Sometimes when it comes to deciding what to write about, you simply cannot avoid the obvious. #CFC’s win over Ajax was inevitable once they went down to 10 men…Estevao still made it a night to remember. He’s a born entertainer. My column here: www.nytimes.com/athletic/674...

Chelsea have had their fair share of entertainers since making their debut in the Champions League: Zola, Robben and Hazard to name a few.

It is far too early to put Estevao in their category — but it may not take long if he continues progressing at such a fast rate 🇧🇷

Piece on the (young) man of the moment, Estevao Willian. He’s the talk of #CFC right now but how is his rise being seen back in his homeland of Brazil? Story here: www.nytimes.com/athletic/672...
What Brazil thinks of Estevao: ‘He looks really at ease – that doesn’t surprise me at all’
Some doubted he could perform against the biggest teams but the teenager's start at Chelsea is capturing the imagination in his homeland

Chelsea make it successive league wins against Liverpool for the first time since November 2014 after Estevao's stoppage time winner.

The champions are now without a win in their last five Premier League games at Stamford Bridge and have lost their last three games in all competitions.

So - have made the decision to postpone this week's pod until Wednesday to bring you full reaction to the Benfica game AND look ahead to the visit of Liverpool - which feels pretty huge 😬
