Chelsea have a good chance of success abroad - Cole
Frank Lampard's young and attractive team is fighting for success in the 2020-2021 Champions League season.
Former Chelsea midfielder Joe Cole believes the team has a good chance of succeeding in this season's Champions League.
Frank Lampard's side secured their place in the knockout stages with last night's 4-0 win over Sevilla. The young Chelsea have performed very well this season, and expectations from them have been steadily rising. During the summer transfer window, Roman Abramovich spent a lot of cash strengthening his team, and it seems that these expenses have paid off so far. Therefore, former Blues midfielder Joe Cole, criticizing Juventus and Barcelona, called Chelsea one of the main chances of success in this year's competition.
“There's a fearlessness about them. Second youngest squad in the Premier League,”
the former Blues star told BT Sport.
“And those names you see. You might think: ‘Ah, Juventus are still there and so are Barcelona’, but if you look at each club individually at the moment, Juventus are in a bit of disarray, Barcelona's a mess,
Real Madrid, the manager is hanging on in there.
“It’s open to anyone.
Manchester City,
Liverpool. We could even have a situation where all four English teams are in the last four.
“I look at those teams that are through already and none of them scare me. And I think Chelsea are right up there with the form teams, 15 games unbeaten and it's looking rosy for them right now.”
