Chelsea defender Toni Rudiger has declared himself fully fit.
The German, 26, has trained all week with no adverse effects on the groin injury which derailed his start to the campaign.
Chelsea go to Watford tomorrow and Rudiger said: It is very long now.
"Even with my cruciate ligament rupture, I was not out for so long.
"I'm itching but very patient."
The centre-half had knee surgery in the summer then hurt his groin slipping on a metal plate beside the touchline at Wolves in his comeback game on September 14.
