EskWeston 696 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Ray Wilkins has confirmed Jose Bosingwa will miss the rest of the season, and is due to have another operation on his knee injury, keeping him out of the World Cup. The Portuguese defender has not played for Chelsea since limping off against Aston Villa in October, and will now have to sit out this summer's tournament in South Africa as well as the rest of the club season. 'Bosingwa will be out for the season and have another operation, so that's him unfortunately, and he'll miss the World Cup as well,' Wilkins said, adding that the injury 'just needs clearing up.' In other injury news Ricardo Carvalho is a doubt for the weekend after withdrawing from Portugal duty in midweek, but Wilkins is optimistic that the centre-half could be involved against Stoke on Sunday. 'We have been very fortunate that most players have come back in fine form from the internationals during the week, and there is only Riccy Carvalho that has a slight problem with his hamstring, a little bit of tightness but we'll have a look at that today and see if he'll be okay for Sunday,' said the assistant manager, before discussing the rest of the absentees. 'Michael Essien is doing well, there has been a slight complication which means it needs a couple of weeks longer but he's out [in France] with Ashley [Cole] now and they're both doing extremely well, so from that point of view we're delighted with their recovery. 'It's difficult to give a timescale but hopefully he'll be fit as soon as possible because when we lose players of that quality it is damning on any side,' Wilkins said. 'Petr [Cech] is doing very well indeed, he was doing some half-squats yesterday in the water, and he's coming on very well.'Source: Chelsea FC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EskWeston 696 Posted March 5, 2010 Author Share Posted March 5, 2010 Yip big shame for him to miss the World Cup. And a massive shame for us that he is going miss the rest of the season. Would have liked to have seen him back at right back as soon as possible but that isn't going to happen now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boshman 1,073 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Disappointing for Bos (especially as he misses the World Cup) but Ivan is having the season of his life this year so don't think it will be that much of a problem for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aesthetic Relic 301 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Do you think we'll be aloud to replace him in the CL squad ?Ferreira was dropped to make way for him as we thought he would be back in time to take part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubber bullets 1,183 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Horrible news, but brilliant for Ivanoiv, he has the whole season at right back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Ivanovic... our player of the season? He's got a case. Gutted for Bosingwa because I think he'd have done a good job at tightening up the defence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gutted for Bosingwa because I think he'd have done a good job at tightening up the defence.It has to be between him and Didier. I would have said Anelka and A.Cole would be in contention but i think Nico has tailed off a bot since Drogba returned from Africa and now Ash has got injured i think its a two way bout between Ivan and Didier.
