The club was hoping to have a nearly full squad available before the international break, but injuries to key players like Reece James, Levi Colwill, and Noni Madueke have complicated matters.

**Reece James** is dealing with a recurring issue, and while initial assessments suggested a shorter recovery, further evaluations might push back his return. **Levi Colwill** sustained a knock during the match, and the extent of his injury is still being assessed, but he could miss crucial games ahead. Lastly, **Noni Madueke** has been sidelined with a muscular injury, and while he’s making progress, a return before the break is looking unlikely.

With these uncertainties, Chelsea will need to dig deep into their squad depth to navigate the upcoming fixtures.

Noni Madueke has indeed become a key player for Chelsea, and his contributions on the pitch have been significant, especially with his recent goal against Nottingham Forest. His injury raises concerns not just for Chelsea’s upcoming matches but also for the England squad, as they prepare for the Nations League clashes against Greece and Finland. Given his talent, it’s unfortunate that his participation is now uncertain. Hopefully, he has a speedy recovery and can return to both club and international duty soon. Chelsea will certainly miss his attacking flair if he’s sidelined for any length of time.

Levi Colwill’s early exit due to discomfort is concerning, especially given how crucial he has become for Chelsea’s defense. It’s good to hear that he managed to play through the second half, though it’s clear that he was feeling some strain. The fact that he is still expected to join the England squad is a positive sign, but it will depend on the results of further assessments. Maresca’s cautious optimism is reassuring, and hopefully both he and Madueke can recover quickly. Their presence will be important for both Chelsea and the England team in the upcoming matches. Fingers crossed for good news on their fitness!
