Christopher Nkunku is close to making a full recovery after suffering a major knee injury in pre-season.
The forward could even feature at the weekend when Chelsea travel to Newcastle United in the Premier League.
Meanwhile, some Stamford Bridge fans believe it's Conor Gallagher who should make way for Nkunku in some matches.
scottaz88 (all reactions via /r/ChelseaFC): "He comes in for either Gallagher against bus parkers or for Jackson in big games with Gallagher in his current role."
Starn_Badger: "Gallagher is brilliant against these top teams, but probably less useful against those low blocks we can't play through."
BallsDeep69____: "Against bus parkers when we don't need Gallagher as much. Nkunku could play SS, against stronger teams he could be our main striker."
ChronosEra: "Nkunku for Gallagher, I think this is it, it all depends on who we play. We show we're great against 'big clubs' when the pitch is more open but can't convert against sides who sit behind the ball all game."
