Emma Hayes admits she doesn't know which players will be fit for Women's FA Cup tie against Arsenal on Sunday, with 15 INTERNATIONALS on duty... and two Canadians yet to return from North America 48 hours before game

Chelsea boss Emma Hayes admits she is still unsure which players she will have fit and available for her side’s women’s FA Cup fifth round match with Arsenal on Sunday.

The Blues had 15 internationals away representing their countries last week with top scorer Sam Kerr facing the longest round trip after helping Australia to the Cup of Nations title in her homeland.

Canadian pair Jessie Fleming and Kadeisha Buchanan were also in action and had yet to return home from their trip by the time Hayes spoke to the media on Friday afternoon.
