The Blues face a similar situation to the one they had in 2014 as they lost one of their most popular players, with Juan Mata moving to Old Trafford
With Pedro in such good form at Chelsea, Willian finds himself in a situation not dissimilar to that of Juan Mata's back in 2013-14 – and yet again it could be Manchester United who take advantage.
Mata, despite being a fan favourite at Stamford Bridge, was ostracised by Jose Mourinho - now the Spaniard's boss at Old Trafford - and the Portuguese might this time be the benefactor of Willian's comparable scenario.
Once one of the first names on the Blues' teamsheet, the Brazilian's status as a starter has been put under threat by Pedro's best form since his time at Barcelona, while Eden Hazard's displays have made him impossible to dislodge.

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti quiet over Luis Suarez links
Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has refused to be drawn on the club's reported interest in Luis Suarez, but has confirmed rising star Alvaro Morata is set to leave the European champions this summer.
Real rejected an offer from Arsenal to take academy product Morata on loan last January, but Ancelotti has explained that the striker, who made just three league starts last season, is keen to find another club in pursuit of first team football.
"The player has decided to leave in search of more minutes and the club has agreed it," said the Italian coach at the presentation of his new website.
In addition to the Gunners, Italian champions Juventus and Bundesliga side Wolfsburg are believed to be chasing Morata, but Real Madrid are keen to include a buy-back clause in any potential deal.
Ancelotti appeared to confirm this by saying: "If he gets the chance to play it will be good for him to have those opportunities for a year."

Galatasaray confirm appointment of Roberto Mancini as manager
Roberto Mancini has been appointed as the new manager of Galatasaray on a three-year contract, the Turkish club have confirmed.
The Italian's turbulent spell in charge at Manchester City ended when he was sacked in May just a year after leading them to the Premier League title.
The 48-year-old will succeed Fatih Terim, who was fired last week after he failed to agree terms on a new two-year contract.

Stan Kroenke admits Arsenal were never going to land Liverpool striker Luis Suarez
Arsenal majority shareholder Stan Kroenke has conceded they were never going to land Liverpool striker Luis Suarez this summer.
Arsenal made Suarez one of their top targets during the summer transfer window as Arsene Wenger looked to bolster his attacking options.
The player indicated he would be interested in a move to Arsenal to enable him to play in the UEFA Champions League, but Liverpool rejected two offers for the Uruguayan from the Gunners.

6 Reasons WHY Liverpool Must Re-Sign Xabi Alonso in January
Liverpool must bring back club-hero Xabi Alonso in the January Transfer window. According to latest reports from The Metro, the Reds boss has been given a green signal to go for the pass-master of Real Madrid, who is in his final year of his contract and an extension is looking unlikely.
Here are six reasons why Alonso should be signed in January:
World-Class
At 31, Alonso has plenty to offer to any football club. Simply because, he is world class and to be honest he is still better than a lot of midfielders in the Premier League. Secondly who doesn’t want to add a quality player to the ranks. No wonder, why Chelsea and Juventus are so eager to land him.

Tottenham tracking the prodigiously gifted PSG youngster
The new French talent that is making heads turn in European football is the 18 year old PSG midfielder Adrien Rabiot.
Rabiot, till recently involved in the youth setup of PSG, has had a sudden rise in his career and is now a regular starter in the French first division. While he had started off with the PSG first team, presence of a galaxy of big names forced the hand of the erstwhile PSG manager Carlo Ancelotti to send the midfielder on loan to Toulouse – by no means a very inferior name side.
Rabiot has attracted attention of bigger lights of European clubs through his energetic displays for Toulouse. According to several media sources, Tottenham Hotspur are the club most interested in acquiring the youngster and given that the PSG contract of Rabiot is set to run out in June 2015 (less than 2 years), it can be easily surmised that Spurs won’t be the only ones in the scene.
