Estevao Willian’s second season at Chelsea
Estevao Willian je prešao drugu sezonu u Chelseaju
Estevao Willian’s second season at Chelsea has started very differently from his first, and Barcelona are reportedly keeping a close eye on the situation. The 19-year-old remains one of Chelsea’s most exciting young players, but he has found Premier League opportunities difficult to come by under Xabi Alonso. That has naturally created questions over how large a role he will have this season, even though there is currently no indication that Chelsea want to sell.
Estevao Willianova druga sezona u Chelseaju počela je veoma drugačije od prve, a Barcelona navodno pažljivo prati situaciju. Devetnaestogodišnjak ostaje jedan od najuzbudljivijih mladih igrača Chelseaja, ali mu je teško došlo do prilika u Premier ligi pod vođstvom Xabi Alonsa. To je prirodno izazvalo pitanja o tome koliku ulogu će imati ove sezone, iako trenutno nema naznaka da Chelsea želi prodati.
According to Sport, Barcelona are monitoring Estevao as frustration grows around his limited involvement at Stamford Bridge.
Prema Sportu, Barcelona prati Estevaoa dok raste frustracija oko njegovog ograničenog učešća na Stamford Bridgeu.
The numbers explain why the subject has become relevant. Chelsea’s official statistics show Estevao has made four Premier League appearances this season but played only 23 minutes, without starting a league match. Across all competitions, he has made eight appearances and played 245 minutes. His reduced role comes after an encouraging debut campaign in which he produced eight goals and three assists in 36 appearances, including a memorable Champions League goal against Barcelona.
Brojevi objašnjavaju zašto je ova tema postala relevantna. Službena statistika Chelseaja pokazuje da je Estevao odigrao četiri nastupa u Premier ligi ove sezone ali je odigrao samo 23 minute, bez početka ligaške utakmice. U svim takmičenjima, odigrao je osam utakmica i odigrao je 245 minuta. Njegova smanjena uloga dolazi nakon ohrabrujuće debi sezone u kojoj je postigao osam golova i tri asistencije u 36 nastupa, uključujući pamtljiv gol u Ligi prvaka protiv Barcelone.
There is, however, an important distinction between external reports of frustration and Estevao’s own public comments. Speaking while away with Brazil, he said he was concentrating on the things he could control and continuing to work for opportunities.
Međutim, postoji važna razlika između vanjskih izvještaja o frustraciji i Estevaovih javnih komentara. Govoreći dok je bio daleko sa Brazilom, rekao je da se koncentrira na stvari koje može kontrolirati i nastavlja raditi za prilike.
