Redknapp: Crucial goal can kickstart Batshuayi Chelsea career

Former Tottenham star Jamie Redknapp feels Michy Batshuayi can build on his goal for Chelsea last night.

The striker secured the Premier League title for Chelsea with his winner at West Brom.

"When he first came on he kept giving the ball away and giving away fouls. But Frank [Lampard] said it could be his night," Redknapp told Sky Sports.

"It hasn't worked out for him. £30million I think but he came on and everything he did went wrong.

"He kept giving away silly fouls and I was thinking this is not your night. It just shows you what football's like and how football can turn around for you, and now this might just be the making of him. It might just be what he needs."
