Ziyech’s Brilliance Impresses Ex-Chelsea Star as Blues Boost Attack

"In two games, he (Ziyech) has proven to be an even better player than I thought, and I already thought he was very good. This ability to see the crucial balls and be able to play them at the right time and pace between compact defenses is something we really needed to add to our arsenal," said the former Scottish international on the official Chelsea website.

The Atlas Lion has put in some fine performances in his last two appearances, which have allowed his club to beat Burnley in the Premier League and Krasnodar in the Champions League. For Pat, these were moments of genius. (...) His pass to Timo Werner for the third goal was an overlooked moment of genius. Anyone, from Kevin De Bruyne to Cesc Fabregas, would have been proud of that," he added, while also giving Ziyech credit for the two goals scored in two games.
