Chelsea injury update: Reece James, Emmanuel Emegha, Jamie Gittens latest news and return dates

Chelsea are still sweating on the fitness of Reece James ahead of their clash with Everton this weekend. The influential Blues captain was the headline absentee for Saturday’s return to Premier League action, when struggling Bournemouth were thrashed 5-1 at Stamford Bridge . However, there was far better news elsewhere as Joao Pedro and Moises Caicedo were both passed fit to start after respective knee and calf problems - likewise Cole Palmer after his withdrawal from England duty at the start of an extended three-week international break.
