There were a few striking things about Chelsea’s team to face Nottingham Forest B on Monday – the start for academy teenager Jesse Derry chief among them.

But just as people were starting to praise interim manager Calum McFarlane, they noticed that neither Alejandro Garnacho nor Pedro Neto were in the team. They both had knocks, and haven’t yet improved:

“Neto and Garnacho are carrying knocks, so it is looking unlikely [they will face Liverpool],” the manager said in his presser today.

“Rob [Sanchez] is not going to be available.”

So that’s our first choice goalkeeper and two more wingers to add to the absentees.

Calum McFarlane could change shape after injuries

Of course, Estevao and are already out, and Derry was injured horrifically at the end of the first half of the Forest game, ruling him out on Saturday too.
