Chelsea manager Rossinier reports on the injuries of Fernandez and Esterwyn.

Following Chelsea's 0-1 defeat to Manchester United in the Premier League, manager Liam Rossinier addressed the injuries suffered by Enzo Fernandes and Estewan Willian.

18-year-old Brazilian starlet Esteban made his first start in the match, and his early shot grazed the post, nearly changing the score. However, an unexpected incident occurred just 16 minutes into the game.

Rossinier revealed after the match that Esteban had unfortunately strained his leg muscle during a very dangerous one-on-one sprint. Rossinier said, "He was in tears at halftime; this accident was undoubtedly a huge blow to him. We can only hope that this young player can recover from his injury as soon as possible and return to the field."

Meanwhile, Fernandez, who missed two games due to injury, returned to the field for this match, but after playing 88 minutes of intense play, he was also replaced by Romeo Lavia due to physical discomfort.

Speaking about Fernandez's condition, Rossinier pointed out that the problem seemed to be in his calf: "I hope it's just a cramp caused by overwork."

“He gave his all for the team tonight, which is exactly what a player of his caliber should do. The team doctor is currently working hard to treat him, as we desperately need him to be fit for Tuesday's game against Brighton.”

This defeat, coupled with the injuries to two key players, has undoubtedly worsened the team's situation. The medical team's assessments during the upcoming packed schedule will directly impact the team's next lineup decisions.
