RE: Down, But Not Out!

In football, nothing is impossible. Madrid proved that by riding their luck to the title in their knockout ties against PSG, Chelsea and City last season. However, a little bit of reality is equally important. 2012 Chelsea had world class players underperforming. That means when they get on their groove they can match anyone. 2012 Chelsea had Drogba and Lampard, highly experienced players who had being to the UCL Final before. This current Chelsea squad is nothing close to that.

I'm not saying it's impossible, but the chances of Chelsea winning the UCL is very slim except if one wants to deceive himself. By the way, I expect them to beat Dortmund and qualify for the quarterfinals. Who knows, they may get paired with Benfica who is considerably weaker.
