Estevao ran back through Chelsea’s half after Iliman Ndiaye's goal, beyond Robert Sanchez, to pull the ball from the net, and ran all the way back to the centre circle to place it in front of Cole Palmer.
The 18-year-old, who has only been at Chelsea since last summer and back on the pitch for just six minutes after more than a month out injured, was the player trying hardest to rally his team.
When Chelsea needed leadership and unity most against Everton, there was none to be seen on the pitch at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.

ALT Photo: Estevao of Chelsea reacts after the team's defeat in the Premier League match between Everton and Chelsea at Hill Dickinson Stadium Excerpt from The Athletic: Ten Chelsea players stood still, hands on their hips and heads tipped towards the ground or up at the sky. Iliman Ndiaye sprinted with his team-mates to the stands, having just nestled the pick of Everton’s three unanswered goals into the top-right corner of Robert Sanchez's goal. The only Chelsea player really moving was Estevao.
I don’t mind this at all. Nkunku’s path is a bit to the team is more clear, hopefully that reinvigorates him. Joao’s wages, though cut, still significant. No buy option, reassess situation in the summer.
🚨 AC Milan reach verbal agreement with Chelsea to sign Joao Felix. #DeadlineDay deal for 25yo attacker straight loan, no buy option. Portugal forward’s full #CFC wages covered + #ACM to pay loan fee package worth €5.5m. W/ @JamesHorncastle @TheAthleticFC nytimes.com/athletic/6094003…

I really like this, but is Reece ready to get back to those grueling sprints?

What the fuck?
🚨💣 Real Madrid statement after boycotting the Ballon d'Or ceremony:
"If the award criteria do not designate Vinicius as the winner, these same criteria should designate Carvajal as the winner. Since this has not been the case, it is clear that the UEFA Ballon d'Or does not respect Real Madrid. And Real Madrid will not go where it is not respected."
