The former defender believes an embargo preventing the club from bolstering their ranks has proved beneficial to Frank Lampard and a new-look side
Chelsea’s transfer ban has allowed them to discover talent “they probably didn’t know they had six months ago”, says Glen Johnson, with Frank Lampard finding benefits in a tough situation.
The Blues boss arrived at Stamford Bridge over the summer aware that he would be working under a two-window embargo.
With Christian Pulisic the only fresh face welcomed into the fold, with a deal agreed for the United States international in January, Lampard was forced to look in-house for inspiration.
