Chelsea have had a much needed period of rest after a busy Christmas and New Years schedule.

The Blues face League Two side Morecambe, and Frank Lampard is likely to field a mixed team of fringe and some academy stars to get the job done.
His squad trained yesterday after resting for the last two days, and youngsters such as 16-year old Jude Soonsup-Bell joined in training ahead of a possible debut on Sunday.
