“We’ve tried to manage him, but he’s never played three games in a week. He’s had to have a build-up that I think has been good for him. That’s why it’s very frustrating. It’s a blow for us and a blow for him,” said Graham Potter.
While many suspected Potter to field a weaker side after the knockout berth was already assured, Chelsea fielded their strongest Starting XI that ensured a 2-1 win over Dinamo Zagreb.

As for the England National team, Gareth Southgate faces a major injury concern in the defense. Right back Reece James is out for 7-8 weeks with a knee injury while now the injury concern of Ben Chilwell makes things much worse for the three lions. The same can be said about Graham Potter who is missing both his side backs.
As for England, the return of Kyle Walker is yet to be finalized. The Manchester City defender is most likely to recover just in time for the Qatar World Cup. Gareth Southgate would be hoping that Chilwell’s injury is nothing major and he achieves full fitness for the upcoming mega competition.
