Chelsea beat Luton 3-1 in the FA Cup today, and while Tammy Abraham took most of the praise for his hattrick, there was plenty of attention on young Billy Gilmour too, making a rare start in midfield.
Asked whether performances like that would earn him a shot in the first team, Lampard admitted it would be “very difficult” to keep ignoring the Scot if he keeps playing like this.
We’re desperate to see that – we’ve had enough Jorginho and Kovacic for a lifetime in recent weeks. What more does Billy have to do?
