With the player himself initially expressing his hopes of an earlier return than predicted, it looks as if his positive attitude wasn’t entirely misplaced. Because, Scolari has recently confirmed in the press that Chelsea’s 25 year old midfielder could indeed be making a return much earlier than first thought. Scolari says “In January, I’ll give to you good news. Very good news about new players in Chelsea.†And yet, it wasn’t costly transfers he was talking about, because he goes on “I can do that now if you want? Essien. I think he’ll be back a month earlier than the doctors said. “I think God helped me and, in January, I think he will play for us at the last few days in January.â€

Will that be just before he leaves for the African Nations?

Let's hope he brings his boy with him.............I've heard he can really get on the end of a cross
