Chelsea boss, Frank Lampard, has said Edouard Mendy deserved his chance against Nottingham Forest.
Mendy conceded twice for the 2-2 draw.
Lampard said, “We’ve got two good goalkeepers. Edou has been training well and Kepa has been playing really well. In this situation we’re in, to give Edou a game today was no problem. It’s not for me to say, ‘one level is here and one level is there’. He’s a goalkeeper we trust so he started.
“The long loopy throw is a difficult one to defend against. We’ve seen them score goals in games where it has been important for them and you know it’s coming.
“They’re a bigger team than us, which is just a natural thing. The threat of set-pieces, counter-attacks and direct play were the biggest threats and the players knew that.”
