A selection of Chelsea fans heaped praise on Billy Gilmour following his impressive showing for Scotland against England at the European Championships.

The young Blues midfielder made his full debut for the national team last night and showed his quality from the centre of the park.

The 20-year-old completed 40 of his 44 passes attempted while making two tackles and eight ball recoveries, more than any other player.

Gilmour has not nailed down a starting role with the Blues due to the fierce competition from N’Golo Kante, Jorginho and Mateo Kovacic.

However, he is regarded highly by the club’s hierarchy, and the supporters were full of praise for him after his solid midfield performance.

Twitter reactions:

Billy Gilmour was the best DM on the pitch today, he deserves praise.
