RESERVES LIVE ON CHELSEA TV

Chelsea reserves return to action at Cobham this afternoon, entertaining Wolverhampton Wanderers live on Chelsea TV.

Coach Dermot Drummy is hoping his youngsters can return to winning ways on the club's in-house channel from 2pm, and could be boosted by the presence of first-team members.

'We're looking forward to getting back into the games because we thought Villa was a good game with missed chances and we played some good football,' said the coach, whose side were beaten 1-a fortnight ago.

'There's a possibility of a couple of first-teamers involved, depending on how players are coming out of Saturday's game, so we might see someone likeRomelu Lukaku figure,' he added.

'Against Aston Villa in the last game we lacked a centre-forward and had to play young Alex Kiwomya, a schoolboy, we now have three to choose from because Marko Mitrovic has trained, Philipp Prosenik is back and also Milan Lalkovic has been recalled from Doncaster so he will come back in and we will have a strong team.'

There is also the possibility of recent schoolboy signing Islam Faruz, a goalscorer in the youth team's 2-1 win at Portsmouth at the weekend playing some part, but Jacob Mellis is a hamstring doubt and Daniel Pappoe-Mills will stay with the youth squad as he builds match fitness.

Likely to start once again is Sam Hutchinson, who continues his comeback having previously retired from the game. Drummy has been hugely impressed by the 22-year-old defender, and cannot praise his attitude enough.

'Hutch is doing fantastic,' he said. 'He's managing himself really well, no one probably knows better than himself, so he's working in line with what the medical staff tells him.

'He's very confident he's really performing well, which is nice, and every game he plays his sharpness is improving and performing to his strengths. He's done really well.'

Hutchinson's calm head will be needed against Wolves, who Drummy admits he knows little about at this level, with focus firmly on his own men rather than the opposition.

'Wolves played on Sunday so may not have first-teamers themselves, they may do, I don't know, but that's irrelevant. We go out to play our way and if we can do that I am sure we can get a result.

'I'm not worried about the Villa game, the character was fine, we could have scored two goals at the end and played against four or five Villa first-teamers. We played some decent football, and we showed fantastic character in that game, which I hope to see again.'

You can see how the second string fare live on Chelsea TV, Sky channel 421, from 2pm. The game is also on CTV Online.
