🗣️ Reece James: “I’m doing okay, been better and also been worse. Another challenge ahead accepted. Eventually I'll come out on top. Against all odds.”

Next up, back in action as we travel to the King Power Stadium to face newly promoted Leicester City! 👀🔵

Leicester City manager Steve Cooper on facing Cole Palmer:

🗣️ "The threat that he can have and the impact that he’s constantly having in games. But that’s the Premier League. You come up against these teams and these talents week in and week out, really. We have to be aware of it, of course."

‼️ Enzo Maresca's choices could be complicated by Romeo Lavia's fitness after he didn't feature for Belgium due to injury, when this lunch-time kick-off already means minimal recovery time for other key midfielders.

‼️A source close to Nkunku did suggest the forward is not too happy with how things are going right now.

It should be pointed out that the source also insisted that Nkunku has not made any complaints himself to the club.

Chelsea still regard Nkunku as an important member of the squad and with so many matches remaining, believe there are plenty of opportunities for him to make his mark.

Chelsea do not want to sell. It would take an extraordinary offer, perhaps in excess of what they paid for him, to make them think about changing their minds.

Reece James will have a scan on Saturday to determine how long he is likely to be ruled out for. Chelsea are ‘doing everything they can to support him’ as they wait for the final results, which are expected next week.
