Calum McFarlane labelled Enzo Fernandez \u201cexceptional\u201d after the midfielder inspired Chelsea to a 2-1 victory over Tottenham at Stamford Bridge.<\/strong><\/p>\n The Argentine produced a decisive display, scoring a brilliant goal and setting up another<\/strong><\/span>to keep Chelsea<\/strong><\/span> in the hunt for European football.<\/p>\n The win came as a massive boost to the Blues, who had been struggling for form and faced a gruelling turnaround following their weekend cup final defeat against Manchester City.<\/p>\n \u201cI thought Enzo was exceptional tonight,\u201d interim boss McFarlane said. \u201cHis goal was brilliant, his assist as well. He has obviously made a massive impact.<\/p>\n \u201cI wouldn\u2019t want to single out one player. I thought the whole team, the subs came off the bench and gave energy when we needed it.\u201d<\/p>\n The win lifted Chelsea to eighth in the table, above Brentford. The highest either can finish is seventh \u2013 which might be enough to secure a Europa League spot.<\/p>\n The Blues are away to Sunderland this weekend in their final match of a turbulent campaign.<\/p>\n McFarlane added: \u201cI think this group wants to win every single game of football, and we just haven\u2019t been able to do that. But that will give us confidence.<\/p>\n \u201cWe haven\u2019t won in a while in the Premier League, we haven\u2019t won at the Bridge in a while, so that is something to definitely go off.\u201d<\/p>\n Get the latest direct to your phone \u2013 follow West London Sport\u2019s WhatsApp channel<\/strong><\/p>\n Follow<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n <\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Calum McFarlane labelled Enzo Fernandez \u201cexceptional\u201d after the midfielder inspired Chelsea to a 2-1 victory…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":11138,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11137","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-chelsea"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11137","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=11137"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11137\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/11138"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=11137"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=11137"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=11137"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"WhatsApp\"\/](\"https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/6\/6b\/WhatsApp.svg\")
