Chelsea winger Willian has forced his way into Frank Lampard’s starting line-up this season.
Chelsea fans admit that Willian has proven them wrong this season, as his form has been so good.
Willian has been criticised by sections of Chelsea’s support during his time at Stamford Bridge, and there was a feeling that when Frank Lampard took over that the Brazilian could find it tough to break into the starting line-up.
However, Willian has been in excellent form in recent weeks for Chelsea.
And Blues fans, to their credit, have held their hands up and admitted that Willian is proving them incorrect.
Willian helped Chelsea pick up a 4-1 win over Southampton at the weekend, as Frank Lampard’s men continued their impressive run of form.
The 31-year-old claimed an assist for Mason Mount’s goal against the Saints, with a wonderfully weighted pass, and his work-rate throughout the contest was impressive.
Willian now seems to have moved ahead of many of his rivals for a starting place at Chelsea, and is a key part of Lampard’s line-up.
Chelsea’s win over Southampton has pushed them up to fifth place in the Premier League table.
