Chelsea gets Much Needed Boost
Chelsea have received a timely boost with the news that first-choice goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has returned to full training after a lengthyinjury layoff.
The Belgian underwent surgery on his knee back in September, but could return for the club's clash with Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge in a fortnight's time, per the Evening Standard.
Summer addition Asmir Begovic has stood in for the former Atletico Madrid man in what has been a disastrous start to the campaign for the Blues.
Jose Mourinho's side are without a win in over a month having lost seven of their opening 12 games in the Premier League, and the news of Courtois' potential return will hand the club a much needed boost heading into Saturday's game with Norwich at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea lost Petr Cech to London rivals Arsenal in the summer, and the Czech stopper has been in fine form for the high-flying Gunners, who sit second in the table, 14 places above Mourinho's struggling Blues.
