Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has a full squad to choose from for tomorrow night’s Champions League semi-final first leg against Liverpool at Stamford Bridge.

Mourinho’s main dilemma revolves around whether to play fit-again Arjen Robben from the start after the winger made his return to first-team action in the win over Fulham at the weekend.

Bidding to reach the final of the Champions League for the second successive year, Mourinho is without long-term absentees Wayne Bridge (broken ankle), Scott Parker (broken foot) and Paulo Ferreira (broken foot). Jiri Jarosik is cup-tied.

Provisional squad: Cech, Cudicini, Makelele, Terry, Johnson, Gallas, Carvalho, Duff, Robben, Gudjohnsen, Drogba, Smertin, Tiago, Lampard, Cole, Forssell, Kezman, Geremi, Huth.
