Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has dropped Eden Hazard to the bench for the Champions League clash with Dynamo Kiev.
The Belgian, who has been reported to be unhappy at the club, was taken off after less than an hour in the defeat against Liverpool and has had a miserable season, with no goals at all this season.
Chelsea have a must-win game against Stoke City at the weekend and Mourinho could well be resting the winger.
Cesc Fabregas, who rubbished claims he was leading a dressing room revolt against Mourinho, is restored to the starting team after he was named to the bench on Saturday.
Under-pressure Jose Mourinho makes two other changes with Baba Rahman coming in for Gary Cahill - Cesar Azpilicueta switches to right-back and Kurt Zouma into the middle - with Nemanja Matic replacing John Obi Mikel in midfield.
CHELSEA: Begovic, Azpilicueta, Zouma, Terry, Baba Rahman, Ramires, Matic, Willian, Fabregas, Oscar, Diego Costa.
