Billy Gilmour has spoken about the advice that he received from Frank Lampard before making his Chelsea debut.

The 18-year-old got his chance to shine with the senior side against Sheffield United in August. He came off the bench in the 2-2 draw.

Gilmour has now revealed the words he exchanged with boss Lampard before the match.

"The night before, the gaffer kept asking if my family were coming down and saying make sure they come," the Scotland U21 international told reporters.

"We were 2-0 up and I'm thinking 'this could be good', but it was 2-1 when I came on.

"That shows you how much trust he has in the younger players to put you on in such a tight game.

"It finished 2-2, which wasn't the result I hoped for, but it made my dream come true of playing in the Premier League."
