Enzo Fernandez has delivered glowing praise when discussing the quality of one Chelsea teammate.
Chelsea are in the fortunate position this season where so many of their players are in good form, including Enzo Fernandez.
Enzo Maresca deserves major credit for arriving as the Blues manager in the summer and making such a positive impact.
Yes, Maresca has inherited a Chelsea squad full of exciting youngsters with massive potential. However, we’ve seen some of his predecessors really struggle with the size of the job at Stamford Bridge.
Joe Cole rates Chelsea’s Maresca as the Premier League’s best manager based on what’s happened so far this season.

Enzo Fernandez praises Cole Palmer
Chelsea midfielder Fernandez, 23, has claimed that Cole Palmer works extremely hard off the pitch to help achieve his success on it.
“Cole has shown he is a very good player but he also works hard every day to be where he is,” Fernandez told Sky Sports.
“Nobody knows what he will be able to achieve in football but I believe in him and I trust that he will achieve anything he puts his mind to because he has incredible quality.”

Palmer continues to establish himself as one of the Premier League’s elite players. In 16 league matches this season, he’s scored 11 goals and created six assists.
The 22-year-old attacking midfielder is a key reason behind the Blues sitting second in the division table right now.
Martin Keown says Chelsea’s Palmer has “magical powers” because of his influence on the football pitch. In fairness, what he’s done since arriving from Manchester City in the summer of 2023 has been out of this world.
Chelsea talisman Cole Palmer is a marked man
While Palmer’s impact in the Premier League came from nowhere last season, he’s now a player that every opposition team will be speaking about in their pre-match preparations.
The Chelsea playmaker is always finding new ways to impact games, picking up so many clever pockets to make his mark. It’s usually always the way that the team’s best play goes through him.
As you can see below, opponents are really sticking it on Palmer, which is a sign how much he’s feared.
