Xavi does not believes Chelsea have changed much after they replaced Luiz Felipe Scolari with Guus Hiddink earlier this season.
“The players are the same under both [Jose] Mourinho and [Guus] Hiddink. They bring together strength and quality, the games against them are always hard and we have been through a lot in recent matches. We cannot let our guard down. We are hoping to repeat how we did against Bayern [Munich] and put them under pressure. It is very important not to concede,” AS quotes him as saying.
“Messi does not have any pressure, he goes out onto the pitch to enjoy himself and, for me, he is the best player in the world as he can change games at any time. He will be key against Chelsea. A footballer who wins the Balon d’Or or FIFA World Player Of The Year has to win titles like the Champions League.”
