And I think that's what...

Chelsea have done so well over the last five years.

I think as young players as well, you're going to have your ups and downs, but you need a manager that believes in you, that continues to have faith in what he's doing and why he's put you there.

I think that's what Frank has done so well with the likes of Tammy Abraham and Mount and Tamuri.

They've come in and haven't been overruled by the situation.

Yes, they're going to have their ups and downs, but they know they've got a manager who backs them all the way.

I think you're right there.

You know, it's the fact that, you know...

You get no time in the Premier League if you're not producing the results.

You'll be out the door.

But I think the one key thing that Chelsea have done so well is allowed the players to go out on loan, the young players who they think are good enough, to go out and experience that environment of being in first-team environments, feeling the pressure of competitive football.

And now they've come back.

And I think it's here we've got the likes of Sean Longstaff who went out

he had two loans successful loans and he's come back he came back a better player and you look at what he did last season so it can work you know when teams invest in their academies and try and give them the right pathway to their first team I think it's a way forward it lifts the academy as well 100% absolutely everyone then believes all of a sudden Chelsea's now a place that any young player would want to be because they all believe there's a pathway to the first teams

Yeah, I mean, you know, you look at the form, you think, you know, Liverpool, you know, should win.

But listen, these top, when you pick two top teams against you, especially the likes of Chelsea, who are doing so well with their youngsters, it's a tough game, you know.

And I know, you know, Jurgen will be going there knowing that they're going to have to play well to win there.

You know, you mentioned the game last year, you know, they were playing well then.

and they couldn't get the job done so it's going to be a tough game for them but for me you look at the likes of the way Liverpool have started to play obviously played Newcastle last week and that second half blew Newcastle apart so it's important it's an important game for Liverpool and you look at what Man City have done obviously

Struggle today, didn't they?
