Chelsea star Victor Moses been transformed by Antonio Conte

The transition of Victor Moses from marauding forward to defensive-minded wing-back has been something of a miracle move by Chelsea manager Antonio Conte.

The player has been wandering in the wilderness for the four years of his Stamford Bridge contract. Not even 10 goals in his debut season following a £9million move from Wigan — signed by short-term manager Roberto Di Matteo — was deemed good enough and loan spells at Liverpool, Stoke and West Ham have come in the previous three seasons.

At 25-years-old, many players would have decided it was probably time to move on, but Conte arrived and Moses got his head down once again and the transformation has been spectacular.
