KALOU PRAISES MCEACHRAN
Salomon Kalou has tipped Josh McEachran to become a Chelsea great in the future. McEachran, aged just 17, arrived on the world stage last night by bossing Chelsea's midfield in the Champions League against MSK Zilina. Playing largely in holding midfield, a position not entirely familiar to him, he completed more passes than anyone on the pitch in a performance that some even compared to the great Claude Makelele.
Salomon Kalou said of the youngster: “He is very good. He played a different position (against Zilina), and he showed he still had the skill and experience.
“Playing with him and training we enjoy his quality and skill, and I think there is still a lot to see from him. He can be one of those great, great players that every team wants to have. He has the quality and the ability to do it.”
