Moisés Caicedo has carried an enormous responsibility at Chelsea over the last three seasons, consistently putting in the hard work and covering huge areas of the pitch, often having to compensate for Enzo Fernández’s positioning and defensive responsibilities.
The Ecuadorian midfielder has been one of Chelsea’s most reliable, consistent and durable performers, regularly doing the dirty work that allows other players to express themselves further up the pitch. His energy, tackling, ball recovery and ability to protect the defence have made him an incredibly important figure in the team. 💪🔵
However, there are growing concerns that the amount of responsibility placed on his shoulders may finally be taking its toll.
His performances and availability this season have become a talking point, raising questions about whether Chelsea have relied too heavily on him without providing enough support or allowing him sufficient recovery time.
Caicedo cannot be expected to carry the midfield almost single-handedly every week. Chelsea need to find a better balance, share the defensive workload and ensure their midfielders take collective responsibility.
YOU CANNOT KEEP ASKING ONE PLAYER TO DO EVERYONE ELSE’S JOB FOREVER! 👀💙
