Ghana and Chelsea defender Baba Abdul Rahman who is enjoying his best spell since joining Chelsea will be hoping he has done enough to maintain his starting position against Manchester City this weekend.

The 21-year-old past the test with flying colors when he was pinned against the very best players in the world in Chelsea’s 2-1 defeat to PSG on Wednesday night.

The highly rated Ghanaian won the battle against Lucas Moura and later Marquinhos in what was arguably the biggest game of his young career.

With little time to recover after the defeat to PSG in France Baba Rahman and his team mates have turned attention to the big FA Cup game against Manchester City this weekend with the Ghanaian hoping for his third game in seven days.

The former Asante Kotoko man joined Chelsea this summer from Augsburg in a 21 Million Euro deal and has taken seven months to finally find his rhythm in England .
