Chelsea team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Manchester City

Sports Mole rounds up Chelsea's injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday's Premier League clash with Manchester City.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest with Man City, who have 10 points from their opening five league encounters.
