Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah's personal trainer has slammed the injury management at the club.

The Sun reports Ed Hodge has blasted the way the players are being prepared at the club.

In a now-deleted tweet showing what appeared to be a private Instagram conversation, Hodge revealed the reason behind all of the injuries at Chelsea.

He wrote: "Most of the injuries are because the players have been loading muscles time and time again without lengthening them simultaneously... then one lunge 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).

"It's an absolute mess at the moment, bro."

Chelsea currently have 12 first team stars unavailable due to injury.
