Chelsea boss Frank Lampard feels Ross Barkley is starting to live up to his potential.

The England midfielder grabbed a fine goal and gave the kind of all-round performance Lampard and England boss Gareth Southgate need to see more often if he is to re-establish himself as a first choice for club and country.

Lampard said: “All the players have been out at times but Ross had a longer time out.

“Some of that was down to injury, and a niggling one which kept him out for the best part of six weeks.

“Some of that earlier in the season Ross would probably have to look at himself and say he could have been doing better.

“But Ross has taken that on in the most positive way possible. He has worked hard, he's got his nose in the team.

"He does need confidence as a player. To try and play him and give him more minutes is always going to help with his confidence. And if he plays like he did against Liverpool recently and Tottenham, then he's a big player for this club."
