Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has named the Chelsea player who “is improving a lot and understanding the game much better.”
The Blues have a huge game to play in the Premier League tonight against London rivals Tottenham, and the game has become even bigger now after some results in the league last night. Chelsea fans are starting to fear the worst after Newcastle and Manchester City both won last night to leapfrog them in the league standings and put The Blues down to sixth place.

However, it is very much in Chelsea’s hands right now because if they beat Spurs tonight at Stamford Bridge, then they reclaim their position in fourth place for now. A draw will put them above Newcastle in fifth place, but a defeat will leave them exactly where they are now in sixth and that will see a worrying slog ahead for the season run in. Make no mistake, tonight has now become MASSIVE for Chelsea.
In other news today, Chelsea are once again being linked with a move to sign Wolves striker Matheus Cunha in the summer, although this one seems a bit unrealistic in my view.
But back to tonight, and Enzo Fernandez will have a big part to play as always, becoming crucial to this Chelsea side.

‘Enzo, since we started, is improving a lot and understanding the game much better,’ Maresca explained in his pre-match press conference ahead of Spurs as cited on the Chelsea website.
‘At the beginning he struggled a little bit but is now always doing the right things and is in the right positions.
‘The reason why he is scoring and assisting is because he is in the right position. Even with the national team, he was getting into the box, so I’m happy with Enzo.’
