From wanderer to mainstay! - Garth Crooks hails Conte’s transformation of Victor Moses

The former Spurs attacker has good words for the
Italian gaffer while highlighting the Nigerian’s rise
to prominence
Garth Crooks has hailed Chelsea manager Antonio
Conte’s transformation of Victor Moses as ‘unique’
following his awe-inspiring performances in their
record-breaking winning run.
The Blues are undefeated in 11 English Premier
League games and the 26-year-old has been a
revelation in the current setup at the Stamford
Bridge, turning heads with his showings each
matchday, in a right wing-back role.
The former Tottenham Hotspur star has credited
Conte for his guts to transform the serial loanee
into a main cog in his team.
"He [Conte] has done something that is quite
unique," Crooks told BBC Sport.
"No other English coach, outside of possibly Terry
Venables, would have found a position in a team
like Chelsea for Victor Moses.
“He has transformed their entire back five.
They've become almost impregnable. Who would
have thought it? This is a player who has been
wandering from club to club for the last three
years.
"Conte has seen him and turned an exciting
winger into a credible player who can defend and
attack in equal measure."
The Nigeria international has played 16 times and
scored thrice for the Blues this season and will be
hoping to help stretch the Blues winning run when
they face Bournemouth in a Boxing Day league
encounter.
