Chelsea will close one of the worst seasons in its history with a 12th place finish in the Premier League a day from the end. Before, now, he was playing a pending match at Old Trafford against Manchester United where only prestige was at stake, after all.
However, the match will go down in history as Chelsea contested it with the youngest starting line-up in its Premier League history. The lineup of Frank Lampard, interim coach until the end of the season, has an average of 23 years and 238 days.

});
In addition, nine of the eleven players selected by Lampard were under the age of 24. Only two teams, Bournemouth and Aston Villa, have surpassed this because they played a game with ten players under that age.
In particular, this is Lampard’s eleven at Old Trafford: Kepa (28 years old); Azpilicueta (33), Chalobah (23), Wesley Fofana (22), Lewis Hall (18); Chukwuemeka (19), Enzo Fernandez (22), Gallagher (23); Madueke (21), Havertz (23) and Mudryk (22).
