Michy Batshuayi will stay at Chelsea and fight for a place in Frank Lampard's starting XI, despite being ignored by the new Blues boss so far this season.
Batshuayi is yet to make a single appearance in Chelsea's opening three games, but is reportedly determined to change Lampard's mind as the Blues continue to struggle for goals.
He has been linked with a permanent move away from the club as the European transfer deadline edges closer, but the Evening Standard has reported that he has decided to stay put, though he will reconsider his future in January.

To me it seems like it would not be a good idea to sell him especially with a ban. We need all the options we have imo. I rate Tammy, but i don't want to go into the season with only him and Giroud available. Batshuayi at least has years of top flight football under his belt

Right now I respect Tammy but he is not proving him self on the pitch as a genuine striker yet. Giroud us better to me but he lacks speed so I would give mitchy a chance remember he scored some real important goals for us in the past.
