Emiliano Martínez has a concussion. Chelsea's Xabi Alonso said he left conscious and is having precautionary hospital tests: "I saw just one clip and we need to wait now." Pep Chavarría felt something in training and has a test on 18 October. Malo Gusto missed the game ill.
Jorrel Hato, in for Pep Chavarría after what Xabi Alonso called his "little problem", got on the end of Morgan Rogers' pass for Chelsea's first goal in a clean-sheet win at Everton. The Chelsea manager said Hato "did really well" in the first game since.
Merlin Röhl started for Everton ahead of Tyrique George, Brennan Johnson and Tyler Dibling to face Chelsea's Pep Chavarría, but David Moyes said "when we got here he wasn't playing". Röhl did better at right back, he said. Moyes hadn't seen Emiliano Martínez's injury.
