“Having played with Eden and seen him come to the club at a relatively young age, [that is] similar to Christian,” Lampard said earlier this season.
“We saw the development of Eden but he had a special talent straight away of being able to receive a ball and have great balance and go past players so well.
“I think Christian is possibly more direct in his style sometimes, in terms of how he goes past players and runs off the ball, which I like.
“Eden would come and get the ball and take it past players a lot. With Christian, sometimes I think he has the ability to break the line and run forward, which is a really great trait in the modern game.”
