Derby County boss Frank Lampard is delighted for Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek over his England success.

Lampard wrote for BBC Sport: "Ruben is someone I know really well from when he was coming through the youth ranks at Chelsea. He is 22 now, but he probably came on to my radar when he was 15 because he was so highly spoken of.

"He would occasionally come and train with us in the first team from the age of 16, because he was that advanced.

"Straight away he made an impression because of his physical attributes, but he knew how to play too - he had great ability and even then he could drift past people on the ball.

"He does that even better now, with his pace and power when he is running at you, which makes him different from a lot of modern-day midfield players - and puts a fear into the opposition that they do not usually have.

"That is what he will bring to England's midfield against Panama, and his versatility makes him even more unique."
