Antonio Conte’s urged Willian to break back into Chelsea’s starting line-up by re-finding his form after a difficult few weeks for the Brazilian forward.
Willian’s mother passed away in October and the winger’s yet to feature for the club again since her passing.
The Blues have been in sensational form over the last two months, winning six league matches on the bounce and keeping clean sheets in each one.
Conte’s side face Tottenham at Stamford Bridge on Saturday and the Italian’s told Willian he must recapture his form to break back into the side.
Conte says Willian has been unlucky in recent weeks, but is an important player for the Blues and he counts on him a lot.

‘He has come back,’ said Conte.
‘Willy is an important player for us. I count a lot on him.
‘Now it’s important to find good form because in this period he was unlucky. You know why.’
