EPL: Troy Deeney names only top quality player in Chelsea squad

Former Watford striker, Troy Deeney, has named Estevao Willian as the only real top quality winger in the Chelsea squad.

Deeney said that the Brazilian winger will develop into an ‘absolute monster.’

Chelsea are sitting third in the Premier League table after 11 games and are six points behind leaders, Arsenal.

The Blues brought in Joao Pedro, Liam Delap, Jamie Gittens and Alejandro Garnacho in the summer of 2025 to improve the squad this season.

Estevao has been one of the most outstanding players in the team so far as the former Palmeiras winger has enjoyed an electric start to life at Stamford Bridge.

The 18-year-old has already netted four goals and provided an assist in his first 16 appearances.

“Chelsea have got the young kid Estevao who is going to be an absolute monster,” the Englishman told talkSPORT.

“I’ve obviously kept an eye on him and he’s been fantastic.

“But he’s the only real top, top quality winger at the moment of the four or five that they’ve got.”

Following the international break, Chelsea return to action on November 22 when they travel to Burnley.
