Mauricio Pochettino claimed that 'David Beckham is shaking' after Raheem Sterling scored a stunning free-kick against Preston.
The England international stepped up and whipped a fierce effort into the top corner of the FA Cup tie on Saturday night to help ensure the Blues' 4-0 victory at home.
It was Sterling's second free-kick of the season, after already scoring a similar effort in their 4-1 Premier League defeat to Newcastle back in November.
It's clear that the 29-year-old's efforts have not gone unnoticed, particularly with boss Pochettino who was quick to praise the forward's progress.
