Ross Barkley
Ross Barkley has been picked by Victor Moses as his standout player in Chelsea training so far this season.
The midfielder joined from Everton for £15million in January but made just four appearances under Antonio Conte in an injury-hit season.
Yet he started the first two games of Maurizio Sarri’s Stamford Bridge reign, and Moses believes Brkley is out to impress.

“He had a big injury but he’s started the season really well and he’s working his socks off.”
The Blues have enjoyed an impressive start to the season, with wins over Huddersfield, Arsenal and Newcastle to begin the Sarri era in style.

Barkley said: “I’ve watched clips (of Napoli) just to see the way they played, out of possession and in possession.
“I’ve seen how they played last season, and against Manchester City last season in the Champions League.
“They were a really exciting team, one-twos all over the pitch, one and two-touch football. Goals from all around the pitch.
“It was exciting football, and they were unfortunate not to win the league last season.”
