Pep Guardiola's words about Chelsea in the past

"Chelsea is one of the most important teams in England, they won the Champions League with Tuchel against us. They are one of the strongest teams, there is no doubt about it. They have a good spirit, good combinations, they are aggressive... it is one of the toughest games of the season, but we will go with optimism. Right now we are leaders and we have to try to maintain the quality of our game, but sooner or later Chelsea will fight for the title again, without a doubt," said the coach.
