Victor Moses has committed his long-term future to Chelsea by penning a new contract with the club and extending his stay at Stamford Bridge until 2021
2016/17 has been a season of resurgence for Moses, who has finally been able to establish himself as a mainstay in the first team since moving to West London in 2012 from Wigan Athletic.
The change in formation to 3-4-3 proved to be the catalyst for him, with Moses proving himself to be an unlikely solution as Chelsea’s right wing-back. He has since turned in some exceptional performances and has been instrumental in the Blues’ charge to the top of the Premier League leaders.
As the news of his contract renewal starts filtering in, here are the best tweets as Chelsea fans greeted the announcement with fervour.
