The countdown to our return to Premier League action is almost over, with the Blues completing their final preparations at Cobham ahead of tomorrow's meeting with Bournemouth.

With the international break now firmly behind us, Xabi Alonso and his coaching staff have been able to work with a full complement as our returning international players link up with their team-mates.

Attention is now firmly on Stamford Bridge, where the Cherries will be the visitors for a 3pm kick-off as we begin a busy month of October.

Moises Caicedo, Reece James and Joao Pedro were among those putting the finishing touches to our preparations, with Maxence Lacroix and Marco Palestra also involved in the session.

You can view our favourite images from Friday's session below, and make sure you stay tuned to the Chelsea Official App and website for all the live match coverage of our Premier League return.

There’s still time to secure your seat for Bournemouth and watch the Saturday 3pm action live from the best seats in the house with Club Chelsea. Final VIP tickets available – book now.
