In what was a typically dramatic affair between Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur once, it was Enzo Maresca who had the last laugh as the hosts won 1-0 at Stamford Bridge.
Enzo Fernandez scored the one and only goal while donning the armband for Chelsea after Destiny Udogie failed to track his run and the Argentine headed the ball in from close quarters.
Cole Palmer might have not been at his vintage best but his cross was a reminder of why he remains Enzo Maresca’s go-to match-winner.
However, one man who perhaps stood out above the rest was Moises Caicedo.
Chelsea fans could not help but sing Caicedo’s praises as he stole the show against Tottenham.

One Chelsea fan lauded Caicedo’s masterclass against Tottenham, simply writing: “Caicedo is honestly unreal. Best ball winner in the world.”
A second Blues supporter hailed the former Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder’s display against Ange Postecoglou and Co as well: “Moises Caicedo nearly lost his leg in the first 3 minutes and then proceeded to drop a world class performance. I love this guy.”
A third Chelsea fan claimed that Caicedo is the best midfielder in the Premier League after his heroics against Tottenham: “Caicedo even with one leg is the best midfielder in this league.”
A fourth Chelsea fan feels Caicedo is a club legend already, saying: “Caicedo already a club legend ngl (not going to lie).”
A fifth supporter added: “Caicedo genuinely one of the best players we ever signed, I love this guy so much man.”
One Chelsea fan compared Caicedo to the likes of Claude Makelele and N’Golo Kante after his incredible performance against Tottenham: “Caicedo is on Kante and Makelele levels of ability man.”
