Estevao Willian has stepped up for Chelsea in the absence of their star man Cole Palmer.
In 16 appearances this season, Estevao has scored four goals and provided one assist, which is quite impressive for an 18-year-old who only arrived in England over the summer.
Palmer is injured right now so has not had too many opportunities to play alongside the Brazilian.
Carlo Ancelotti has high hopes for Estevao Willian
“Estevao has incredible talent on the right. With him, Brazil has a guarnateed future.”
Carlo Ancelotti
So far, he has shared the pitch with Estevao just three times since his teammate’s move to west London.

Chelsea fans confident Estevao Willian and Cole Palmer will be unstoppable together
Once Palmer is back and in the same starting XI as Estevao, Chelsea fans think it could be very bad news for the rest of the Premier League.
They recently took to the social media platform X to express their excitement over the potential Palmer and Estevao link-up, claiming that the two attackers will be a deadly duo.
We are going to have these two in top form playing for Chelsea very soon.

One Chelsea supporter has sent a warning to the club’s rivals, saying: “Can’t wait for this combo man… It’ll be scary but not for us.”
Another said practically the same thing. “Can’t wait for this combination. It’s going to be scary.”
One Chelsea fan is expecting Estevao and Palmer to terrorise English football. They said: “These two boys will destroy the Premier League.”
Another supporter simply described Estevao and Palmer as a “great combination”.
One other user on X said: “Can’t wait to see them combining when both are at 100%.”
And another posted: “They ain’t ready for this duo.”
Before his injury, Palmer managed to score goals against Bayern Munich and Brentford. Chelsea have missed his quality, but they are still doing well without him.
The Club World Cup winners currently find themselves sitting third in the Premier League table.

Estevao Willian and Cole Palmer partnership not imminent
Unfortunately for Chelsea supporters, they may have to wait before they get to see Estevao and Palmer in the same team again.
Palmer is a doubt for next week’s game against Barcelona, while the Blues have to take on Burnley before then.
At this rate, fans may not see Palmer back in action until December. For now, Premier League teams do not have to worry about the combo of the England international and Estevao.
