Chelsea youth coach Joe Cole has sung the praises of Champions League hero Reece James.

The 19-year-old full-back completed an incredible Chelsea comeback against Ajax at Stamford Bridge by scoring the equaliser for 4-4.

With the Dutch side down to nine men, James hammered home an equaliser after a pile up in the box.

Cole offered some insight, having trained with James as a Blue.

He said: "When I was playing in America, I came around to train with the kids.

We were having shooting session and the kids' shooting was erratic, but James was on the money, on the money, whipping crosses, it was like watching Beckham."
