Chelsea hero Pat Nevin has been impressed by Carney Chukwuemeka.

The former Aston Villa prospect has broken into the Blues first team in recent weeks.

Nevin wrote for chelseafc.com: "His appearances have looked assured and most Chelsea fans who have watched his cameos now know that he is pushing very hard for a start, maybe even before the month is out.

"One of the first things I look at when I see a new, but particularly a young player come on, is how is team-mates work with him. Do they trust him, do they give him the ball in tight areas, do they make runs believing he has the quality to find them. Well, the answers were all yes, within seconds each time he has come on.

"The first stand out is that he has stunning pace driving from midfield, but the other qualities have quickly revealed themselves and I can't wait for him to get even more game time.

"It is seriously tough to muscle your way into the Chelsea men's first team, maybe especially in that midfield attacking area, but if you add the pace and power that Broja brings, then the young players breaking through could have a huge effect from here on in."
