Droy was my hero Report post Posted September 11 51 minutes ago, Sciatika said: Does anyone know who is fit? Physio room says we have NINE players with injuries RLC, CHO, James, Ginkel, Kovacic, Kante, Rudiger, Pedro & Emerson. I think that was true for the last game, but at a rough guess 5 of those should be available for the next game, and possibly even CHO too. I feel sorry for Physioroom, Chelsea make a habit of saying very very little about injured players - perhaps going back to when we have had tiny squads and players were being picked with injuries (which may be the case again now). It is only when SFL gets asked a direct question does any news come out, and I'm not sure that can always be relied upon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Physio room says we have NINE players with injuries RLC, CHO, James, Ginkel, Kovacic, Kante, Rudiger, Pedro & Emerson. Hopefully Emerson will be fit as he has looked very good so far this season. He came off after about 5 mins for Italy, it looked one of those innocuous injuries where a player can be out for 6 months from it, but I believe it was just a precautionary substitution and no damage done. Hopefully Rudiger, Kante and Kova are all available to put back in. Maybe James at RB and Azpi at LB if Emerson is struggling and James is ready. It would be a toss up at LB between Azpi and Alonso if we need to make that call. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Droy was my hero Report post Posted September 11 https://www.101greatgoals.com/news/callum-hudson-odoi-set-to-play-for-chelsea-u23-vs-brighton-reece-james-injury-latest/ so rumours are that CHO will play an U23 game on Friday, while James might be ready for LC home to Grimsby on 25th - 2 weeks today. Good choices of games to start playing for both of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeBoeufsGolfBall Report post Posted September 13 Kante out again tomorrow apparently. Seems like everyone else is fit and available, other than the lads playing U23 tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

charlie_sw69 Report post Posted September 13 Yes I thought Kante would be back. Rudiger is in the squad. Frank said he hasn't decided whether he will start in his press conf. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
