In an interview conceded to 'MD', the one who went player so much of Chelsea as of the FC Barcelona, Albert 'Chapi' Ferrer, has valued the eliminatory that will contest from this Tuesday the Barcelona group against the team 'blue' in the Champions League, ensuring that for the time being the combined trained by Ernesto Valverde is a stair by on regarding game and quality.

Chelsea, by against, has seen slightly stagnated this season and this is affecting him also in the Premier League. "Has a very different system, with three head offices. It works very well at the beginning, like surprise. In fact the first year did it very well and attained the title. The level of the Premier has gone up a lot and although they are not doing a bad year, the rivals every time know them more", values Ferrer.

"Stamford Bridge Is a small field, there will be spaces for the Barça"

In this sense, Chelsea does not have the resources of which has the FC Barcelona for desequilibrar. "You need a team with offensive variety especially. Andl Chelsea is not the Barça, has fewer resources and costs him more. In normal conditions, is underneath".

The Barça, with more freedom without Neymar Jr

It is not so encorsetado in the 4-3-3 and now has a solider system. It gives you more rest, occupy better the spaces. To the Barça has gone him well happen to the 4-4-2. All go more reposados and the team is more whole".

The risk for the Barcelona, finally, is the big motivation of Chelsea, taking into account that the 'blues' are descartados already to win the Premier League. "The Manchester City will not lose this League and Chelsea has to ensure the places of League of Champions. But stick to the Champions when it has touched you the Barcelona is complicated", concludes.
