Moises Caicedo has completed a clean sweep of our October awards by being chosen as your Chelsea Player of the Month.
Another incredible string of performances by Caicedo has seen the Blues supporters vote him as the club’s player of the month for the second time in a row – it means he is both our Player of the Month and the scorer of our Goal of the Month for October.
In September, Moises topped the poll on the Chelsea Official App with 60 per cent of the votes cast by fans. This time around, it was slightly closer, as he took 56 per cent of the votes.
However, he still enjoyed a clear margin of victory over second-placed Estevao Willian, who received 35 per cent of the votes.
It is hard to argue with that verdict. Caicedo featured in all five of our matches across all competitions during October and scored two goals: a stunning opener as we began the month with a 2-1 win over Premier League champions Liverpool and the second of a 5-1 thrashing of Ajax in the Champions League.
Goalkeeper Robert Sanchez was certainly impressed: ‘He’s an actual animal! He’s the best player playing in his position anywhere. Who’s better than him in that position?
‘He’s a beast. Every challenge, every 50-50, he wins it. His composure on the ball, his finishing… if he strikes it on target it goes in!’
Congratulations again, Moi!
