Ben Chilwell has sent a message to Reece James after the right wing-back made his return from injury in the Carabao Cup final on Sunday afternoon.
James had not played a minute of football for the Blues in 2022 after injuring his hamstring against Brighton in December and the club's form has suffered as a result.
Thomas Tuchel's side had become reliant on the output of the 22-year-old this campaign as he racked up four goals and five assists in just 16 top-flight appearances.
