Emerson struck the frame of the goal against Manchester United in the opening weekend and also forced David de Gea into a couple of world-class saves in the game.

The Brazilian has a fantastic left foot and can hit a near-perfect volley. While his defending does have room for improvement, his impact in the final third makes him a very important player for the Blues. Against Leicester City though, the Brazilian had one of his quietest nights in a Chelsea shirt.

Emerson struggled to deal with Youri Tielemans and Ayoze Perez on the Chelsea left, who regularly went past him with ease. The Brazilian was also non-existent in the final third and failed to strike up a partnership with Christian Pulisic.

When Leicester City grew in confidence in the game and pressed the home side into a defensive stance, Chelsea tried to play on the counter. Emerson is generally a good outlet during the breaks, however, he could not take advantage of the situation against Leicester.
