Chelsea are back in the Champions League, but since Roman Abramovich’s arrival in 2003, the Blues have arguably never had less expectations entering the competition.
Winning the Europa League last season confirmed a successful campaign alongside a third-placed finish, but now Frank Lampard must build on that.
He’ll know a top four finish should be complimented with a run to the last 16 here at least.
And with their place firmly in pot one as a result of their victory in Baku, they stand a good chance of qualifying out of the group stage.
They’ll need a bit of luck too though, with pot three and four possessing some talented teams, but there will be real excitement about their involvement again in Thursday’s draw.
Chelsea fans, who do you want the Blues to draw?
