Chelsea fans – strap yourselves in. This picture of our academy graduates stepping out onto the Cobham training pitches together will warm your heart.
We’ve waited for this for years. Strong youth involvement in the first-team. Our most promising young prospects finally getting the opportunities which they have been deserving of for years.
We are finally in a position to reap the rewards under the stewardship of Frank Lampard, who has shown an unparalleled amount of faith in his youngsters so soon into his tenure.
That cannot be better summed up than with this photo of Reece James, Callum Hudson-Odoi, Tammy Abraham and Mason Mount stepping out for pre-Champions League training.
We have two players who have already benefited from Lampard’s faith in his younger players, and two more that will benefit greatly from it in the months that lie ahead.
