Chelsea management excited by youth pair McEachran, Knott

Chelsea youth boss Dermot Drummy was delighted with his midfield pair in their FA Youth Cup win over Watford.

Drummy was pleased with Josh McEachran and Billy Knott.

"Billy has been probably the most consistent performer in the Youth Cup this season and he loves to play the game, to train, and he has a fantastic ethic towards football, josh is an absolute delight on the pitch but everyone worked their socks off," Drummy told chelseafc.com.

"We've got players like Billy, josh, George Saville and Nathaniel Chalobah, who want to play out and as a youth coach you want them to keep going. When I first started I used to panic but you realise they're in control and they see some wonderful moves and play some fantastic football, as they did tonight."
