The converted wing-back has starred for Chelsea since Antonio Conte took charge, but his 89th-minute strike at Brighton marked his very first league goal of the 2017-18 season.

Cesc Fabregas missed the win through injury, however he couldn't help but make a joke at Moses' expense straight after the game - and Chelsea fans loved it.

Moses took to Twitter as the Blues kept the pressure on second-placed Manchester United and attempted to consolidate their position in the top four.

"Quality team performance from the boys today," the 27-year-old said. "Buzzing to get on the score sheet. Thanks to all the travelling fans. Great support as always."

Chelsea fans really enjoyed the funny nature of Fabregas' light-hearted tweet, with some even using it as a chance to troll record-signing Alvaro Morata.

Given that Fabregas is known for his excellent passing ability, it's easy to see why he wants Moses' finishing off his own passes to improve, giving him more assists too.

Conte will hope to have Fabregas available when Chelsea travel to Arsenal in the EFL Cup semi-final second leg before hosting Newcastle United and Bournemouth in the league.
