Graham Potter's access to a select group of Chelsea players over the international break may well help him going into the first Premier League match of his tenure at Stamford Bridge.
The new manager was left with only a handful of first team stars to work with throughout the week and will be hoping that the week off he allowed them has paid off plus the additional time early this week in training whilst teammates are on international duty.
Included in this are Edouard Mendy, who is returning from injury, N'Golo Kante likewise, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Trevoh Chalobah.
