Trevoh Chalobah’s personal trainer has appeared to brand Chelsea’s injury crisis ‘an absolute mess’.

Ed Hodge, who works closely with Chalobah, seemed to discuss the Blues’ issues in a now-deleted Twitter post showing what looks to be a private Instagram conversation.

Chelsea have been without several key men this season as they try to rebuild under Mauricio Pochettino, and have won just one of their opening five matches of the Premier League season.

Hodge appears to have explained why in the messages, seemingly pinning the blame on the medical staff.

Trevoh Chalobah’s personal trainer has appeared to explain the reason behind Chelsea’s injury problems in a now-deleted post showing leaked messages

Chalobah is out with a hamstring issue and is yet to play for Mauricio Pochettino’s side so far this season

Trainer Ed Hodge suggested the injury issues are largely down to insufficent preparation

‘Trev has a hammie injury… should be back to 90 per cent sprint ability by end of this week,’ the apparent messages begin.

‘Most of the injuries are because the players have been loading muscles time and time again without lengthening them simultaneously… then one lunch into a tackle, or a COD too rapidly and they’re injured.

‘Hardly any of them do reformer Pilates or terrain work (i.e. stair sprints & hill sprints to strengthen knee ligaments).
