Former Chelsea winger Pat Nevin reckons that Victor Moses played probably his best game in a Chelsea shirt in their win at Southampton in the Premier League on Sunday.

And the former Scotland international has praised Moses or his professionalism, adding that the Nigerian didn’t complain when he was not considered for the first team and had to be farmed out on loan to Liverpool, Stoke City and West Ham.

With manager Antonio Conte altering his formation to a 3-4-3, Moses has been one of the beneficiaries, starting the last four matches contested by the Blues in the English top-flight as a right wing back.

“Marcos Alonso and Victor Moses were colossal and for me Moses had his best game by far in a Chelsea shirt, ” Nevin Nevin stated on Chelsea’s official website.

“So while many would have given man of the match to Diego or Eden, I certainly would not have begrudged Victor getting the nod.

“His tackling was fantastic and bordering on the fanatical at times. No one got past him but he still managed to hammer up and down that right-hand side for most of the match like an Olympic 400 metre gold medallist. ”

Moses, 25, has been involved in 11 matches in all competitions so far this season, scoring three goals.
