Chelsea defender, Kurt Zouma has hailed Billy Gilmour for his maturity and confidence vs Liverpool in their recent FA Cup clash at Stamford Bridge.
Zouma believes the youngster has a very bright future ahead of him if he persists on his present trajectory.
According to him, Gilmour is calm and very clever on the ball and he just has to keep working hard to maintain his form.
He added that the teenager is also quality in training and he keeps the ball well.
His words, “Unbelievable performance, very mature in his game, and calm and clever as well, with the ball and without the ball,”
“He was fantastic, like he is training. He is training very good. He is very confident and he can keep the ball, he is running around and pressing the guys.
“He has a bright future ahead of him, he just needs to keep working hard.”
On the game, “Everybody was fighting a lot for every ball, everyone running around and defending and attacking. It was a good game to watch I think and we did a very good game,”
“Any clean sheet is good but especially against Liverpool. We know they have great players up front, they have a great team, and we did very well defensively and it is not just about defenders, all of us as a team played very well defensively, and offensively. We could have scored more.
“We did a good game but we need to stay focused because there are games when we can play good, and others when we are so-so. Maybe players are a bit tired, I don’t know, maybe we are not focused enough.
“Against Liverpool, this is the mentality we need to keep every game. We have a very important game on Sunday [against Everton], we need to get the win at home and move on from there.”
