Full Chelsea squad revealed for Wolves clash amid Mason Mount hope and Aubameyang wildcard

Frank Lampard has numerous selection headaches against Wolves as he hopes to get off to a winning start as Chelsea caretaker manager. With plenty of players now back from injury, the 44-year-old has a large pool to choose from meaning that some may be left at home.

Two Blues stars who struggled for game time under Graham Potter were Mason Mount and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The duo both face an increasingly uncertain future at the club, with both set to leave for free at the end of next season.

However, under Lampard, Mount and Aubameyang could be given a new lease of life which makes the Chelsea boss' team selection all the more interesting. Speaking to the press ahead of the Wolves game, the former England international explained how he'll decide who starts and who doesn't.

Lampard said: "I've been thinking about it a lot this morning, speaking to people who are going to be helping me to do this job so I have my idea about where I want to go. I watched the team, so credit to Bruno who took the team, credit to Graham Potter who I don't know that well but everything I see about him, he's a good man and a very good coach and sometimes for whatever reason things don't align, don't work, whatever, I've been in that situation personally.

"There's nothing that I will do that will look backwards other than with a view to how we move forward. I obviously have my own ideas," he added, before sending a message to the fans. "I'm very thankful for the ones that are delighted. If there are some that are not delighted they can know that I will do my utmost to get the team to where I want it to be and give them a team that they're proud of.

"I don't think I need, I don't want this to sound too casual, but I don't think I need to speak too much about my relationship with Chelsea fans. I played here for 13 years, I coached here, I've had a lot of incredible moments and some difficult moments because that's football.

"From the moment I joined this club, many years ago, I can't remember the year almost, they've been a huge support to me and I'm forever thankful for that. If I can be here, if I can help this club and we can come together and we can feel those days at Stamford Bridge and nights at Stamford Bridge and feel an energy in this period of the season - that's what I'm here to try and do."
