Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino is delighted with Enzo Fernandez's form going into their clash at Manchester City.

However, he insists there's been no change of position for the Argentina midfielder.

Pochettino said: "I don't believe that he is playing much deeper [on the pitch],' Pochettino replied when asked whether Fernandez's role has changed.

"We've always known he is a player with the capacity to use his quality in our build-up, but also that he could arrive in the opposition box with the ability to score.

"He now has the capacity to move, to run. He is improving a lot. That is why now we can see him building up, but also scoring goals like in the last minute against Palace, where he ran 70 or 60 metres.

"He is improving a lot. It is all about time. He is a player with the capacity to play box-to-box but also score goals with the technique that he has."
