Chelsea fans all say the same thing as Antonio Conte reveals injury news ahead of Barcelona game
Chelsea take on Barcelona on Tuesday night and Antonio Conte will need his whole squad fit for the crucial Champions League clash at Stamford Bridge.
Marcos Alonso, Tiemoue Bakayoko, David Luiz and Ross Barkley all missed the FA Cup fifth round match with Hull City on Friday night and three of them are doubts once more for the European match.
Crucially, Alonso is set to be back for the last 16 first leg game against the Catalan giants, however Antonio Conte confirmed last night that Bakayoko is not likely to be back in time after picking up a knock in training.
"Yes. He will be fit. I don't think Bakayoko is available for the game against Barcelona. Alonso is ready to play," Conte said after the Hull game.
Bakayoko has had a difficult start to his time at Chelsea and his last game was a nightmare night at Watford where he was sent off after just 30 minutes of the game.

Blues fans have certainly not been blown away by the 23-year-old so far having joined from Monaco in the summer and some supporters are starting to get on his back as well.
The news that he will be out for Barcelona game has gone down pretty well with some Chelsea fans and they have taken to social media in delight.
