He is yet to start for the Blues, not even in the Carabao Cup. In fact, the winger has not featured in that competition yet.<\/p>\n<p>Quenda has not thrown his toys out of the pram, though, acknowledging that Chelsea have great players in his position and that he cannot do much to change his situation.<\/p>\n<section class=\"grv-talking-point\" data-trigger=\"vue-sidebar\" data-story-id=\"5a9c74ee-9dfb-4c17-80a3-f12c2bcadb5e\" data-story-name=\"Talk Chelsea\" data-comment-id=\"dbf0a8e6-4724-45e8-afc0-31b82a1e64a6\" data-story-slug=\"talk-chelsea\">\n<div class=\"grv-talking-point__inner\">\n<header class=\"grv-talking-point__header\">  <\/header>\n<div class=\"grv-talking-point__content\">\n<div class=\"grv-talking-point__cta\">\n<div class=\"grv-talking-point__title-wrap\">\n<div class=\"grv-talking-point__title-content\">\n<h3 class=\"grv-talking-point__title\">Which former Chelsea player would you add to the current team, and why? \ud83e\udd14<\/h3>\n<p class=\"grv-talking-point__subtitle\">You can choose anyone!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"grv-talking-point__embed\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 991px) 100vw, 800px\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn1.thechelseachronicle.com\/uploads\/17\/2026\/10\/question-819x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-386951\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn1.thechelseachronicle.com\/uploads\/17\/2026\/10\/question-819x1024.jpeg 819w, https:\/\/cdn1.thechelseachronicle.com\/uploads\/17\/2026\/10\/question-240x300.jpeg 240w, https:\/\/cdn1.thechelseachronicle.com\/uploads\/17\/2026\/10\/question-768x960.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/cdn1.thechelseachronicle.com\/uploads\/17\/2026\/10\/question-912x1140.jpeg 912w, https:\/\/cdn1.thechelseachronicle.com\/uploads\/17\/2026\/10\/question-600x750.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/cdn1.thechelseachronicle.com\/uploads\/17\/2026\/10\/question.jpeg 1080w\"\/><\/div>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p>Speaking ahead of Portugal Under-21s\u2019 match against the Czech Republic on Tuesday, he said via <a href=\"https:\/\/maisfutebol.iol.pt\/sub-21\/selecao\/quenda-e-a-pouca-utilizacao-no-chelsea-sao-decisoes-do-mister#goog_rewarded\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Maisfutebol<\/a>: \u201cThere\u2019s nothing I can do about what I can\u2019t control, but I always give my best to try and play, and obviously there are great players at the club. And those are the manager\u2019s decisions; I just have to keep giving my all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What Quenda still has going for him is his versatility. The former Sporting star can play as a left winger, right winger or wing-back. That versatility could help him earn some minutes later in the season when Chelsea start to pick up injuries, which always seem inevitable with the Blues.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thechelseachronicle.com\/news\/sources-close-to-geovany-quenda-explain-whats-happening-at-chelsea-after-limited-opportunities\/\">Sources close to Quenda do not seem to be too worried<\/a> about his situation, adamant that he is still going through an adaptation period at Chelsea. The Portugal Under-21 international will be hoping for some action when the Premier League returns this weekend, though.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea take on Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge, hoping to bounce back from their humiliating 3-0 defeat to Brentford just before the international break. In a boost for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thechelseachronicle.com\/tag\/xabi-alonso\/\">Xabi Alonso<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thechelseachronicle.com\/news\/the-seven-chelsea-players-poised-to-return-from-injury-in-time-for-bournemouth-clash\/\">several Chelsea players could return from injury<\/a>, including Moises Caicedo. His absence has been a real blow for the team.<\/p>\n<p>Alonso will be expected to continue with his attack of Cole Palmer, Morgan Rogers and Joao Pedro if Pedro recovers from his own injury in time. It would see Quenda start on the bench again unless Alonso decides to use him at wing-back.<\/p>\n<div class=\"see-more-wrapper lazy see-more-open see-more-blank extra-content\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.thechelseachronicle.com\/news\/geovany-quenda-speaks-out-after-making-just-two-appearances-for-chelsea\/none\" data-type=\"subscribe\">\n<div class=\"see-more subscribe\">\n<figure class=\"newsletter\">\n<div><svg class=\"loading\" width=\"118\" height=\"36\" viewbox=\"0 0 118 36\"><use href=\"#dots-svg\"\/><\/svg><\/p>\n<div class=\"signup\"><span class=\"hf\">Join Our Newsletter<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Receive a digest of our best Chelsea content each week direct to your mailbox<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-follow\">\n<div class=\"article-sharing google-follow is-native contentpass\"> <a class=\"fw\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?q=thechelseachronicle.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"28\" height=\"28\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thechelseachronicle.com\/wp-content\/themes\/grv-media\/img\/google-discover.svg\" alt=\"\"\/> <span>Add to Preferred Sources<\/span> <\/a> <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><script>grvLoadAnalytics = () => {(function(d,s,i){var f=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],j=d.createElement(s);j.async=true;j.src=\"https:\/\/www.googletagmanager.com\/gtag\/js?id=\"+i;f.parentNode.insertBefore(j,f);})(document,'script','G-E7VRWQHDP6');(function(d,s,i){if(!\/callback=in\/.test(window.location.search)){var e=d.createElement(s);var n=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];e.type=\"text\/javascript\";e.async=true;e.src=\"https:\/\/static.chartbeat.com\/js\/chartbeat.js\";n.parentNode.insertBefore(e,n);}})(document,\"script\",\"G-E7VRWQHDP6\");(function(){let s=document.createElement(\"script\");s.async=true;s.dataset.domain=\"thechelseachronicle.com\/MFj4XQ\";s.src=\"https:\/\/api.publytics.net\/js\/script.manual.ping.min.js\";document.getElementsByTagName(\"head\")[0].appendChild(s);})();if(!\/callback=in\/.test(window.location.search)){setTimeout(function(){!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,document,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');fbq('init','663509325503632');fbq('track','PageView');fbq('track','ViewContent',{content_name:'Geovany Quenda speaks out after making just two appearances for Chelsea',content_category:'News',content_ids:[386982,\"geovany-quenda\"],content_type:'post',});},3000);}}<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thechelseachronicle.com\/news\/geovany-quenda-speaks-out-after-making-just-two-appearances-for-chelsea\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Add to Preferred Sources Geovany Quenda was one player who impressed for Chelsea during their&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6856,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6855","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-chelsea"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/footballars.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6855","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/footballars.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/footballars.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/footballars.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/footballars.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6855"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/footballars.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6855\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/footballars.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/6856"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/footballars.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6855"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/footballars.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6855"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/footballars.xyz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6855"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
