Blues shot-stopper admits exit would be a disaster


Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech admits it would be a disaster if his side are knocked out of the UEFA Champions League by FC Copenhagen.
The Premier League champions have endured a wretched season so far and are all but out of the title race, while they lost in the FA Cup to Everton at the weekend.
Pressure is growing on manager Carlo Ancelotti ahead of the trip to Denmark on Tuesday, as the quest for European glory resumes.
Cech, 28, says Copenhagen will not be easy opponents but claims it would be terrible should the Blues see themselves exit the competition.
When asked if it would be a disaster if Chelsea went out, he told his official website: "Absolutely. It's not about the name of our opposition, it's about the distance (in the competition).
"To be eliminated would be very bad for Chelsea and it's not the aim of any big club, after all."
Cech claims Chelsea are still fighting in the Premier League this term but is well aware that the only realistic chance of silverware now comes in Europe.
"Naturally, we are still fighting for the best position possible, we are still in mathematically but it is not at all in our hands now," he added, with the Blues 12 points behind leaders Manchester United.
"We must hope that other contenders drop a lot of points, which is hard to expect.
"That is why the Champions League is basically the last competition we can win."
