Chelsea's three-man defence was imperious last season as the Blues cantered to the Premier League title but it has been a different story this time around and that is one of the reasons they are currently languishing in fifth in the division.

David Luiz and Gary Cahill, who were hugely impressive last season, have lost their starting spots and in the case of the Englishman, it has cost him his national team place as well and his hopes of being in Russia during the summer hang by a thread.

The emergence of previously-prolific loanee Andres Christensen has been a positive - although he has struggled in the bigger games - but there is still a feeling that the Blues need more if they are to make a title challenge next season.

With that in mind, we asked Chelsea fans whether Newcastle key man Jamaal Lascelles would be a worthwhile signing in the summer transfer window.

The majority of Blues supporters - 62 per cent - do want their club to purchase the defender, despite him again being overlooked for England selection and remaining uncapped at senior level.
