The duo cost Chelsea a combined \u00a3221.8million and walked through the door at Stamford Bridge with the loftiest of expectations.<\/p>\n<p>Fernandez was signed from Benfica in January for \u00a3106.8m while Todd Boehly forked out \u00a3115m to snap up Caicedo from Brighton over the summer. Both players broke the Premier League transfer record but the Blues are yet to get the best out of either of them &#8211; a fact Chelsea executives are all too aware of.<\/p>\n<p>According to Simon Phillips&#8217; Substack, Chelsea&#8217;s owners have been left dumbfounded by Caicedo and Fernandez&#8217;s form in west London. However, there is a widespread belief that they will come good eventually.<\/p>\n<p>The midfielders came under immense scrutiny for poor displays during recent defeats to Manchester United and Everton that have seen the Blues slip down into the bottom half of the Premier League table.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Moises-Caicedo-Enzo-Fernandez-5113699.jpg?r=1702482117551\"><\/p>\n<p>Last time out against the Toffees the money-spinning duo were outplayed in the centre of the park by two players valued at a fraction of the price &#8211; Idrissa Gueye and James Garner. Wright was less than impressed by their performances and put them on blast after the game.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The fact is Pochettino and Chelsea, for me, are playing worse than [Manchester] United, and I\u2019m not saying that disrespectfully,&#8221; said Wright. &#8220;When you look at them, their organisation and the way they\u2019re playing. You\u2019ve got two midfielders in there [Fernandez and Caicedo], \u00a3200million worth of midfielders that are being walked through. What is going on?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Even Blues boss Mauricio Pochettino admits that their partnership needs some work. &#8220;The relationship between them needs to improve of course, between them and individually also,&#8221; he said. &#8220;They are young, the expectation is massive when you arrive.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Ian-Wright-5113698.jpg?r=1702482117680\"><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Support fearless journalism<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Read The Daily Express online, advert free<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Get super-fast page loading<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Caicedo had one season in Brighton and Enzo after three months in Europe, he was in Benfica before arriving to the Premier League. Arriving not in the best place to perform quick because they need to be part of the solution.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They are not the cherry of the cake. When you arrive in a team that is in a building process and you&#8217;re young with not too much experience, even if you have good quality and people can see the club paid big money and only for that you need to perform, it is not like this in football.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Some people think in this way because they don&#8217;t know about football. It&#8217;s a process. It&#8217;s going to be a process for different reasons. Chelsea are in a completely different reality in the last years and we need to attack this. We can&#8217;t live only thinking in the past. We need to keep the culture and understand we are in Chelsea and always it&#8217;s about winning, but the reality is completely different.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/affiliateswidgets\/175x108\/1695116350709.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/affiliateswidgets\/115x50\/1695116196960.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/affiliateswidgets\/115x50\/1695116196960.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Watch TNT Sports and Discovery+ througn Amazon Prime Video for \u00a329.99 a month.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s an easy way to watch all the best sports and the Premier League throughout 2023 without signing up to a contract.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/affiliateswidgets\/175x108\/1692264159219.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/affiliateswidgets\/115x50\/1692263979790.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/affiliateswidgets\/115x50\/1692263979790.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Sky is giving exisiting customers the chance to watch TNT Sports for just \u00a325 a month.<\/p>\n<p>It is added onto your existing package meaning you can watch every UEFA Champions League and Europa League match, plus exclusive Premier League games.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/affiliateswidgets\/175x108\/1692264531299.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/affiliateswidgets\/115x50\/1692264338510.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/affiliateswidgets\/115x50\/1692264338510.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Virgin Media allows customers to upgrade their existing packages for a set price.<\/p>\n<p>But if you&#8217;re not yet a Virgin Media customer, you can get the Bigger Bundle + Sports for \u00a365 a month.<\/p>\n<p>It comes with mega fast broadband, a Virgin 360 box and TONS of sports channels for you to enjoy.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/1845184\/Chelsea-Ian-Wright-football-news\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pochettino reviews Chelsea&#039;s defeat at Everton Chelsea&#8217;s owners are reportedly in agreement with Ian Wright that Moises Caicedo and Enzo <span class=\"more-text\">&hellip;<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":302361,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Chelsea owners agree with Wright after being left &#039;dumbfounded&#039;
