Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech welcomes John Terry's return to the side following his absence with a knee injury since November.

Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech has insisted that John Terry's return to the side will benefit the Blues in the second half of the season.

The club's captain has been sidelined since November with a knee injury but made an appearance from the substitutes bench in Chelsea's 4-0 win over Stoke City at the weekend.

"It was good to have him back, the 10 minutes that he was on at Stoke is under his belt now and he will get his fitness back and that will be great for the team," London 24 quotes Cech as saying. "It is important for everyone to be available as there are a lot of games now."

The Blues are currently third in the Premier League table, 14 points adrift of leaders Manchester United.
