Chelsea interim boss reveals Enzo Fernandez’s ‘most impressive’ trait after Leeds display

Fernandez was outstanding against Leeds

Fernandez has been under scrutiny following comments in which he cast doubts over his future at Chelsea, leading to a recent two-match ban.

However, the 25-year-old produced a brilliant performance against Leeds, silencing critics who have questioned his commitment.

Deployed in the No.10 role, Fernandez created three chances — a game high — and one big chance.

He registered 79 touches, three of which came in the opposition box, and he was not dispossessed. He also completed 83 percent of his passes, eight of which were into the final third.

The Argentine made three tackles, one block and one clearance. He recorded four recoveries and won 62 percent of his ground duels.

McFarlane will be hoping Fernandez build on this momentum ahead of the final five matches of the season.

Chelsea are still aiming to qualify for the Champions League and beat Manchester City in next month’s FA Cup final.
