A 23-man Chelsea squad arrived in Dublin this evening ahead of the pre-season fixture against Arsenal at the Aviva Stadium.
Included in the travelling party was Ruben Loftus-Cheek, who returned to training yesterday following his involvement at the World Cup with England.
Maurizio Sarri’s side opened our pre-season campaign with a 1-0 win over Perth Glory in Australia before beating Inter Milan on penalties, after a 1-1 draw, in Nice on Saturday.
Chelsea also met Arsenal as part of our pre-season preparations a year ago, in Beijing, with the Blues running out 3-0 winners.

Don't ever forget that Morata was at home in Turin Italy when playing for Juventus, he's in love with the Italian Culture so it takes time to adjust to the English culture and football just like Bakayoko he needs time as he also came from a nasty injury and had an operation same as Ross Barkley. These players need time and patience and they'll come good!

I'd like to say Hazard and Kante are not playing because we can beat the arse without them, but the truth is they are on leave after the World Cup still.
