Wouldn't surprise me if Terry plays this Sunday. It won't be the first time Mourinho has told the press a player is injured only for them to make a miraculous recovery.

Think this one may be genuine. Looked a pretty serious injury to his ankle. Couldn't put any weight on it at all.

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has confirmed Petr Cech's season is over after the goalkeeper dislocated his shoulder in their Champions League semi-final first leg draw at Atletico Madrid.
Mourinho stated that Cech will not feature again this season, telling Sky Sport Italia: "Petr Cech's season is over."
Cech was injured just 16 minutes into the match and was replaced by Mark Schwarzer. He jumped to clear a corner over his own bar but had his legs taken out from under him by a stumbling Raul Garcia. Cech fell awkwardly and immediately grabbed his right arm.
Injuries spoiled what was a prize draw for Mourinho's side, who host Atletico in the return leg at Stamford Bridge next Wednesday.
First, though, Chelsea travel to Liverpool on Sunday for Premier League title clash with league leaders Liverpool. Mourinho will be without Cech for the Anfield showdown, while captain John Terry could also miss out after he was carried off at the Vicente Calderon with a suspected ankle injury.
Eden Hazard is also a doubt for the trip to Liverpool; the midfielder travelled with the Chelsea squad to Madrid, but was not named in the starting line-up or on the bench. He suffered a calf injury in the quarter-final second leg win against Paris Saint-Germain.
Samuel Eto'o was ruled out of the draw with Atletico with a knee injury.

Petr Čech is set to sit out the rest of the campaign after Chelsea FC confirmed that he has dislocated his shoulder while captain John Terry is also set to miss the UEFA Champions League semi-final second leg against Club Atlético de Madrid.
Goalkeeper Čech was led from the pitch 18 minutes into Tuesday evening's 0-0 first-leg draw away to Atlético after colliding with Raúl García and falling awkwardly following a corner. He was replaced by Mark Schwarzer, the 41-year-old coming on for only his second UEFA Champions League appearance; after half-time Terry hobbled off with an ankle injury.
After the game, manager José Mourinho said: "Petr Čech's season is over. He won't play again this season, but I hope he can at least celebrate something with us. For John, we will have to reach the final for him to play again."
On Sunday Chelsea face a crucial Premier League meeting away at leaders Liverpool FC, before Wednesday's home second leg with Atlético.

If they get to the CL final they will play a weak team vs us.

Their weak team will still have Premier League quality in it.. The only thing I hope for is their out of the Premier League title challenge come our game.

Which could actually be a bit touger than the 1st team at the end of the season (all not wanting an injury for the world cup)
Instead we'll be playing fringe players who want to make sure they're either in Chelsea's team next season, or making an impression for other teams to come get them.
Tough tough game regardless of who they play I think - but it would be a great to see The Whiny One if we do win

i thought that as well, but that was when i thought there was 6 days between the last league game and the champions league final, however, there is 13.
Terry and Cech being out is obviously good for us, Hazard and Eto'o will both be back by then though i imagine.

I think they would do it anyway, just incase of any injuries

really cant see it, these players would then have something like 3 weeks without a match before a cup final. thats too long really.

Aye fair enough. Hopefully we won't need to worry too much about them if we get 2 away wins....
