"Chelsea winger Alejandro Garnacho has started slowly but is beginning to show the kind of form that previously got Manchester United fans excited. The Argentine, 21, got two assists during the 3-0 win over Wolves on Saturday, setting up the opening goal for Malo Gusto and the third for Pedro Neto, with Joao Pedro scoring the other. It was the first time Garnacho has had two Premier League assists in the same game, with the feat coming in his 99th appearance in the competition."
""Work hard - this has been the main message when he joined us," Maresca said. "In terms of quality on the ball we know he is good; to play with us he has to work hard. "On the ball he's doing well, but also off the ball he's working hard." Garnacho was ridiculed by supporters of League One side Lincoln City on his first start for Chelsea, lasting just 59 minutes during a poor display in the Carabao Cup."
Alejandro Garnacho struggled initially after a late £40m move to Chelsea, arriving short of fitness following an Exile at Manchester United. The 21-year-old produced two assists in a 3-0 win over Wolves, his first time providing two Premier League assists in the same match and the achievement arrived in his 99th appearance in the competition. Garnacho recorded no goals or assists in his first six Chelsea matches but has since produced two goals and two assists across his latest four games. The club has eased him into the squad, and the core message for his progress has been consistent hard work on and off the ball.
