Former Chelsea player Jason Cundy has praised Enzo Fernández’s leadership and passion, particularly noting his commitment during challenging times for the team.
After Chelsea’s victory over Southampton, Fernández has garnered significant praise for his performances, with many fans and experts acknowledging his growing influence. Cundy, speaking on TalkSport, emphasized how Fernández has stood out, even amid difficult moments for Chelsea.
“There’s something about his body language right now. Even though the team has struggled, he’s stepped up. I see leadership qualities in every game he plays. We don’t have a lot of leaders in the squad, but I’m seeing him take on that role,” Cundy remarked.
Cundy also highlighted Fernández’s reaction after Chelsea’s loss to Aston Villa, recalling how devastated he appeared, which further illustrated his deep care for the club’s success.
This sentiment reflects what many Chelsea supporters have observed. After the Aston Villa defeat, Fernández was seen staying behind to interact with fans, visibly upset by the result. His actions clearly demonstrated his genuine feelings for Chelsea.
Following the Southampton win, Fernández’s hard work was also praised by Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca, acknowledging the player’s dedication and continuous improvement. His resilience and determination are seen as key qualities for Chelsea’s current rebuilding process.
With Maresca at the helm, having a leader like Fernández setting an example is crucial. If other players can match his drive and passion, Chelsea’s future looks promising.
