Fernandez and two other players tipped to start vs Arsenal

Ahead of their weekend game vs Arsenal, Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino in a pre-match statement has tipped Enzo Fernandez, Moises Caicedo and Malo Gusto to be involved.

The trio who were involved in games for their home countries during the international break have arrived back at Cobham.

‘Enzo trained yesterday. Caicedo arrived yesterday in the afternoon and was checked with the doctor and was in a very good state. They both trained with us with the group and I think they are ready,’ Pochettino revealed.

The Blues manager also spoke about right-back Gusto, who made his senior international debut for France last week.

Gusto is available to play for Chelsea again after completing a three-match ban in a game against Aston Villa.

‘He is really young but is a great talent, maybe tomorrow he has the possibility to play,’ Pochettino said.

‘It’s difficult to judge because when a 19-year-old comes from a different league like France, he needs to adapt to a different club, a club like Chelsea whose history is to win. It’s not about only competing or playing football, it is about winning,” he added.
