Chelsea boss Liam Rosenior has opened up and revealed there is no defensive midfielder in world football he would prefer to have over Moises Caicedo.
Caicedo has been at CHELSEA for the last couple of seasons after the Blues opted to splash over £100 million to secure his services ahead of the likes of Arsenal, Manchester United and Tottenham.
Many doubted that he would be able to liv upto the expectations that came with a massive price tag, but he is a player that done well under former boss Enzo Maresca, and is a player that Rosenior is very happy to have in his squad.
Caicedo undertook pre-match press conference duties alongside head coach ahead of our Champions League clash with Napoli this evening, and Rosenior was effusive in his praise of the man sitting to his left.
He said: ‘In my opinion, as a defensive midfield player, I wouldn’t want to sit next to anybody else in world football. That’s what I think of Moi; he knows that as I’ve told him.
‘I have a background at Brighton, so I know everything about his career. The scary thing is that yes, he is young, but he sometimes plays like he is 35 years old because his understanding of the game is top.
‘For me, one of the most exciting things about coming to this club was to work with players of Moi’s level and capacity, but also try to help improve even more, which I think is achievable.’

There are still alot of people out there that believe Caicedo was not worth the money that was paid, but he does his job very well, he scores a few goals and gets an assist here and there, the move has worked out.
He still has time to develop and at CHELSEA, he is doing that pretty well, so Rosenior will be hoping he can keep the midfielder fit and keep him away from the bigger clubs that may be interested.
