Essien in line for Chelsea return
Michael Essien could be available for Chelsea’s must-win Barclays Premier League game against Tottenham after scans showed he suffered only a minor tendon problem in Saturday’s victory over West Ham.
Essien had to be helped from the field shortly before the hour mark of the Blues’ 3-0 derby win at Stamford Bridge after pulling up with what appeared to be a left knee injury.
