The youngster has been terrific all season as he’s done on Chelsea shirt countless times this season. Though he was not among the goal scorers against Burnley more like Jorginho and youth mate Callum Hudson-Odoi.
Much will be expected from him even as he enjoys the confidence (real backing) of his manager Lampard, while being the second in command behind Tottenham’s Harry Kane in the Gareth Southgate England set-up.
He’s done Chelsea pretty well more as we take into consideration into the three memorable games he’s proven he’s the right man to lead Chelsea’s attack.
CHELSEA 2-1 FC BARCELONA (PRE-SEASON)
Abraham was outstanding here when they met Spanish side FC Barcelona not minding the fitness level of the players involved in this game at that time. He got one of the goals with Barkley scoring the other one for Chelsea in the contest.
The way in which Tammy rounded-up the goalkeeper with his expert touch of the ball via the close control dribbling was exemplary before slotting into the net to his side’s advantage.
This is more like his native and Arsenal legendary player Nwankwo Kanu style of dribbling the goalkeeper as the Blues clinched the win (2-1) ahead of the current season.
WOLVERHAMPTON WANDERERS 2-5 CHELSEA
While the Blues side started the season on a patchy note, the same also happened to Tammy as he fired blank in the first few games of the season.
However, as his manager continued to feature the player with encouragement and support on the pitch owing to his obvious talent the forward eventually came alive.
He bagged a goal against Norwich City. This was alongside the impressive Mason Mount.
He’s on the score’s chart thus bagging an impressive hat-trick against the Wolves side who are known for their top-notch outings against the Big sides. He was unplayable more as he got a goal against Watford.
ARSENAL 1-2 CHELSEA (CHRISTMAS EVE)
The center forward may have vowed to score against Arsenal after watching his opposite figure Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang get the better of the Chelsea defence in the early stages of the game.
With a tactical reversion made by the imperious manager Frank Lampard, the Blues hauled their way back in the game through game changer and substitute Jorginho who profited from an error from Arsenal Bernd Leno to make it 1-1.
This set the tone as Abraham led the Chelsea counter-attack alongside Willian in transition before finishing it up at the Arsenal end thus displacing top defender Shkodran Mustafi in the Arsenal goal.
It was a big moment as the Blues turned around their fortune with a twinkle of an eye despite been 1-0 down in the tie in the early exchanges.
