Chelsea FC: What to expect from them in the Champions League

Exciting, swift football

Quick and Witty Chelsea

This Chelsea is different. It is not the same old Chelsea of Mourinho where everyone sends a long ball out to Drogba.

It is a Chelsea which exchanges at least five to ten passes in the midfield before sending out a killer through ball to the forward.

This Chelsea is not slow; if anything, the five passes talked about are completed in a quicker span than a long ball from Mourinho’s previous stint at Stamford Bridge.

With players like Hazard, Willian, Schurrle, Mata, Oscar, Lampard and others, Chelsea are an exciting attacking unit and can unlock any defence on any given day (except Everton’s on 14th September, 2013).

However, a lot of hard work and determination is required to keep up this style of play and whether Chelsea will be able to do that over the course, and stick with it through the losses, of the competition is yet to be seen.
