Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhuttl says Chelsea are stronger this season with Romelu Lukaku.
Saints go to Chelsea on Saturday.
Asked about the threat he poses Hasenhuttl's centre-halves, the boss responded: “It's not only about being a beast against him but also being clever.
“We have seen yesterday a very good example of how you can play against him. It is not possible to keep him out of the game for 90 minutes he will get a chance or two or whatever, but we must be there.
“He doesn't need a lot of chances to score and for sure this is the player Chelsea were missing in the past and makes them definitely stronger."
