“I want to play Football again because of him” – Paul Scholes names one Chelsea star he would loved to play with after his Fantastic performance in 1-1 draw against Man Utd
Paul Scholes, a star of Manchester United, has said that Moises Caicedo is the kind of player he would like to have played with.
Caicedo was a standout during Sunday’s 1-1 tie between Chelsea and United at Old Trafford, which cost the Blues the opportunity to move up to third place.
It could have been worse for Chelsea, who had fallen down with 20 minutes remaining after Bruno Fernandes’ penalty kick. However, Caicedo’s incredible volley tied the score, and they had a late chance to win it after Enzo Fernandez wasted a superb one.
Scholes would liked to have played with Caicedo
Caicedo was named as Chelsea’s man of the match, and he appears to be a player reborn under the guidance of Enzo Maresca this season.
The Ecuador international looks like he’s back to the form he showed at Brighton and is arguably the best midfielder in the league, although Maresca stopped short of saying it himself.
Caicedo and Romeo Lavia are now Chelsea’s first choice midfield partnership, whilst Jamie Redknapp believes the Ecuadorian plays better alongside the 20-year-old than Fernandez.
Speaking after the game Scholes described Caicedo as the type of player he would’ve liked to play with during his career.
“Moises Caicedo is the type of player you want to play with, you need that type of player,” he told the Premier League’s official website as quoted by The Chelsea Chronicle.
“He was probably the best out of the four [on the pitch].”
