Former Chelsea star Nevin spoke highly of the team's recent performances, especially praising the performances of the two new summer signings Felix and Hall. He believes that these two players have shown enough strength and are fully qualified to get more playing time in important matches. Nevin mentions that Chelsea under Maresca's stewardship have started well and have a more consistent squad and style of play, which is different from the past. At the beginning of the season, although many did not expect Chelsea to finish in the top four, Nevin firmly believes that the team has the foundation to do so and has the strength in the squad to do so.
Regarding Felix, Nevin said that he likes him a lot and believes that many people underestimate his ability. He emphasized that Felix needs to be given more of a chance to perform in the first team and believes that he will impress people in the game. As for Hall, Nevin was even more complimentary, believing that he is a truly superb player who has proved his mettle in the UEFA Europa League despite not getting too many games yet. Nevin predicts that Hall will need more playing time soon.
Despite appreciating Chelsea's attacking end, Nevin also noted that the team still needs to work on the backline to become a perfect team. However, he was happy to see Chelsea return to a fluid style of play with creativity in all positions. Although the defense is still not perfect, Nevin was amazed at the quality of players the team has brought in and thinks their game is a pleasure to watch. Win or lose, top four or not, Nevin enjoys watching Chelsea play and expects this to continue this season.
