss had seen his back four-ship goals at the beginning of the campaign, however, their defensive woes now seem to have stabilised.

Clearly, not a coach to rest on his laurels, Frank wants to go shopping in the Bundesliga again. It appears he has an eye on Borussia Monchengladbach defender Matthias Ginter. Matthias has been compared to Real Madrid captain, Sergio Ramos, by Lothar Matthaus, who captained Germany to World Cup victory in 1990.

Antonio Rudiger may well move on to pastures new in winter, and Matthias could be available for as little as £30m to replace him, and provide options alongside Thiago Silva. The German centre-back has played over 110 games for Borussia Gladbach, helping them qualify for the UCL

As long as the Blues are still well-placed in the PL come to the winter window, then the signing of a warrior such as the 26-year-old defender could give them the push they need in the second half of the campaign. Frank Lampard has also signed defender Ben Chilwell, attacker Hakim Ziyech and shot-stopper Edouard Mendy.
