Chelsea handed major injury boost over Reece James and Levi Colwill

  • Reece James and Levi Colwill could return to Chelsea's squad for Monday's match against Nottingham Forest, having both resumed full training after respective injuries.
  • Interim head coach Calum McFarlane expressed caution regarding their immediate return but noted their promising progress.
  • McFarlane defended Enzo Fernandez's trip to Madrid with teammates during time off, viewing it as a positive sign of team unity despite recent internal disciplinary action.
  • Chelsea are in urgent need of a win, having lost their last five league matches without scoring, and their chances of a top-five finish are now highly improbable.
  • McFarlane dismissed suggestions that working conditions at the club would deter top managers, highlighting Chelsea's status as a major club with a winning history.
