Mauricio Pochettino has provided his assessment on the performance of\u00a0 Lesley Ugochukwu who made his full Premier League debut for Chelsea in their barren draw with Bournemouth on Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n

Before the encounter with the Cherries, the talented midfielder had made two Premier League appearances, both of which were as a substitute.<\/p>\n

With injuries to Mois\u00e9s Caicedo and Rom\u00e9o Lavia, a golden opportunity presented itself for the France youth international to make his first\u00a0 Premier League start at the Vitality Stadium.<\/p>\n
\nIn his post-match reactions, Pochettino gave a positive assessment of the performance of the Super Eagles-eligible midfielder.<\/p>\n

“That is one of the positive things, a first start for him,’. ‘He is really young and to compete at this level [the Premier League] is always difficult. But I think his performance was good” he told Chelsea’s official website<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Ugochukwu made his first Premier League appearance for Chelsea against Liverpool and got his first start in the game against AFC Wimbledon in the Carabao Cup.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n He has tasted just one league victory since he arrived at Stamford Bridge which was the Blues’ 3-0 win over Luton Town.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The former Rennes midfielder will be hoping for better fortune when Chelsea host Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge on September 24.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Copyright ANS<\/strong><\/p>\n
