Arman Broja, Benoît Badaishile and Reece James will unavailable when Chelsea face Bournemouth on Sunday.
Mauricio Pochettino said he don't know how long Romeo Lavia is out:
"We're really disappointed because he was training really well. In the international break, he twisted his ankle. We hope it's not a big issue. It's a sad situation because he was nearly fit to be involved. We need to wait for the assessment.""We don't know [how long he is out for]. We need to assess."
Mauricio Pochettino on Armando Broja:
"I didn't hear [the Albanian FA's comments]. No, not yet [available]. Badiashile the same situation."
Mauricio Pochettino on Enzo Fernandez starting against AFC Bournemouth:
"Today he was in good mood and energy. He scored against Bolivia. He is in a very good mood. I think he will be ready. Moises, we need to assess as he was a little bit later, but we hope, yes."
Mauricio Pochettino says James has started working the ball again and hopes he will be available before the next international break. Games before then are Villa, Brighton, Fulham and Burnley. Reece James is “Desperate” to help Chelsea, says Mauricio Pochettino:
"He is recovering well. I cannot say if he's close or not as we assess every day. He's really well. He is desperate to help the team again. I hope that it is close, and he can be available before the next international break."
Mauricio Pochettino:
"When you analyze the five games, I think we deserved to win, but we didn't for different details and circumstances. You need to be perfect in performance. It's only a matter of time. We have very good players and a very good squad."
"The players will perform with time."
Mauricio Pochettino on not being in UCL:
"In the circumstances, it's better for us as we have 11/12 injured players [laughs]. The squad is very short at the moment. But obviously, the objective for Chelsea is always to be in the competition."
Mauricio Pochettino:
"The team's performance was good in the first month. We didn't get the points that we deserved. The players believe in the way we want to play. In the data we are very good... what we are missing is to score goals, one of the most important things."
Mauricio Pochettino:
"At the moment we are playing well, we dominate games, but in the end, we need to be more naughty and aggressive - in a good way, not to punch someone! Not be nice, but we need to increase our way to compete in every single moment."
"We cannot blame last season. We need to blame ourselves. We need to find solutions in ourselves. We cannot blame the past. It's a new era, everything is new."
"I want to win. We want to win. The players need to feel that pressure. It's too early to give up or not achieve the objectives we set at the beginning. It's about keeping going and believing."
Mauricio Pochettino on Trevor Chalobah being part of Chelsea plans:
"Of course, yes. I am Chelsea, I am the coach, his future is going to be involved in my plan. No one is going to decide for me."
"Chalobah and all the players in the squad are in my plans. Then to play is my decision. He is a Chelsea player. He needs to recover as soon as possible. I believe he can be selected. He will have the same chances..."
Mauricio Pochettino on AFC Bournemouth being must win:
"Why you say must win? Every game must win. If you don't win, problems. That's obvious."
