James praises Estevao

Chelsea captain Reece James has heaped praise on Estevao Willian following his performance against Qarabag in the Champions League yesterday.



The Blues played out a frustrating 2-2 draw on the road last night. Estevao opened the scoring for the west London giants, but Qarabag scored twice before the break.

Alejandro Garnacho bagged the equaliser in the second half, but the Blues could not find the winner. Estevao was handed the man of the match accolade.

Speaking after the 2-2 stalemate against Qarabag, James described Estevao as an amazing player, who has the world at his feet at just 18.

He said: "Estevao is an amazing player and he has the world at his feet. He’s got a lot of development sill to come but we’re super happy."

Chelsea will return to Premier League action this weekend against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Stamford Bridge on Saturday night.

They should be overwhelming favourites for the game, given Wolves have picked up just two points from their opening 10 league matches.
