Tallies five tackles in win
Chema recorded five tackles (two won) in Sunday's 5-0 victory versus Crystal Palace. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 64th minute.
Analysis: Chema helped Brighton compete for control in midfield, completing 38 of his 46 passes and winning two of game-high five tackles against the Eagles. He played more than 80 minutes for the third straight Premier League match after resting midweek. The team's high possession and excellent form suit his game, but his role may become more intermittent with the depth and competition for central spots boosted following the return of Jack Hinshelwood from injury.
Nets in draw
Chema scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Eintracht Frankfurt. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 27th minute.
Analysis: Chema scored once during Saturday's draw, making the most of his two shots on goal during the clash. It was a weird match, with both sides looking leaky at the back, and neither side doing enough to really earn all three points. Chema ends the campaign as a rotational piece with three goals in 1,306 minutes from midfield.
