Chelsea's players have been told that no-one's place is safe if the club's poor start to the season continues.
Manager Jose Mourinho has left John Terry out for the
past two Premier League games, while Branislav Ivanovic and Cesc
Fabregas have been criticised.
"Untouchables in football - only consistency can give you that status," said Mourinho, whose side are 14th in the table after seven games.
"Football is about today. At this moment I don't have untouchables."
Terry, 34, has started only the League Cup win at Walsall since a 3-1 defeat at Everton on 12 September.
Champions Chelsea, eight points behind leaders Manchester United in the league, travel to Mourinho's former club Porto in the Champions League on Tuesday.
In 2006, during his first spell in charge, Mourinho described eight of his first-team players - including Terry, Ashley Cole, Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba - "untouchable" because of their form.
