An important player who could work against Chelsea in the event of a possible absence. He is a fundamental piece in coach Liam Rosenior’s strategic setup, which will pose a significant challenge for this London derby



The immediate future

"I won't put any pressure on him," commented the Chelsea head coach. It has to be the right thing for him, and he has to feel like he’s in the right place to perform with this team.
