Eight crosses in 1-1 draw James registered eight crosses (zero accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Burnley.

Impact James attempted eight crosses but was unable to be accurate with any of them. James had missed the last two Premier League games but returned in the FA Cup win over Hull. This was the sixth time this year that he has attempted eight crosses, but this is the first time that he has failed to complete any when attempting eight or more. He is Chelsea's top set-piece taker, two ahead of Pedro Neto having taken five corners in this match.

Starting in FA Cup James (illness) is in the starting lineup for Friday's FA Cup match against Hull City.

Impact James was a late call to face the Tigers in this match, but the captain will get the nod and start in his regular right-back role. James has yet to play in the FA Cup this season, but he's tallied two goals and six assists across 30 matches between the Premier League and the Champions League.

Impact James is going to need some testing ahead of Friday's match, with the defender still not fully fit and needing some further training. He will then be subjected to a fitness test ahead of match time, testing his legs to see if he is fit enough to play. With Marc Cucurella out on the left, the club could be forced to be without their top two full-backs, leaving Jorell Hato, Malo Gusto and Josh Acheampong as possible replacements on the flanks.

Impact James is not going to miss time this week due to undisclosed issues, as the defender appears to be fit enough to play again. That said, the defender will look to eye a starting spot immediately upon his return, starting in four of his past five outings. He continues to see time between the midfield and right-back, with two goals and four assists in 23 appearances (16 starts).

Impact James is expected to return for Tuesday's clash with Leeds United as he continues to struggle with some pain management issues. The defender has been constantly injured in recent months, with little nagging issues between major ones. James will be a positive contributor when back fit, but it seems him staying healthy for an extended period is unlikely.

Impact James is not available for Saturday's match against Wolves after failing to gain clearance following the final training session. His absence keeps him sidelined despite his importance this season with two goals and six assists across 30 appearances in all competitions.

Impact James could be available for Saturday's match against Wolverhampton and will be assessed after the final training session to determine his fitness. The versatile Englishman, capable of featuring at left-back and in midfield, remains an important contributor after tallying two goals and six assists across 30 appearances in all competitions this season.

Out Tuesday with fitness issue James didn't pass a late fitness test and was sidelined for Tuesday's EFL Cup action against Arsenal, Kieran Gill of the Daily Mail reports.

Impact James will hope to avoid a major injury with four more days to recover before the next Premier League matchup against Wolves. If he continues to sit out, it could lead to increased playing time for Malo Gusto and Andrey Santos at right-back and central midfield, respectively. Despite his minor injury struggles, James had taken part in each of the previous five contests across all competitions prior to Tuesday's cup semifinal.
