Ruled out for a month Badiashile (groin) is expected to miss the next month of action after being forced off against Aston Villa during Chelsea's 3-1 in the FA Cup last Wednesday, according to Nizaar Ki... Impact Badiashile's injury concerns look to be more serious than most thought, now being out for the next month following the blow to his groin. This will force the player to miss around the next five matches in league play, also being out for the Carabao Cup Final against Liverpool on Feb. 25. The club will now be left mainly using Thiago Silva and Axel Disasi as the pairing in the center of the defense, with Levi Colwill also being a part of the rotation, as he is about to return from a knee issue. Chelsea will now look for a decent recovery with no setbacks from Badiashile, hoping to have the player ready to return by early March.
