Chelsea boss Pochettino happy to have Chilwell back

Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino is happy to have Ben Chilwell back.

The fullback returned to training this week after injury.

Ahead of Monday's clash with Everton, Pochettino said: "Yes, not only him but I think there are too many players that we miss, we are missing the competition. But in that personal case, Chilly is training, partial training today with the team, and see if he can be involved with the squad, on the bench for Monday. It's good news, but it's true what you say, he has not played too much this season."

On fitness concerns for Axel Disasi and Enzo Fernandez, he said: "Yes, we will see. They are under assessment. They have different type of issues. We don't believe they are big issues but we will see if they can be available.

"At the moment, they have not trained after Sheffield. We do not know if they can be involved or not for Monday."
