Callum Hudson-Odoi can extract Arsenal revenge with Ruben Loftus-Cheek trick at Chelsea

Unfortunately for Callum Hudson-Odoi, his Champions League season is over. Six matches, one goal and some nice moments - very Hudson-Odoi-y really.

The 21-year-looked sharp for a team that is blunt, he was dynamic and direct, he played, which is a bonus. His 468 minutes is nearly as many as he achieved in the two previous seasons of European football at Chelsea put together. This season's minutes make up for nearly one third of his total Champions League game time despite making his debut three years ago.

Never had he played in all six group matches before, never had he started six games in the tournament in a row. It's disappointing to crash out, but if we file this in the Ruben Loftus-Cheek of loans rather than the Billy Gilmour's, then just playing is all that matters.
