Chelsea goalkeeper Rob Green is full of praise for their young No1 Kepa Arrizabalaga.

Signed as a back-up to Kepa and Willy Caballero last summer, Green has played his part in imparting his vast wealth of goalkeeping knowledge to his team-mates.

"Kepa for his first season in the Premier League has had a fantastic season, and one that he will get stronger off the back of," Green told chelseafc.com.

"The demands. He's a young guy. The amount of football he has played, all of a sudden he has gone into a season where he has played probably 50 games, more than 50 games. And it's not just the games themselves, he's going away for internationals, he's travelling all round Europe to play these games.

"And the intensity of the games, and the spotlight of the games is far greater. He has managed that and maintained his performance throughout. His talent was there - it doesn't take an expert to see that. But I think what don't you realise when you're out of it is the demands it has on someone who is still a young lad."
