Graham Potter's mini-injury crisis at Chelsea has already created problems for the new manager, but his ingenuity has proven to be an effective way of overcoming the stresses.
Having come into the job and taking over with N'Golo Kante and Edouard Mendy unavailable due to injuries picked up under Thomas Tuchel, that's two first team stars out of contention straightaway. He has also had to balance the return of Mateo Kovacic and careful management of Thiago Silva, 38, and Wesley Fofana, relatively fresh off the back of a long-term injury.
In the four weeks since his appointment Mendy has returned, but is yet to play, Kovacic is getting back to full fitness and Silva has been a first choice other then when illness kept him out against Wolves.
