UCL: He's the best player, very smart - Aluko hails Chelsea star after 3-0 win over AC Milan
Former Chelsea striker Eniola Aluko has hailed Chelsea right-back Reece James after the Blues' 3-0 win over AC Milan in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
Chelsea entered the match with just one point from two matches, having been beaten at Dinamo Zagreb and drawn 1-1 with Salzburg.
But the Blues, under Graham Potter, seem to be regaining momentum with victory at Crystal Palace this weekend and now at AC Milan.
It was the Blues' first European win under Potter, as goals from James, Wesley Fofana and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang saw the Blues outclass the Italians.
Eniola, a former England star, said on BT Sports: "Reece James is so smart with his aim.
"He waits for the overlap to happen and the shot is great. It's such a smart finish. He was the best player on the pitch in the second half."
