Alan Shearer, a former Newcastle United attacker, has given his verdict on Liam Delap, insisting that the Chelsea summer signing is a little rough around the edges.
Chelsea signed Delap from Ipswich Town for 30m this summer.
The 22-year-old netted his first goal for the Premier League west London club in their FIFA Club World Cup 3-0 victory against ES Tunis on Wednesday.
Speaking about Delap on The Rest Is Football, Shearer said: Once you go to a new club, the sooner you can get a goal, the better.
I think Delap can be really pleased with the way hes started his Chelsea career.
