Rafa: Pressure on Blues
-
Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez believes the pressure is firmly on Chelsea when the sides clash in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday.
Despite The Blues holding a 1-0 advantage from their first leg tie at Stamford Bridge, they fell five points behind Manchester United in the title race at the weekend.
Benitez knows Jose Mourinho must land silverware regularly and believes the pressure is firmly on the ex-Porto man at Anfield.
Liverpool's Spanish boss is happy his side only have a one goal deficit to make up and is looking forward to dumping Chelsea out of Europe.
"I don't want to analyse what Chelsea say or do," Benitez said in the Daily newspaper.
"All I know is that they have spent millions and millions and they need to win trophies.
"If you spend this amount of money, it is to win trophies.
"That means if they cannot win the league now, they will be under real pressure.
"The positive thing for me is that we played badly, but conceded one at Stamford Bridge." -
rub it in, rub it in, thats the way to make them play within themselves. hopefully Rafa's mind games would be the key for Chelsea to lose the game
