I know he's been compared to Aguero but that clip against Middlesbrough reminds me so much of young Rooney or Tevez. The kind of forward you just deploy up front and they cover all three positions. Blows past defenders with either strength, speed or just streetwise skill. Equally likely to nutmeg you or chop you down. Will look 35 at age 24 and will be in their mid-50s at 30.

Just now on the pitch has to be Arsenal. It is also annoying in recent years we have not been able to capitalise on Utd's woes at OT. We wait to see if we can match, City and Liverpool on the pitch. Not sure about off the pitch, coming into Charing Cross or Victoria stations, Millwall were a concern back in the late 80s and early 90's, also aware back then we had off the pitch issues with Spurs and WHU.

My issue isn't with the fact that it's a Championship club. It's a level that will do him the world of good. It's Burnley, a poorly run club and likely candidates for relegation. There were other, better run clubs capable of providing him with a healthier environment.

I know. The question was rhetorical.

His dribbling/ball carrying is weird, he seems to drag the ball under his feet.

I actually think he has bulked up in his time here which has inevitably taken a bit off of his pace. He has also lost a bit of that guile needed by wide players. Even if he played in the 10 at the moment I would be worried that he would be caught in possession and dispossessed too easily. Needs a run of games, needs an injection of confidence, and we still have a massive talent here. Currently I am seeing parallels with early CHO, even before the injury. Precocious kid breaking through on a foundation of blistering pace allied to step overs and trickery. As soon as that pace dropped off I felt he got found out. Just hoping Estevao doesn't follow a similar pattern.

Theres a 3 minute clip of his activity during the game at Burnley last night ...Ive seen shorter reviews of a player covering a full season. To say he was busy would be an understatement. RW LW CF a litte deeper , but very little defensively haha

yes we were doing well with the first two..😂

Stevo has bags of talent, would love him to succeed here and turn on the style. He has a massive 6/12 months ahead of him, he has to impress Alonso, force his way into the side, and establish himself as a top Premier League player. He hasnt done that for me since arriving. We've seen flashes and moments of class, needs faith from the manager, run of games and minutes and stay injury free. A precocious talent who will force a move if he doesnt get game time. Barca/PSG/Real will all be sniffing around in January if he's not getting regular game time.

Have you seen any of his posts on here before? I think he deals exclusively in click bait internet speculation.

My vote is Gini. Really liked watching him play for the dippers. I think he's got enough left in the tank to help out when needed.

I dont see the problem. Watched three of their games and I agree - he's been their best player and is quickly gaining popularity with their fans. Being a key player in the championship is surely better for his development right now than sitting on the bench for a PL team, even if they are a bit of a shambles at the moment

Very good. He's a class above the rest of Burnley's dross. I still can't fathom why he was sent there.

You speak from experience?

Note the word could. Do you believe every bit of click bait internet speculation?

Yes. Eg, Man Utd currently owe other clubs £405m in instalments for bought players, more than half due within 12 months. All clubs are at it, a round robin of Monopoly money ultimately financed by banks and other lenders. As bubbles go it's a corker and we know what inevitably happens to bubbles.

this broke last night and its true under this system he wont play unless palmer or Rogers gets an injury or suspension, and these owners would sell him for 100m to anyone FootballTransfersEstevao ready to explore shock Chelsea exitChelsea winger Estevao Willian could explore a possible transfer when the January window opens if he continues to receive limited first-team opportunities at Stamford Bridge.

I could have sworn he had 4 injuries already

More along the lines of 4 steps forward and a stepped on a Lego moment

Neither of those players are likely to be more Premier League ready than Essugo may or may not be. Which actually makes it more surprising that BlueCo didn't try, in fairness. He had a single injury in his senior career at 20, how is that 'injury-prone'?

If the player didn't want to come, he wouldn't have bothered to do a last minute medical

Essugo is also injury prone

Ah f**k I thought this was tonight!

I think boos are pretty universal
