The first leg will be played in Paris on April 2nd while the return leg will happen at The Bridge on April 8th.
Paris St. Germain are no push-overs and will pose a tough challenge for the Blues, but at the same time, the draw could have gone much worse for the 2012 Champions League winners.
Sometime in near future, we will take a close look at our opponents and on their road to the quarter-finals!
Psst…Hi Zlatan! #DareToChelsea
We are facing a very tough opponent,PSG is a strongest emerging side with superb players…hope we’ll cope with Ibrahimovic’s fireworks.
It is true PSG have talented players in Ibra,Carvani and Lavazzi,but if Chelsea can repeat the same performance they put up against B Munich in Super cup,I see blues triumph with tight defence that can check PSG attacking machinery.
Bring on psg..i trust mourinho wit his masta tactics in big matches…go blues
PSG team hs more physical & talent players like Man City. It is a bad draw for blue but with z help of Mourn experience we can beat them. As we won M City 2 times this season, we can do z same thing on PSG. We don’t afraid of them. Our experience in UCL, having great coach and playing 2nd game in home favour us to win z game. Good chance to blue!!
Tough draw but we can defeat PSG.
Quite tough with Ibra in between the lines… I wish we had an in form prolific strike force to match a fierce PSG fowards. But I reckon we’ll do it the way we know best as usual.
Wit due respect to PSG .Gud team wit some gr8 individual players, but in Jose we trust. The ROMAN BLUE ARMY ll shoot dem down
as good as psg look,they arent a better side.they only have edge over us in their,that is 2 say if eto isnt at his best on that day,but in everyother department cfc clear hav the edge.cech,iva,j.t,cahil,azpi,rami & hazard’s form at that time wil determine who goes tru.not a bad draw.up cfc.
First thank God 4 makin dis draw come thru us d blues we are always a winner when we put our hrts togetta, go chelsea we can win.
