Josh Acheampong hailed by Chelsea fans for Shamrock Rovers display
Although Guiu was deservedly in the spotlight thanks to his hat-trick, numerouౠs Chelsea youngsters shone on the night.

Another said: “I don’t even kno𒁃w who’s more better between Acheampong and TAA, this boy is ꦡgood man.”
One supporter backed him to become a regular starter, saying: “We gotta get Jo🦩sh Acheampong into the PL starting 11 asap man.”
Another wrote: “I may have been wrong in my initial assessment that Josh Acheampong would need a year or two to be readyౠ. The boy is ready now, he’s a special talent.”
And ꦏone said: “Don’t think I’ve ever seಞen a profile like Acheampong’s… 6’3 full back with insane ball carrying and 1v1 defending ability, such a unicorn.”
