Chelsea: The Next World Beaters?

I fully believe Chelsea will be one tough team to beat in three or four years. By tough, I mean the next Barcelona, or Manchester United of old.

Jose Mourinho will be our cherry, on the icing of the cake, but in reality, he really doesn’t have to do much at all. His first reign at the club, was very much a time for sculpting, and creating a world-beating team, as part of a four or five year plan. Now, when he joins, that work is already well in motion.

‘A team in transition’ Finally. Something I agree with old Rafa Benitez about.

Like it or not, we are exactly that. No club can go on winning trophies year after year for decades, and although they seem to be the best at this ‘transitioning’ stage, even Manchester United have had poor seasons and spells.

I wouldn’t say it is wrong to be worried and skeptical about our immediate future, and I do agree that Champions League qualification is vital, but not much more than that is.

If last years Champions League victory was a miracle, then a second successive one, would truly be an act of god for the Stamford Bridge side.

Despite possessing arguably a better team this term, as well as having the mental ability to win the trophy, whilst surrounded by the problems we faced last year, I think this year will see one of the Spanish giants, Barcelona or Real Madrid pick up the coveted prize.

Drogba: In a race to be fit tonightChelsea have the massive task of attempting to avoid defeat at the Nou Camp tonight, meaning they would progress to the UEFA Champions League Final.

                  

Should they lose by the solitary goal, it would also be enough to send them through on away goals, unless the score is 1-0 to the Catalans, meaning the game would go into extra-time, and possibly penalties.

Chelsea face Barcelona tonight in the Champions League semi-final, coming off the back of an enthralling 5-1 victory over neighbours Tottenham at the weekend.

David Luiz picked up an injury in that game, so Chelsea will be without him tonight, so Gary Cahill will fill in for him. The Catalan side have David Villa, Gerard Pique and Eric Abidal sidelined, so Chelsea have an opportunity to exploit the usual resilient defence of Barcelona.
