It's two weeks until the Premier League returns and Graham Potter has now had the same amount of time beginning to get his Chelsea side up to speed as the World Cup continues in Qatar.
Monday sees the Blues squad that travelled to Abu Dhabi and record a narrow defeat to Aston Villa return to the UK ahead of training on Wednesday, when Chelsea's international stars who made early exits from Qatar 2022 are set to arrive at Cobham.
Potter and his coaching staff have had somewhat of a makeshift squad since their return, with no shortage of development players making up the numbers. However, the time has remained productive for the group as they build up to their return to action against Bournemouth later in December, with 12 academy players experiencing first team life for an extended period for the first time.
