Chelsea manager Antonio Conte 'trusts' young defender Andreas Christensen to successfully fill the void left by suspended
David Luiz in his sides next three domestic matches.
The Brazil international is to miss the EFL cup tie with Nottingham Forest in midweek, as well
as Premier League games against Stoke City And Manchester City, after being shown a red card in the English top flight against Arsenal.
Conte turned to Christensen to strengthen the Blues backline in the stalemate with the Gunners,
rather than £29m summer signing Antonio Rudiger, and the Italian has hinted that he will do likewise for
his side's upcoming League fixtures.
