That's not an injury crisis at Chelsea – That's some kind of curse in disguise!
Enzo and Disasi entered the blue's injury list and the number now has... double digits! It's not an excuse for Pochettino this year, it's a big and painful reality. The problems are endless and the full medical record is the biggest proof.

The Argentinian manager of Chelsea hopes that by Monday night and the match with Everton there will have been some changes. Some positive news.
This has to be mainly about Sanchez and Sterling who have a virus, because with the rest of the missing players the situation pure... desperation.
Pochettino is struggling to create new positive habits in building this team and the bad news keep coming from the team doctors and the physios. So he is... helpless.
Let's see how the difficult situation at Chelsea has turned out...
-Ben Chilwell: Does part of training, he is not ready
-Axel Disassi: Injured, the medical team is monitoring him closely
-Enzo Fernandes: Injured, the medical team is monitoring him closely
-Robert Sanchez: Absent due to infection

-Wesley Fofana: Follows a recovery programme
-Rhys Jace: Follows a recovery programme
-Romeo Lavia: Follows a recovery programme
-Christopher Enkunku: Follows a recovery programme
