Chelsea manager, Jose Mourinho has expressed uncertainty over the availability of his midfielder, Cesc Fabregas for his side's premier league game on Staurday.

Fabregas sustained a hamstring injury inn the Capital One Cup triumph over Liverpool on Tuesday night, at the Stamford Bridge after clashing with the team captain, John Terry.

The former Arsenal and Barcelona player was substituted early in the second half of the game, which the Blues won in extra-time courtesy of Branislav Ivanovic's header.

Fabregas tried to clear the ball five minutes into the second half  in their half but collided with his captain, who had committed to the challenge from the opposite direction.

Mourinho immediately took the decision to substitute Fabregas in favour of Ramires with Saturday's Premier League crunch clash against title rivals Manchester City looming large on the horizon.

And when quizzed over Fabregas, as well Filipe Luis who was also taken off due to injury, the Portuguese coach told reporters: "Filipe was a calf and Fabregas was a hamstring.

"Fabregas told me he wasn't injured immediately after clashing with Terry, but that he would be in a few moments."

Fabregas has made 21 Premier League appearances for Chelsea this season, notching two goals and 15 assists. Goal
