Mourinho’s third season curse continued and Chelsea and Fabregas had a forgettable 2015-16 season when Leicester City surprised everyone with a great run.

Fabregas was not expected to play an important part in Antonio Conte’s Chelsea team in the new season. Conte’s hardworking and high tempo style was seen a bit too much for Fabregas’ age as well his natural game.

But Conte did realize it soon that Fabregas was the most important 12th player for Chelsea who could fill up various roles. Many time he came up for Matic to provide the creativity required to complement Kante’s play. Many times he became the winger in a front three with Costa and Hazard.

Cesc played in each of Chelsea’s final 31 games, most of the times as a substitute, but an impactful substitute though. Fabregas had the highest number of assists in the Chelsea team which consisted of Hazard, Willian, and Pedro.
