Former Chelsea manager Glenn Hoddle has urged Mauricio Sarri to have more faith in Ruben Loftus-Cheek.
The midfielder, who was substituted on 83 minutes, produced an impressive performance as the Blues earned a valuable draw in the Europa League semi-final first leg at Eintracht Frankfurt.
Chelsea target Luka Jovic opened the scoring for the hosts before Pedro fired into the bottom corner on 26 minutes. However, Hoddle believes Loftus-Cheek was the star of the show at the Commerzbank Arena.
