"I got called in for training so I had some suspicions but at first I thought I’d be on the bench," Tino Anjorin told Chelseafc.com.
"When we put the team out in training, he [Lampard] said “Tino, left wing” and that’s when I was like 'am I starting?' After that, Frank came up to me and asked if I was excited for my debut!
"It was different and it took me a while to get used to the position,’ he said of playing wide on the left. ‘I thought on the ball I did well and off the ball, I could have been a bit better but obviously, that’s just me having not played there very often. It’s a performance I can definitely improve on."
The teenager had a good performance against Krasnodar in the 1-1 draw. Lampard was happy with his player's performance after the game as he praised Anjorin for stepping up to the plate.
It was good to see the youngster being given a start in the Champions League just a few months after he signed a long-term contract with the Blues. We hope to see him play for us again this season.
