[Ben Jacobs] Maresca on Enzo Fernandez as vice-captain after he took the armband from Reece James in multiple games. "He's one of the important players. Honest, I think when we changed Reece he gave the 'bracelet' to Enzo this shows how Enzo is respected inside the squad. I think it's quite clear.”
