Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri said Eden Hazard was not a leader before the Carabao Cup semi-final match with Tottenham.
He said, "Right now, Hazard is more of an individual player. He is very important to us because he is an excellent player. He can always win the match in two minutes or a minute.
"For the moment, he's not a leader but an excellent player, one of the best in the world.
"We have players with the characteristics to be a leader. Azpilicueta and Luiz. I think that they can help other players. "
Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino confirmed that Moussa Sissoko and Lucas Moura could play at Stamford Bridge.
"I think it's good news that Moussa and Lucas are arguing and that Victor has started joining the band. The manager and coaches always want their players to be available. "
Chelsea's new recruit, Gonzalo Higuain, will not play because he signed for the club too late.
Tottenham leads 1-0 in the first leg thanks to a penalty kick from Harry Kane.
