Carvalho included in Chelsea squad for Inter clash
Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti has included Portuguese defender Ricardo Carvalho for Tuesday night’s Champions League clash with Inter Milan.
Carvalho missed the 4-1 league win over West Ham with a hamstring injury but Ancelotti has confirmed he will be in the squad for the Round of 16 second leg clash at Stamford Bridge.
"From the players missing on Saturday we will have Carvalho, the other players we don't have a problem with,” he said.
Goalkeepers Petr Cech and Hilario are both still injured but Ancelotti said he had no qualms playing Ross Turnbull in goals.
"Cech is injured and we have to think Ross is a very good goalkeeper," Ancelotti added. "He's trained well this season and improved every day so it's not a problem.
"Cech has more experience than Ross Turnbull but Ross is young and has enthusiasm to want to play. For him it will be a great, great experience."
