Chris Nkumku will return from his knee injury in the second week of November and start playing for the Chelsea squad in the same manner that he did in the team's preseason games.
For the Start, Nkunku and Jackson will be playing separately in matches until the best-performed player takes the front position.
Pochettino has plenty of work to do in utilizing the Chelsea player in terms of finishing and their defense to achieve the goal of reaching the top 4 spot this season
Chelsea are in a long crisis that lasts since the past season and they are trying to end their crisis. They bought many young star players and I believe it is their plan very long term growth of the club. They want to build up a competitive squad for their club in next several seasons. A biggest problem in Chelsea latest season is they don't have stability for their coach position that causes of lot of chaos in the club.
It began with the invasion of Russia into Ukraine but even years before that war as their previous President and owner, Abramovich, was under radar of UK. government and even got some restrictions before the war. The war only makes things worse and worse for Chelsea and a sudden change of ownership results in some big changes in their clubs. Their poor performances in the last two seasons are from many factors, not only players themselves.
Nkunku and Jackson looks to be promising players for Chelsea next two or three seasons but they must help the club to end the crisis in this season. It will be better for Chelsea to start a next season with better sentiment, less stress and pressure.
