Chelsea are in action tonight against Leicester, just a couple of days after their last game, where they squeezed past Fulham 1-0.
Frank Lampard has changed his team since then, and there are starts for Callum Hudson-Odoi and Kai Havertz. The manager was asked about why he was choosing to give them a chance, and while rotation must come into it, he didn’t hesitate to praise their qualities.
He said they’d both impressed in training, and CHO had particularly done well in the starts he had managed to make recently.
