Chelsea midfielder Gilmour wins major praise from Scotland teammate McGregor

Chelsea midfielder Billy Gilmour has earned high praise from Scotland teammate Callum McGregor.

Gilmour, who is on loan at Norwich City, lined up in central midfield alongside McGregor for Scotland's win over Austria on Tuesday.

Speaking before the game, Celtic captain McGregor said of his teammate: "He is obviously technically very, very good.

"He sees the pictures, he sees them early. Everything he does is so simple, but it looks great.

"And that's the sign of a good midfielder; he can make difficult things look easy."
