Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino has hinted he plans to introduce more youngsters this season.
Pochettino admits he's been impressed by the academy talent called into his squad for international week.
He explained: "We enjoyed [the international break] a lot because we discovered many young talents from the academy. We trained with 10, 11, sometimes 14 of the young kids that was very good.
"Today was the first day we are back, it's why I'm late, after the international break we have more than half hour meetings and training, only today we have the full squad to prepare for the game.
"It was a shame because we had momentum but we didn't take advantage of that. We need to build the momentum again. I think we are confident, I think the team is confident. We're still fighting, still struggling with injuries as a team. We're working hard to find solutions and we are in a positive way."
On preparations for Saturday's clash with Arsenal, Pochettino added: "We need to assess Axel [Disasi] and Nicolas Jackson and assess Reece [James]. [Armando] Broja is out, he has a bit of irritation on he knee but it's the other knee, not the one that was a problem in the past. We have a few players we have to assess to see if they will be available or not tomorrow.
"Benoit Badiashile could be available also on the bench. Reece was training good the last few days, now we need to have a talk with the medical staff and decide if he can be part of the squad tomorrow.
"Enzo [Fernandez] trained yesterday, he arrived in the afternoon and had a check in with the doctor and was in a good state. He also trained with the group today."
