Estevao Willian breaks down in emotional admission
Liam Rosenior, Chelsea’s newly appointed head coach, appears to have been particularly struck by Estevao Willian’s performance during their initial training session together.
Rosenior conducted his inaugural practice at Cobham’s training facility on the day before Chelsea’s FA Cup third-round match against Charlton Athletic, scheduled for the following evening.
Early reports have emerged about the tactical elements Rosenior emphasized during practice, including news of an unexpected player who participated in the session.
Additionally, Chelsea has formally announced the assistant coaches and support staff who will work alongside Rosenior in his new role.
The new manager has inherited a talented squad with several notable players he’s likely excited to develop.
Among them is Estevao, the Brazilian talent who has made an encouraging beginning to his Chelsea career and demonstrated considerable potential.
**Rosenior takes notice of the Brazilian talent**
Estevao’s commitment and intensity appear to have caught Rosenior’s attention immediately, particularly during counter-pressing drills conducted in the training session.
Multiple videos circulated on social media platform X showing Rosenior enthusiastically encouraging Estevao, calling out “yes Estevao, yes, good reaction!”
Another clip captured Rosenior leaving the field with his arm around Estevao, continuing to acknowledge his strong performance.
**Estevao’s importance to the team**
Any manager would be thrilled to work with a talent like Estevao, who possesses all the necessary attributes and appears destined for world-class status once fully matured.
He’s expected to play a crucial role under Rosenior’s tactical approach, which emphasizes aggressive high pressing and rapid counter-pressing strategies.
