The pair were named in the starting team by Andy Myers and more than played their part in a dominant performance against Liverpool in Premier League 2. Rudiger contributed to a second consecutive clean sheet for the youngsters, while Batshuayi's goals either side of half-time helped us on the way to victory. Tino Anjorin added a third late on to cap a good night's work, with Frank Lampard in the stands to see the young Blues record an impressive win. https://i.imgur.com/Bkuoqx5.jpg

Frank Lampard was in the stands to watch the first development squad home game of the season Rudiger and Batshuayi were among the starters for the Blues on a balmy summer evening in west London, with the German making his first appearance in a Chelsea shirt since limping off against Manchester United in late April. He started alongside skipper Marc Guehi in central defence, with Tariq Lamptey and Ian Maatsen operating at full-back. Jamie Cumming returned between the sticks, while Batshuayi lined up in attack supported by Tariq Uwakwe, Anjorin and Juan Castillo. In central midfield, Billy Gilmour partnered Clinton Mola as Myers's men looked to make it three wins from three at the start of the new season. It was a positive start from the hosts, with Castillo inches away from providing a tap-in for Batshuayi inside the opening minute and Morgan Boyes clearing the danger with a last-ditch effort as Castillo searched for Anjorin with a clever clipped pass. Our endeavours down the wings in particular were reaping rewards and Lamptey went closest in the opening half hour, jinking into the box before working the ball back onto his favoured right foot. His angled strike was placed promisingly towards the bottom corner but Reds keeper Caoimhin Kelleher made a smart save down low to the right. The first period was proving reminiscent of some recent outings from the senior men’s team, with plenty of opportunities carved out but a finishing touch in front of goal lacking. Gilmour stung the palms of Kelleher with a fierce effort from distance after 25 minutes, before Anjorin then Gilmour fired straight at the keeper. https://i.imgur.com/FZzhdgb.jpg

Toni Rudiger played 90 minutes for the young Blues With half-time looming, the Blues finally broke the deadlock to take a deserved lead into the break. Rudiger supplied the long pass over the top for Batshuayi, who was clattered by Kelleher as he trapped the ball under his control, though the striker quickly returned to his feet before nonchalantly clipping his finish into the unguarded goal. The 25-year-old could have notched a second before the interval as Castillo again supplied a teasing delivery from the left but he failed to keep his effort on target. Yet he was soon celebrating again two minutes into the second half after finishing off a lovely attacking move down the left. From Maatsen to Castillo and then into Anjorin, the Blues moved the ball purposefully before Batshuayi was teed up to rifle the ball high into the roof of the net to make it 2-0. Liverpool failed to provide a serious threat to Cumming's goal for most of the evening and their busier players remained in defence and in goal. Irish stopper Kelleher denied Batshuayi a hat-trick with an impressive close-range stop, using his feet to keep out the striker's effort following Maatsen's low cross. On the rebound, Anjorin drove a left-footed shot against the top of the crossbar. https://i.imgur.com/vm5SQ7x.jpg

Billy Gilmour on the ball for the Blues Rudiger then had Kelleher scrambling across his goal-line after 70 minutes as our big defender rose highest in the box but couldn't hit the target with his header, while Uwakwe rattled the post with a strike from a narrow angle. Anjorin rounded off the scoring with a deserved goal of his own with 15 minutes remaining, the 17-year-old collecting the ball from Batshuayi before cutting inside the defender and finishing calmly into the corner of the net. https://i.imgur.com/8p52acN.jpg

Anjorin slots in our third The result sees Myers's side move up to second in the early PL2 standings, with a trip to Manchester City up next on Friday evening. Our next outing at the Bridge is on Friday 13 September against Brighton and tickets for that game are available to purchase now, priced once again at ￡5 for adults and free for concessions. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- https://www.chelseafc.com/en/news/2019/08/20/ pl2-reaction--myers-and-guehi-on-building-momentum-and-taking-ch PL2 reaction: Myers and Guehi on building momentum and taking chances 20 Aug 2019 After watching his side record an impressive victory at Stamford Bridge in Premier League 2, development squad head coach Andy Myers praised the attitude, application and fitness levels of his players as the young Blues made it three wins from three at the start of the new season. https://i.imgur.com/S7zcMvc.jpg

Antonio Rudiger stepped up his return to match fitness with 90 minutes against Liverpool, while Michy Batshuayi's brace and a third from Tino Anjorin helped the seal the points. After the game, Myers claimed a fast start was important to setting the tone and tempo, with the young Blues capitalising on a 90th-minute winner last time out away at Derby. 'I was very pleased with our start because we just picked up from where we left off against Derby,' he said. 'Our attitude was spot-on, even from the senior players involved, and it was nice to come away with the result. It's important for us to keep that momentum going and move on to the next game with the same high standards.' Defender Marc Guehi captained the team at centre-back alongside Rudiger and produced an impressive performance in contributing to a second consecutive clean sheet. The 19-year-old pointed to our second goal, which arrived minutes after the half-time break, as a particularly significant moment in the contest. 'It was a really good performance against a tough Liverpool side. We coped well and gelled as a team so it was good to get the three points,' he reflected afterwards. 'The second goal was important for us because it came very early on after half-time and it just calmed the game down because we knew they were going to come out fast and sharp.' https://i.imgur.com/O4czE2v.jpg

Guehi helped us to a clean sheet at the Bridge against Liverpool Myers was also pleased with our superior fitness levels, which helped us control the contest and restrict the Reds to a very limited number of sights at goal. 'The boys have shown in the three games we've been involved in so far this season that their fitness levels are really high so that's a credit to the strength and conditioning guys who work with us but also to the players themselves because they do apply themselves well in training every day,' continued Myers. 'In the first half, we had a lot of chances and didn't really get the rewards. You're always thinking at 1-0 that the game can still go either way so we did mention at half-time that we needed to put those chances away. The boys did that in the second half and could even have had a few more.' The development squad are back in action on Friday night away in Manchester as we take on City at the Academy Stadium. Our next outing at the Bridge is on Friday 13 September against Brighton and tickets for that game are available to purchase now, priced once again at ￡5 for adults and free for concessions.
