Romeo Lavia, Malo Gusto and Filip Jorgensen could benefit from that rotation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-caicedo-a-man-in-form-for-blues\">Caicedo a man in form for Blues<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Moises Caicedo has been Chelsea\u2019s standout player this season and he was so again when his team took on rivals Tottenham at the weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The former Brighton midfielder registered the assist for the only goal of the game as he physically dominated the Spurs midfield. The Ecuadorian now has four goals and an assist in all competitions this season, already matching his tally for goal involvements from the whole of the 2024\/25 campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Palmer injured it has been Caicedo\u2019s ball-winning and positivity in midfield that have been key to the Blues\u2019 recent success, they have won six of their last seven games in all competitions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His midfield partner Fernandez was effusive in his praise after the Tottenham game, saying \u201cHe\u2019s a very humble, hard-working guy, who always gives his all for the team every day. I&#8217;m very happy to have him at Chelsea; he&#8217;s a machine. I hope it continues like this.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the visit of Wolves waiting on Saturday, Maresca may choose to limit Caicedo\u2019s involvement in this game, but if he does feature, he is sure to have a big impact.<\/p>\n\n\n    <div class=\"sq-articles-list\">\n                    <h2 class=\"sq-heading-line\">Latest News<\/h2>\n                <div class=\"sq-cards\">\n
