Enzo Fernandez has named the Chelsea player he enjoys playing with more than any other in Liam Rosenior’s squad.
Fernandez has already scored 11 goals and registered four assists in 36 appearances this season, and has been nominated for January’s Player of the Month award.
The 25-year-old has been in great form since Rosenior took over, and Fernandez scored a last minute winner against West Ham last weekend.
Enzo Fernandez praises Moises Caicedo
Fernandez has scored eight league goals this season, and is the top scoring midfielder in the league so far, and arguably the most in form currently.
The 25-year-old has played both in a pivot and a more advanced number ten role, having success in both positions.

Fernandez has spoken on how Frank Lampard is an “inspiration,” and if he can get anywhere near to what he achieved it would be quite something.
The Argentine has a number of talented team-mates, but he named one player he enjoys playing with more than any other.
“I like to play with Moi, he’s a beast, I enjoy playing next to him,” he told ESPN.
“I prefer to play with a midfielder like that next to me because I can let go.”
Fernandez will be hoping to continue his form against Wolves on Saturday, and it will be interesting to see if he plays a deeper or more advanced role.
