Michy Batshuayi might not have been a regular on the pitch for Chelsea in the Premier League, but he has always been named on the bench.
However, a lot of fans were surprised that the 23-year-old didn’t even make the bench on Monday night’s win against Middlesbrough, especially as the Chelsea manager didn’t make any revelation that he was injured.
What surprised most fans the more is that the 23-year-old was tweeting during the match.
However, Belgian journalist Kristof Terreur has revealed, the simple reason that the striker was not involved in the squad was just down to illness.

So expect to see the Batman on the bench against West Brom on Friday night.
