“Everybody knows
Mourinho doesn’t lose at Stamford Bridge. My record is unbeatable. It
is amazing – we were so strong for such a long time.”

Former Chelsea coach Jose Mourinho now of Inter

“Mourinho’s return
was really not a big theme in the dressing room. It is another time
with another coach. Most of the players worked with him for a long time
but it’s gone. We have an experienced side hungry to win the Champions
League. To have a coach who has won it twice, that’s why we look up to
him and that’s why he is here.” Chelsea midfielder Michael Ballack

“There is no problem with Mourinho. It’s a game between Chelsea and Inter, not me against Mourinho.”

Chelsea coach Carlo Ancelotti

“Mourinho is one of
the best managers I’ve played for and he brought a lot to my career.
When he signed me at Chelsea he gave me a lot of confidence. He always
put me in the team, no matter what game. He brought a lot of positive
things to my career so I’ll never forget him.”

Chelsea striker Solomon Kalou

“For me, it will
rest on how they handle Drogba. They don’t have a great deal of height
at the back. They have Lucio, who is a reasonable size, but Samuel is
not big. He’s only about 5ft 9ins or so. He’s tough, but not
particularly big, so Drogba’s size could be a problem.”

Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson

“It will be a
different game from the first leg. Chelsea played better at San Siro.
Inter begin with a quite important advantage at Stamford Bridge. It
also depends on who Ancelotti plays. But Chelsea are as strong as
Manchester United.”

Former Inter manager Roberto Mancini now of Man City

“Chelsea are the
favourites and the pressure is on them. Every minute that passes
without a goal on Tuesday will add to that pressure. They will feel the
tension. I have told Didier Drogba that we will create big problems for
Chelsea and that they will have to produce their best performance of
the season to beat us. I was annoyed when I saw the draw because I
hoped this match would have been the final at the Bernabeu in May, but
we don’t fear Chelsea. We need to repeat the level we showed in the San
Siro over the 90 minutes.”
