Oliseh Hails Chelsea’s Caicedo and Wonderkid Estevao After Stunning Win Over Liverpool

Former Super Eagles midfielder, Sunday Oliseh, has praised Chelsea stars Moises Caicedo and Willian Estevao for their outstanding performances in the Blues’ dramatic 2-1 victory over Premier League champions Liverpool at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

Chelsea put up one of their best displays under Enzo Maresca, with Caicedo opening the scoring in the 14th minute after unleashing a thunderous long-range strike that sent the Stamford Bridge crowd wild.

Liverpool’s Cody Gakpo equalized with a sharp finish midway through the second half, but teenage sensation Willian Estevao — one of Chelsea’s brightest young talents — stole the show with a stoppage-time winner, sealing all three points for the home side.

Reacting to the game, Sunday Oliseh could not hide his admiration for the duo, particularly Estevao, whose flair and confidence have already begun to turn heads across Europe.

“Rarely lately have I gotten the opportunity to say this, but Chelsea were impressive today,” Oliseh wrote on X.

“Loved Caicedo’s thunderstrike for 1st goal and… this Estevao player has everything to be a superstar! Mama mia, what a player! E wan kill Liverpool left back, oh my God.”

Opinion: Estevao’s Rise Is the Spark Chelsea Have Been Missing

For months, Chelsea fans have waited for signs that their star-studded project under new management was finally coming together — and Saturday’s performance might just be that turning point.

While Caicedo’s screamer reminded everyone why the club spent big to bring him from Brighton, it was Willian Estevao who truly stole the spotlight. The 17-year-old Brazilian dazzled with flair, maturity, and courage that belied his age. His late winner wasn’t just about scoring — it symbolized a Chelsea side rediscovering belief.

Oliseh’s excitement mirrors what most fans felt watching Estevao tear into Liverpool’s defense — a sense that Chelsea might finally have unearthed a true gem.

If Estevao continues to grow under Maresca’s guidance, he could well become the next great Brazilian export to light up the Premier League. And for Caicedo, this could mark the start of a redemption arc after early struggles.

For once, Chelsea didn’t just win — they thrilled. And if performances like this continue, Stamford Bridge might once again become the fortress it once was.
