Although the defender of London Ashley Cole suffered a serious knee injury, he will still be able to play this season. The footballer got injured during Wednesday's Premier League match against Blackburn.

In the second half of the match, which Chelsea won 3-0, A.Cole stretched his cruciate ligaments and had to be carried off the field. Initially, the defender couldn't walk, but according to the club, he will still be able to play this season.

The 26-year-old Ashley Cole transferred to Chelsea from Arsenal this season.

The better news for J.Mourinho's players is that another defender John Terry should be back on the field this weekend, and in the near future - Khalid Boulahrouz as well.
