Watching Barco play and seeing what Caicedo has been doing lately, I can’t lie, I’m starting to see shades of Kante and Jorginho.
Kante was the one doing the dirty work, winning the ball and covering every blade of grass, while Jorginho would take over and make things tick.
If Barco and Caicedo can actually develop that kind of partnership, Chelsea might have found a midfield combination that could surprise a lot of people.
And honestly, I’d rather see these two given a proper run together than keep changing the midfield every week.
Maybe we’re looking at our new Kante–Jorginho partnership and we just don’t realise it yet.
