UCL QF Draw: 3 Records That Makes Tuchel's Chelsea The Most Dangerous Team In The Competition

 After the completion of the Uefa Champions League round of 16 ties last night when Chelsea and Villarreal eliminated Lille and Juventus respectively, we can now finally confirm the last 8 teams left in the competition.

Atletico Madrid, Benfica, Chelsea and Villarreal joined Liverpool, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid and Manchester City who have already booked their place in the final 8 last week.

According to a statement by Uefa, the 2021/22 UEFA Champions League quarter-final, semi-final and final draws will begin at midday CET on Friday 18 March at the House of So far, most people consider Bayern Munich, Liverpool and Manchester City as the most dangerous team in the competition at this stage. But to me, Chelsea FC are the most dangerous.

Apart from the fact that they are the defending Champions of the competition, they hold three phenomenal records that makes them an opponent no one would want to face.

Record One

In the last round, bar Chelsea, no team managed to win the tie both home and away. Thomas Tuchel and his players continued to show everyone that they are the masters of knockout football as they beat Lille at home and away with an aggregate score of 4-1.

Record Two

The 1-2 win over Lille yesterday was Thomas Tuchel's 32nd win in his first 50 Champions League games. This is now the new tournament record of competition as he beat Zinedine Zidane's 31wins in first 50 games.

Record Three

Since Tuchel joined Chelsea, he's only ever lost one Champions league knockout match - the second leg against FC Porto en-route to winning the trophy last season.

Chelsea have become masters at winning in knockout games and that makes them really dangerous.

When the Chelsea manager was asked who he would want to face in the quarterfinals, he replied:

"I want Chelsea to be the team that no one wants to play."

He can be rest assured that all the other 7 teams that have qualified will be looking at the possible outcome of tomorrow's draw and hoping they don't have to face his Chelsea team.
