Petr Cech: Shoulder Injury Ends Season
Cech suffered a shoulder injury in Tuesday's Champions League match against Atletico Madrid and he will not play again this season, the BBC reports.
Analysis:
This is a huge blow to Chelsea's Champions League and Premier League aspirations, not to mention fantasy teams that have ridden Cech's fine play this season. Mark Schwarzer, who replaced Cech in Tuesday's match, is expected to start the remaining three fixtures this season, including this Sunday's league match against Liverpool.
