Frank Lampard is sure to be a busy man in the next two weeks.
The players may be off on international break with their countries, but the Blues boss will remain at home and pore over a number of issues that need sorting.
An indifferent start to the season will give the Blues legend much to ponder in the coming days, but the realisation that the Champions League is just around the corner will hit him too.
Here we round up the biggest stories doing the rounds at Chelsea in the past 24 hours.
Champions League squad
Chelsea are back in Europe's elite competition this season.
After a year in the Europa League, which proved fruitful, with the Blues winning the trophy in Baku, Azerbaijan last season, beating Arsenal in the final, Frank Lampard will guide his team in the Champions League this time around.
Lampard has huge experience of the competition as a player and won it in 2012, but it will be his first year in the elite tournament from a manager's perspective.
And we now know the players that he will have at his disposal, after their squad was revealed.
And it contained some surprises.
Improvements to be made
Chelsea have had a mixed start to the 2019/20 campaign as they have clinched just five points from four Premier League matches so far.
Even though they were impressive for much of the Super Cup against Liverpool, they ended up losing on penalties and the chance to win silverware ebbed away.
Now we are in the middle of an international break, with several players featuring for their countries and others getting some rest ahead of a busy schedule.
But there have been plenty of positives. And it is those that Frank Lampard will want to draw on when the players return next week.
Here we look at the signs that suggest improvements are just around the corner.
Selection dilemma
Frank Lampard has a number of decisions to make.
Certain players are expected back in action after the international break.
And that in itself is enough to hand the boss a selection headache.
But there is one young player who has also staked his claim for a regular place in the starting lineup.
Twitter statement
Chelsea stars Tammy Abraham and Kurt Zouma have both been the subject of vile racist online abuse this season and it's an issue that has been particularly intense at the start of the 2019/20 season, with Manchester United stars Paul Pogba and Marcus Rashford also receiving racism on Twitter in the past month.
There has been an outcry from footballers, the media and supporters for Twitter and other social media companies to do more to safeguard its consumers against racist abuse.
And Twitter have now responded.
