Chelsea youngster Harvey Vale: I'm learning from senior players | OneFootball

Chelsea youngster Harvey Vale says senior players are always available for advice.

Vale has enjoyed first team football this season.

He told chelseafc.com: "If you speak with each of them, you can take different bits from each of their games because they all play it so differently and at different speeds and tempos, so I feel like it's good for me. To learn from them I can try to add the best bits from each of their games into mine.

"I have played a fair few positions in my time and that benefits me as a footballer. I'm happy if it helps the team for me to show I have that sort of the tactical understanding. That will help me in my career no matter where or who I play for.

"Playing left-back at an early age helped my understanding of the game and different roles. Now I'm playing on the wing with a left-back behind me I understand what he's thinking and we have a good relationship. I can fill in if he goes forward. Also, if you've played there and you are taking on a left-back, you sort of know what they're thinking and what they see. You can do the counter of that whatever they are thinking so 100 per cent that helps."

Vale also said: "It's always nice coming over from the Academy as a group. It can be scary if you come by yourself. I was speaking to one of the other boys with me and he said if he came over by himself, he wouldn't know where to go, so as a group you can stick together and you feel a bit more at home.

"There's a few times when I've come in by myself and everyone did make me feel welcome but it's nice to share those moments with your mates."
