'What does Michy have to do?!' - Chelsea fans confused over omission of one player vs Norwich

Frank Lampard has named his third Premier League team as head coach of Chelsea.

The Blues have travelled to East Anglia to take on newly promoted Norwich City, with Lampard in search of his first three points as Chelsea boss.

The former midfielder has had a difficult start to life in the hot seat at Stamford Bridge. The season started with a 4-0 defeat against Manchester United before a 1-1 draw with Leicester City, despite going ahead in the gamem last weekend left the club still on the search for the first win of the season.

Norwich will be going into the game on a high after a Teemu Pukki hat trick saw them brush aside Newcastle United with a 3-1 win in their last outing.

In a blow to Chelsea, influential midfielder N'Golo Kante has missed out due to injury, with matteo Kovacic coming in in his place.

Tammy Abraham has also been chosen in the lone striker role ahead of competition from Olivier Giroud and Michy Batshuayi. The latter impressed for the U23s in the week, where he scored a brace, and has been named on the bench for the encounter.

Upon the announcement of the latest Chelsea team, Blues fans have taken to social media to give their thoughts at Lampard's latest selection, where some can't believe that Batshuayi has been overlooked again.

Take a look at a selection of the tweets below.

Should Batshuayi want to prove the Chelsea fans right, he will have to do so from the bench.
