Chelsea boss Villas-Boas: Torres chance will come

Chelsea boss Andre Villa-Boas has urged his fringe players to be ready after victory over Wolves.

Fernando Torres found himself on the bench for the fourth successive game and Romelu Lukaku was not in the squad. Didier Drogba and Juan Mata, meanwhile, started their third game in seven days.

"I am sure Fernando and the others will get a chance in the future," said Villas-Boas.

"It's not about individual performances. During the African Nation' s Cup in January we will have Lukaku and Anelka hopefully."
