Having to focus on youth has turned out far better than many thought for the Blues, with the former midfielder feeling only minor tweaks are required
Frank Lampard's young Chelsea squad only need one or two 'specific' signings to take them to the next level, according to former Blues midfielder Gus Poyet.
A two-window transfer embargo has seen the Blues turn to their vast pool of youth products, with Tammy Abraham, Mason Mount and Fikayo Tomori, in particular, catching the eye as academy graduates strive to prove their worth in the Premier League.
Abraham currently tops the charts for goals scored this season, level with Manchester City's Sergio Aguero, while Mount's performances and the recent return of exciting winger Callum Hudson-Odoi have gone some way to easing the burden of losing Eden Hazard to Real Madrid.
