Chelsea v Barcelona: Andrei Shevchenko believes former team-mates can counter …
“I would say it has been a very difficult season for Chelsea. It is not
finished. And as the only one [English] team playing in Champions
League still, that is very good for Chelsea. Maybe Chelsea can play
in the final. You never know.
“Of course they are not in a good position in the Premier
League because I think Chelsea always fights to win the league. Now
they also need to think about the Champions League but in football, when the
season has not finished, you cannot say it is a bad season. I think Chelsea
can change everything in one game.
“The game today, if Chelsea beat Barcelona and play well, of course they is
another game after that, they will have a good chance to play in the final.”
Shevchenko, though, would not be drawn as to who he would like to see as the
next manager of his old club.
“I think the owner will decide, but I think Roberto di Matteo is doing a
great job. He has some good results, like Napoli where Chelsea played very
nice.
“I don’t know who I want as boss, it is not my decision. I think Di
Matteo has a good opportunity to show everyone how good he is and maybe
[persuade] the Chelsea owner with a good result he should stay in the job.”
