π£οΈ Xabi Alonso ahead of Chelseaβs match against @Liverpool_Always [A] in the Carabao Cup Round of 16:
βJoao Pedro has an injury on his thigh and he is going to be out for a few weeks. Letβs see how many. We donβt want to predict on that, but heβs not ready for the next games.
βWe will miss him, but we will have to be ready to deal with the injury and to be competitive and to try to win games with the players that we have available. We are starting tomorrow against Liverpool, a cup game. This is the situation.
βWe are ready to fight for it and ready to prove that we can show the level.β
βEmmanuel [Emegha] is in the squad.
βItβs important that we have him available because he has special qualities.
βHe has to feel fully fit. Heβs been training for the last couple of weeks, 10 days, in a good way that allows him to build a strong base for his fitness and now gradually we want to see him and maybe tomorrow he has the chance to play.β

π¨ Xabi Alonso really trusts Pedro Neto on the right, and moving him centrally means giving someone else that role. It is still early days but he does not appear to have too much faith in other wingers at his disposal in Estevao Willian, Geovany Quenda and Jamie Gittens (who is nursing an ankle injury).
Marco Palestra, who has just returned from a quad injury, is arguably a stronger contender.
