Callum Hudson-Odoi scouting report: Chelsea winger shows 'value' as former Spurs man ruins day

A weekend without Chelsea's first team following the postponement of the Stamford Bridge clash with Liverpool is by no means a weekend without Chelsea representation. The Blues' under-18 and under-21 sides took to the field on Saturday, with the former falling to defeat against Norwich while the latter saw a 3-1 lead turn into a 3-3 draw against the Eagles.

However, the Blues have a vast selection of players on their books, including 22 players making up this season's loan army. Callum Hudson-Odoi was one of those as he started for Bayer Leverkusen against Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga.

Ahead of the game, head coach Gerardo Seoane highlighted Hudson-Odoi's versatility as very useful to his side, and it proved as such against Bremen. He said: "Tactics are always dependent on the opponent and the game. Hudson-Odoi helps us with his technique and agility, also that he can change his position during the game. That is very valuable for us as a team."
