http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Frank-Lampard-c14097 has come out and admitted that Chelsea are enjoying being the underdogs in the lead up to their tie against Barcelona and has stressed that the Blues have a special plan to defeat the reigning European champions...
Chelsea’s midfielder has come out and revealed that they have a special plan to defeat Barcelona and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296. Messi and co. are set to take on Chelsea on Wednesday night in their UEFA Champions League semi-final at Stamford
Bridge.
The second leg will take place at Barcelona’s home ground, the Nou Camp but given http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604’s ruthless reputation at Nou Camp, the London outfit will surely have to win at Stamford Bridge in order
to have a chance of making it to the UEFA Champions League final. In the English Premier League, Chelsea are struggling to make an impact due to their inconsistent form.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 at the weekend.
However Lampard is adamant that in their mid-week tie against Barcelona, Chelsea are going to be regarded as underdogs, something that works well for them.
He said, "I quite like the tag of being underdogs. It is refreshing if you believe in yourselves, and we do believe in ourselves. The last thing we want to do is take too much fear into this game. You can talk yourself into fear
by talking up Barcelona all the time and we have to believe in ourselves. We have to respect the opposition but we have to play our game.”
He added, "Our style of play has been very effective lately. We are mixing an organised, disciplined game with some very good, attacking football. On our day and the way we are playing at the moment we can be a match for anyone.
At the same time we completely respect that not only are Barcelona the in-form team at the moment but the dominant team in Europe over the last few years, but I believe we have a very good chance of winning the game.”
