Chelsea to wait on Eto'o injury

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho says he needs to know more on the injury of Samuel Eto'o before making a judgment call.

The Cameroon striker was stretchered off during the first half of Tuesday night's 1-0 Champions League at FC Basel with a groin problem but Mourinho suggests it is too early to learn the extent.

"We have to wait, he has an injury in the groin, but in this weather and hard pitches it is something that can happen," he told Sky Sports.
