Chelsea Skipper John Terry: I'll Be Fit In Time To Face Bolton Wanderers

Carlo Ancelotti believes Blues' plight is due to away form.
Chelsea captain John Terry insists that he will regain fitness in time to play a part against Bolton Wanderers on Monday.

The Blues' manager Carlo Ancelotti had recently expressed concern about the centre-half having fallen prey to a minor back problem, but the 30-year-old believes he will have no problem being available for the game against Owen Coyle's charges.

"On Monday I took a knee to the ribs, which were sore and resulted in me missing the last two days' training with the squad," Terry was quoted by Sky Sports as saying.

"I have been able to do some pool work and stepped up training on Friday with the medical team whilst the rest of the squad were off.

"I will resume full training on Saturday and be available for Monday's game at Bolton."

Chelsea now have five away days in their next six games, having failed to win any of their last seven games away from Stamford Bridge in all competitions.

But manager Carlo Ancelotti reckons that while his side have been enduring some travel sickness, their performances against Birmingham City and Tottenham Hotspur warranted victories.
