# Lampard praises Tomori, Mount and Abraham following St Patrick’s win

Chelsea manager Frank Lampard has heaped praise on Fikayo Tomori, Tammy Abraham and Mason Mount following the club’s 4-0 win over St Patrick’s on Saturday.

The Blues picked up their first win of pre-season as they eased past the Irish outfit, following on from their 1-1 draw with Bohemians on Wednesday.

Mount and Emerson scored the goals for Chelsea as Lampard’s side went into the break 2-0 up, before Olivier Giroud found the back of the net twice in the second-half to round off the scoring.

[Speaking to Sky Sports](https://www.skysports.com/app/transfer-centre) after the game, Lampard said this:

> A lot has been made of the younger players we have here and, of course, they need to have the door open and know they can impress, like a lot of them did today.

> You could see from the first moments that Mason \[Mount\] and Tammy \[Abraham\] and \[Fikayo\] Tomori were really at it and that’s what we want, we need to have competition within the squad.

> We want to see these players and now it down to themselves to show they deserve a place in the team.

Chelsea are now set to face Barcelona in a friendly on Tuesday as the level of opposition in pre-season begins to increase.
