The France international has expressed concern about his lack of minutes in recent weeks, but he has been urged to be patient by his manager
Frank Lampard has backed Olivier Giroud’s comments that he ‘doesn’t accept a bench role’ at Chelsea, but the Blues boss is aiming to convince the striker to stay at Stamford Bridge for the duration of the season.
Giroud recently expressed frustration while on international duty for France at his lack of minutes for Chelsea this season and said that he ‘will make a decision in January’ over his future.
