Former Chelsea boss John Hollins says FIFA's transfer ban is a "mind blowing" dilemma for new manager Carlo Ancelotti to maneuver.
"He's now got to go through the competitions including the Champions League, which is what he was brought for. If he picks up any bad injuries in this first period he's going to need to replace them. Well, he can't. So he'll have to bring back the young players," Hollins told the Guardian of Chelsea's current loanees.
"They [could] be knackered or injured. It's a minefield.
"He may have to say I've come here to win the Champions League and use all the senior players to win the competition. He's a got a massive selection problem. He has his first Champions League game coming up on 15 September [against Porto at Stamford Bridge] so it'll be interesting to see what players he uses."
