One player fit to play is Belgian international midfielder Kevin de Bruyne. 'He is an interesting player,' says Villas-Boas. 'He can play in various positions, from wide left in a 4-4-2 or through the middle as a central midfielder. 'He is exceptionally gifted technically and reminds me of past technical Belgian players like Enzo Scifo, but he still has progression to be made and his next step, if he is thinking about moving, will be the most difficult one. 'We have not scouted just him, we have scouted many different players before so it doesn't mean that all the players we scout will eventually join us. We have to make the right decisions because it is always difficult to get into the Chelsea team. 'But he [De Bruyne] is an exceptional talent and hopefully he can continue to triumph in Genk and the Belgian national team.' chelseafc.com
