Garth Crooks says one Chelsea player is "growing" with every game

Garth Crooks has shared his high praise for Joao Felix, claiming the Chelsea star is getting better with every next game.

The Blues played a 2 - 2 draw with Everton in the Premier League on Saturday as Felix scored one of the goals for his side along with Kai Havertz. 

Despite the result, Crooks was impressed by the Portuguese star's performance against the Toffees and included him in his Premier League Team of the Week. 

"This lad looks like he might provide Chelsea with the goals Chelsea need but also the class required in and around the opposition's penalty area. The Blues have done well to get this player on loan from Atletico Madrid. He cost the Spanish outfit a ferocious £126m and arrived at Stamford Bridge only having fallen out with Diego Simeone, who is capable of having an argument with himself in a room on his own," the pundit wrote on BBC Sport.

"Felix helped Benfica win the league in his first and only season with them and was awarded Primeira Liga's best young player of the year. His performance against a spirited Everton side was typical of a player growing in stature with every game," he added.
