“It is clear we need them! Rudiger reveals the two players who will make big differences in Chelsea squad

The Premier League should have absolutely called the game off between Wolves and Chelsea. However, the day before when it was clear that Chelsea were going to be returning more positive Covid-19 tests and in the end they had 7.

This forced N’Golo Kante and Mateo Kovacic to both play having only just returned from injury, and for Kovacic having only just returned from actually having Covid-19.

It was disgraceful from the league and this could have and still might have a dangerous detrimental effect on these players forced to play whilst unfit.

But on they went and in the end it was very disappointing to come away with just a point. But defender Antonio Rudiger has reiterated the importance of both Kante and Kovacic via the Chelsea website after the game.

Rudiger said: “It is not easy for him, he has been out for a number of time.” 

“The same for Kova. They came in and were lively.

“That is very important for us because it is clear that we need them.”
