Following the campaign 2017-2018 in the Premier League Chelsea took the 5th place in the standings, being behind the board of the current Champions League.
During the draw of the group stage of the tournament, the defender of the "blue" Marcos Alonso barely restrained himself:.
"When I watched the Champions League draw on TV and saw that none of the teams had my team, I wanted to break up the TV".
"I hope for us it will be a lesson and this season we will fight for the victory in the Premier League and getting into the Champions League".
"In my opinion, last season we deserved more. It's a pity that we did not manage to get into this tournament, "Alonso said on the radio station Onda Cero.
Note that Chelsea will play in the European League and have already learned the rivals in the group, which became Pak, Bate and Vidi.
