"Masterclass incoming": Chelsea fans react to Frank Lampard's team selection vs Brighton

Chelsea fans have reacted to the club boss Frank Lampard's starting lineup against Brighton, as Reece James is on the list of the playing squad. The English full back had picked up an ankle injury and was to miss the New Year's Day clash. When asked about James' injury, the Blues' manager said: "Hopefully a week or ten days. He's had a bit of a niggle around his ankle injury which he had surgery on in pre-season so that was a bit of a worry. The doctors are saying it will be a week or so." However, the 20-year-ols is in the starting lineup, to which the club fans reacted positively. They have posted on their Twitter accounts, commenting on the full back's presence during the upcoming match.
