Joe Cole lauds Chelsea's Joao Pedro after the Blues' 4-2 triumph over Wrexham in the FA Cup. Wrexham initially led twice, but Chelsea rallied with an own goal from Arthur Okonko and a strike from Josh Acheampong. With Wrexham reduced to ten men, Chelsea capitalized in extra time with goals from Alejandro Garnacho and Pedro, who netted shortly after coming off the bench. Pedro has now scored 11 goals in his last 12 matches. Cole describes him as a “monster,” highlighting his intelligent play and finishing ability. Former Watford teammate Ben Foster also praises Pedro's versatility and flair, noting his ability to confuse defenders. Foster expresses surprise at Pedro not starting, indicating the striker’s confidence after a recent hat-trick. Chelsea now advances to the quarter-finals, with a Champions League clash against Paris Saint-Germain on the horizon.
