    Rob Edwards, manager of Luton, called the 22-year-old Chelsea player "a special player.".
    After playing against Chelsea last night, Enzo Fernandez was singled out by Luton Town manager Rob Edwards as a player of exceptional talent.

    Although they made some encouraging strides during their trip to Stamford Bridge on Friday night, Luton has yet to win a game since their return to the Premier League this season.

    Ultimately, Chelsea’s class won out, and they defeated Luton 3-0 to earn three crucial league points.

    Last night, the Blues’ attack was too powerful to contain. Raheem Sterling, who has been in excellent form this season, first scored two beautiful goals inside the penalty area. Nicolas Jackson then scored a deserving goal for his first in English football.

    In his post-game interview with Luton’s X, Rob Edwards singled out Chelsea’s Enzo Fernandez as a standout opponent.

    The outside center-backs need to be really brave the way we go because these teams ask you to do certain things, according to Edwards. Enzo Fernandez, a special player, and Burkey (Reece Burke), were going all-in.

    In the first few games of the season, Fernandez, who has been playing as an advanced midfielder recently, is showing off all of his strength.

    Fernandez appears to be one of the many players that Blues head coach Mauricio Pochettino is already getting the most out of.

    With some of his deft passes and time on the ball against Luton, the 22-year-old Argentine star was once more a joy to watch.

    Fernandez needs to add goals to his repertoire, Jamie Carragher said during last night’s live coverage of Sky Sports. If he could just perfect his final touch, we believe you might be looking at one of the top midfielders in the world.

    Luton then gave a frightening reminder how close the score still was despite Chelsea’s dominance, creating a huge chance out of practically nothing. Sánchez manages to take the shot and clear it, with Gusto’s desperate dive that takes the sting out of the shot but also deflects it.

    Chilwell and Sterling then squandered a few more chances before Sterling finally completed a beautiful pass in the 68th minute. Sterling then continued to be a supplier for a few minutes, with Jackson touching home to secure the points.

    Three points, to the Bridge!

    Carefree.

    Romano: Chelsea will sign ONE more

    Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that Chelsea plan to sign another attacking player before the end of the summer transfer window.

    Despite spending a record €323m on players in that span, Mauricio Pochettino’s side are still short of attacking options following Christopher Nkunku’s injury which is set to sideline him until around Christmas.

    That resulted in Chelsea’s few goals in their first two Premier League games of the season, drawing 1-1 with Liverpool before suffering a 3-1 loss to West Ham on Sunday. Alphonse Areola saved a penalty from Enzo Fernandez.

    Transfer information expert Romano reported just hours after the final whistle after the West Ham defeat that the Blues wanted another attacking player who could be creative, with Carney Chukwuemeka limping out of that encounter after scored a nice goal.

    “For us, we rushed the situations. We have to be patient and open the field better. But when we look at the data, we had 50 entries in the last third, which is surprising. But we weren’t lucid enough to score for several reasons,” Pochettino confirmed after the match.

    Romano: Chelsea will sign ONE more

    The solution, according to Romano, will be to add another player to the club.

    Chelsea saw a move for Crystal Palace star Michael Olise collapse last week, with the France U21 winger signing a new contract at Selhurst Park, while Juventus are still keen to swap Dusan Vlahovic for Romelu Lukaku. However, the Blues want another type of player.

    Romano named Lyon’s Bradley Barcola and Rennes’ Jeremy Doku as possible targets, but noted that the former favors PSG, while the latter is close to a move to Manchester City.

    Kudus to Chelsea last

    It has been three weeks since Chelsea spoke to Mohammed Kudus about a move away from Ajax, Romano added, suggesting a deal is not imminent.

    However, he noted West Ham’s move for the player is “totally pending” and “almost out” as they struggle to agree a fee with Ajax, leaving the door open for an approach in the closing days of the window. .

    Opinion: After being ignored for years, Chelsea have a midfield to be reckoned with

    Opinion: After being ignored for years, Chelsea have a midfield to be reckoned with
    Once Chelsea confirm the signing of Romeo Lavia, they will have assembled one of the best midfielders in world football in two transfer windows.

    This area of ​​the pitch has been neglected by the club for years. Chelsea haven’t had a proper defensive midfielder since Nemanja Matic and he left our club in 2017.

    Since then we’ve had some decent midfielders (some very good), but overall our midfield was nowhere near good enough, unbalanced and lacking the right profiles to compete in the Premier League.

    If you want to win consistently and be a consistent force in world football, you have to make sure you have the perfect team engine, which is the midfield. And this starts from the base, with a defensive midfielder.

    Opinion: After being ignored for years, Chelsea have a midfield to be reckoned with
    Chelsea now with Enzo Fernandez, Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia on standby, they have absolutely everything in midfield now and it’s a fantastic moment and a fantastic feeling for us Blues fans.

    Enzo single-handedly led our midfield and team last season when we had a horrible year in football, but now he finally has the help he needs and deserves.

    Caicedo and Lavia will provide the defensive stability and awareness we’ve needed for so long, as well as the athleticism and physicality. Both players know how to defend, close the distance, intercept and tackle: all things that we have lacked a lot. Then Enzo will be free for them to do what he does best and that is to create and shoot.

    Enzo actually has a really good shot with him and knows how to find the net, but last season he was so blocked we never saw him. He also has great vision and an eye for passing, and he’s now being given the freedom to do all of that.

    It’s literally a dream come true for Chelsea fans and it still feels like that, a big dream! But it’s not a dream, Chelsea now have a VERY good and capable midfield with the perfect complementary profiles for each other. What a future they have, and they’re all young, so it’s a future we should see thrive and improve and have for many years to come!
