The Brazilian centre back who was central to Chelsea’s UEFA Champions League win against Bayern Munich has confirmed that now the Blues must challenge for the English Premier League title next season...
Luiz has come out and made it clear that Chelsea now need to do much better in the English Premier League next season after impressing everyone in the UEFA Champions League final against Bayern Munich. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 reached the final
of the Champions League against all odds as they defeated http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 in the semi-finals.
Luiz did not play a large role in the build up to the final but the young defender did play in the final itself due to suspensions to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/John-Terry-c18895 and Ivanovic. Chelsea held on till the end in the final at Allianz Arena and then
won their precious trophy via a penalty shootout in which Luiz converted his penalty kick with ease. Despite winning the F.A Cup and the UEFA Champions League, Chelsea did not do well domestically as they finished sixth behind the likes of Newcastle, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429
and Tottenham.
Luiz said, "Our titles have silenced many mouths because people had buried us and had no confidence in our results. Nobody gave us the titles we have won - all our rivals fought 100 per cent. I do not accept that Chelsea was a
team with luck because it is not true. Chelsea are obliged to fight for the Premier League title in the next campaign. This is our challenge and obligation."
He added, "I insist that AVB is not a bad coach. He has played a part in the success of winning our titles. The players have worked very united with Di Matteo, though. He demanded us to fight more, show total discipline in our
tactics and make much sacrifice.”
Chelsea parted ways with Andre Villas Boas a few months before their second leg of the UEFA Champions League round of 16 against Napoli. Since then, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roberto-c31294 Di Matteo has taken the team forward and led them to glory in the Champions
League as well as the F.A Cup.
