Chelsea’s interim manager, Frank Lampard has told Lewis Hall to ‘trust how good he is’, insisting that the 18-year-old will get chances to impress for Chelsea in the remaining matches of the season.
The youngster has made seven senior appearances for the Blues this season but has not played a single game since January.
Operating from the left-back, the teenager was part of England’s initial squad for their Under-20 World Cup campaign which begins later this month before Chelsea withdrew him from the tournament due to injuries to Ben Chilwell and Marc Cucurella.
Addressing his pre-match press conference ahead of their match against Nottingham Forest this weekend, Lampard said, “Lewis has a chance…
“I’ve been really impressed with his training – he’s a very good player, a really talented player.
“I think, if anything, the one thing he needs is to come out of himself that bit more because he should really trust how good he is and feel at home with the group. I think he does feel that.”
