Rio Ferdinand believes Chelsea have finally realised the potential of their youth system after a string of the Blues academy graduates helped destroy Juventus.
In Trevoh Chalobah, Reece James and Callum Hudson-Odoi, three of Chelsea's goal scorers in a 4-0 win over the Italian giants in the Champions League were from the Blues academy.
Another in Ruben Loftus-Cheek even set up Hudson-Odoi's effort with fancy footwork inside the box to cap an extraordinary evening for the European champions, with Timo Werner scoring a fourth goal in stoppage time.
Ferdinand believes that after years of wasting money on the project, Chelsea have finally found a winning formula, that was kickstarted by previous boss Frank Lampard and continued on by current manager Thomas Tuchel.
