“He’s leading by example on the pitch now” “Players should learn from his mistakes” – John Obi Mikel Hails Chelsea star after his ‘Shocking’ transformation
John Obi Mikel, a former Chelsea midfielder, has praised Enzo Hernandez for his leadership and recent form comeback.
Hernandez’s outstanding performance in Chelsea’s thrilling 4-3 victory over Tottenham, which included a goal from the midfielder, earned Mikel’s praise.
In an interview with Chelsea News, Mikel discussed Hernandez’s season-long journey and the obstacles he surmounted to get back to his best:
“Sometimes you need that kick up your backside to get you to wake up. His performances weren’t good at the start of the season, and everyone was complaining. I think the manager took him out of the firing line to protect him a little bit.”
The former Chelsea star lauded Hernandez’s impact since his return to the starting lineup:
“Now, he’s brought him back into the team. You can see his stats there. Absolutely fantastic. He’s been absolutely fantastic since coming back into the team, and he is the captain right now. We need him to lead by example on the pitch.”
Hernandez’s transformation into a leader on the pitch has been evident, and his recent form has been crucial for Chelsea. As the team continues to push for success, Mikel’s endorsement highlights the importance of Hernandez’s role in leading by example.
