• Manager not getting carried away with promising performances•
Chelsea face tough test against Group H leadersFrank Lampard believes Chelsea are a long way from matching the long-term success of Ajax’s academy and has said that he is not getting carried away with his young side’s performances this season.
Ajax have a proud tradition of producing homegrown talents and the Dutch champions came within a whisker of reaching last season’s
Champions League final, only to lose to
Tottenham Hotspur in the last four. However Erik ten Hag’s side have bounced back after selling Frenkie de Jong and Matthijs de Ligt in the summer and sit top of Group H before hosting Chelsea this evening.
