Former Chelsea midfielder Joe Cole has likened Fikayo Tomori to retired France international William Gallas.
Tomori has become one of the important players in Frank Lampard's side, going the distance in their last six matches in the Premier League and has played every minute in the Champions League.
''He reminds me a lot of a young [William] Gallas," Joe Cole told BT Sports.
"We talk about his development, for me, it has been absolutely perfect.
"He had had his whole youth career in the academy, then his first six months at Derby with Frank and then Ashley Cole has come in to play next to him for six months.''

The former England U21 international, who is being
courted by the Nigerian Federation to play for the Super Eagles, was
rewarded with an invitation to the Three Lions in October on the back of
his brilliant form for Chelsea.
