I can't resist a line about Chelsea's winger Estevao, he really is exceptional. Only a tiny number of players can produce this particular special effect. If you get a chance whether at Stamford Bridge, or while watching a game on TV, close your eyes and listen to the sound of the crowd when Estevao gets the ball in the final third.
It is the purified sound of expectation, excitement and support from an entire stadium. Very few can make that happen just by getting the ball.
‌It is probably best to shut your eyes when watching it back on record as you might just miss yet another incredibly imaginative piece of brilliance from the wonderkid if you try this approach live.
‌He was at it again for Brazil against Senegal at the weekend. I'd pay to watch him warm up and while he might not be the best player in the Premier League (...yet), he may well already be the most enjoyable to watch.

Yesssss
 
we are not the team to get a red

All own goals welcomed 

That assist from Gittens was sublime

Stubbed it on a door at home apparently
Maresca - "I wake up many times during the night - I hit my head, my legs, my everything - so it can happen." 
Thats his missus hitting him probably

Think I'm going to this, awaiting on ticket info from a friend

We need to sell Lavia. He is made of glass

Estevao is just a special player

EXCLUSIVE - When Cole Palmer is expected back - return plans revealed
https://siphillipstalkschelsea.substack.com/p/exclusive-when-cole-palmer-is-expected

As reported at the time, Cole Palmer’s injury was more serious than what Enzo Maresca was saying and what was being reported.
His injury was made worse by him being played again too soon and he went on and hindered the groin injury.
At this moment in time, there is still no talk of any surgery, and Palmer is on his way back.
Good News
As per SPTC Sources, Chelsea have a return plan set out for Cole Palmer to get back into the squad.
We can reveal that Palmer will be back on the grass doing individual training very soon and the plan at the moment is to give him 30 minutes against Burnley on November the 22nd, in a view for him getting his first start for the Barcelona game on November the 25th.
Obviously I have to say that this is the plan, and sometimes plans don’t always come off. But right now, he is on schedule to make this and this is what they are planning to do with him.
As long as there are no setbacks between now and then, or unless if his recovery goes even faster, this is when we can all expect to see Palmer back out on the pitch with Chelsea.
Let’s hope things continue to go well so we can soon add Palmer back into the mix again. Let’s also hope that this groin injury does not reoccur again. It’s good to see that this time at least, they are letting it fully heal.

We are currently the only team in UCL history to have three teenagers score in a game.....come on Reggie!!

I found this on Delap
Liam Delap is expected to return after the November international break, with a target of December for his full return to the Chelsea squad. Initially, he was expected to be out for 10-12 weeks after suffering a hamstring injury in late August, but his recovery is reportedly going well.
