Published on September 15, 2019, Chelsea's youngsters have been making waves in the Premier League, impressing fans and critics alike.
With a two-year transfer ban in place, Frank Lampard has been forced to put his faith in the club's academy graduates, and it's paying off.
Chelsea's 5-2 win over Wolves on September 14, 2019, saw Tammy Abraham score a hat-trick, while Mason Mount and Fikayo Tomori also found the back of the net.
The trio's heroics broke a 27-year Premier League record, as they became the first trio aged 21 or under to score in an English top-flight season since Graham Stuart, Eddie Newton, and Neil Shipperley in 1992.
Abraham's seven goals have been instrumental in Chelsea's success, with Mount and Tomori also chipping in with three and one goal respectively.
The club's new manager, Frank Lampard, will be hoping to build a strong core around the youngsters, with Callum Hudson-Odoi and Reece James waiting in the wings to impress.
As the west London side continues to navigate the challenges of the transfer ban, Lampard's faith in the academy graduates is a welcome boost.
