From the source
Xabi Alonso’s reason for naming Estevao in the starting XI against Manchester United has emerged, and it is embarrassing for Michael Carrick and his players.
So far this term, Chelsea boss Alonso has come under criticism for his limited use of Estevao, who joined the Blues under a cloud of hype and expectation.
Last month’s start against United represented his first in the Premier League all season; he justified the selection by tearing Diogo Dalot apart and acting as his side’s primary attacking threat.
