Chelsea U21 boss Adi Viveash was delighted to see three of his young players make their Premier League debuts late in the season.
Academy graduates as Fikayo Tomori, Tammy Abraham and Jake Clarke-Salter were all handed minutes by Guus Hiddink.
"To get three debuts and for Tammy to play an hour as a substitute across two games is a big plus of our whole season," Viveash told chelseafc.com.
"At the end of the day, it is the biggest thing that the players are looking to achieve and it was a nice way for the season to finish with Tammy and Fikayo on the field against Leicester at the Bridge. All the players and staff were proud to see that because it represents the work of our programme.'
