Despite the enormous sums of money spent in the summer and the hiring of former Tottenham Hotspur and Paris Saint Germain coach Mauricio Pochettino, it’s been another miserable season for Chelsea Football Club.
That said, while the performances have been far from ideal, the West Londoners have been incredibly unlucky with injuries.
According to GIVEMESPORT, they have lost the fifth most days through injuries this season, a staggering 1443 days. There were a few more names added to the Blues’ injury list following their 2-2 draw with Aston Villa on Saturday, including veteran centre-back Thiago Silva and Axel Disasi.
Therefore, with few other options, Pochettino must be brave and hand an academy graduate just his second start of the season.
