If there’s one thing that can get Chelsea fans to break a sweat these days it’s news about Reece James missing training – so when we heard he wasn’t joining the team on the flight to the USA we really panicked.
Luckily it seems it was just a sickness bug he had, and footage released just now by Chelsea shows him joining his teammates in Philadelphia.
Of course, all our timings are messed up – this was actually last night UK time, so he’s actually already had one session with the group – presumably a very gentle warm down after the game.
You can see him in the clip embedded here:

Malo Gusto looked good in the game against Wrexham, and hopefully his presence this season combined with our lack of European football will mean that James is able to take the whole season very cautiously in terms of minutes played.
He needs to make it through a full campaign without serious injury, and this is his best chance to do that.
Fantastic click-bait
