Moises Caicedo once again performed well in the absence of his teammate Enzo Fernandez at Chelsea.
Not long ago, the Chelsea official website confirmed that Enzo Fernandez would miss the remainder of the season to undergo treatment for an injury. This is considered a significant loss for The Blues as the number 8 midfielder plays an important role at the club.
However, in the last two matches without the Argentine star, Chelsea fans have witnessed the resurgence of Moises Caicedo.
Enzo is out for the rest of the season
Former Brighton star Moises Caicedo played exceptionally well against Aston Villa and Tottenham. In the victory over “The Cockerels” on the night of May 2nd, Caicedo continued to dominate the midfield for the visiting team.
According to statistics from Squawka, in just the first 45 minutes, the Ecuadorian midfielder won 6 duels, made 2 accurate tackles against Tottenham.
Caicedo is transforming in Chelsea’s two recent matches
In the second half, Moises Caicedo continued his brilliant form with an additional 3 successful tackles and 4 instances of breaking free from pressure.
Moises Caicedo’s consistent performance in the two matches without Enzo Fernandez clearly demonstrates that the two may not be truly compatible playing alongside each other.
Playing alongside Conor Gallagher, Moises Caicedo has found a reliable partner on the field. The English midfielder and the 22-year-old player have formed a cohesive partnership, rather than relying solely on the club’s record signing when playing with Enzo Fernandez.
