CHELSEA V ARSENAL

Kick-off: 7.45 pm, Sky Sports Ref: Jon Moss

THOMAS TUCHEL says Chelsea have not given up on £97.5m Romelu Lukaku but warned he must get his state of mind right to save his Stamford Bridge career.

Lukaku has not started a league game for Chelsea since February and his last goal for the club came in the FA Cup at Middlesbrough more than a month ago.

Even when given his chance off the bench, the striker has failed to make his mark, missing two clear chances in the Champions League exit to Real Madrid, then hitting the post from point-blank range in Sunday's FA Cup semi-final win over Crystal Palace.
