Chelsea vs Everton: 3 things to look forward to | Premier League 2019-20

#3 Billy Gilmour's Premier League Debut

Chelsea's golden boy

There is one particular name going around in the footballing circles in the league. This week, Billy Gilmour took the world by storm as he managed to dominate Liverpool and dictate the pace of the play from the base of midfield. The videos of his performance have gone viral as he won player of the match against Liverpool and made the likes of Fabinho look silly.

Against Liverpool, Gilmour started in the base of midfield and looked involved from the first whistle. He pulled the strings against a side like Liverpool and showed how he could thrive in a deeper midfield role in contrast to players like Jorginho. Gilmour's passing abilities had shades of Cesc Fàbregas while his ball-playing confidence had the essence of Mateo Kovačić.

With numerous injuries, Chelsea's squad is extremely limited at the moment. Moreover, Jorginho is serving an extremely unnecessary and avoidable two-game ban. This essentially guarantees that Gilmour will be starting against Everton. The media and the fanbase are currently drooling over the Scotsman at the moment and expectations are extremely high.

Gilmour has shown a wide range of technical and mental capabilities against Liverpool. The Blues could witness Gilmour's league debut as they press on to finish in the top four.
