Before the "Chelsea" for the fifth time in five years, will meet in the play-off UEFA Champions League with Liverpool, "coach Guus Hiddink said the blue, that in this game for him" would not be secrets. " Battles with "Liverpool" in Europe have become mandatory test for any coach "Chelsea". After Jose Mourinyu Grant and Abraham came Hiddinka turn to fight with Rafael Benitez. "In modern football, there is no secret - said Hiddink. - Coaches know the players, the players know each other well, mentors are familiar with their style of play. So everything is very open and at the same time very hard. Benítez has proved that he was coach of intellect, I await with interest the forthcoming battle. Nevertheless, we are able to plan their actions. Players will translate the plan into action, and, as always, everything will depend on the details of execution. " Last season Chelsea were lucky. Own Jon-Arne Riise, scored in added time of the first semifinal match, eventually tip the scales on the side of Londoners. Fate finally smiled "Chelsea", when the blue twice - in 2005 and 2007 - less "Liverpool in the semifinals with a minimal difference in the sum of two meetings. Like last season, "Chelsea" long gear before you dial the steady progress. And the appearance at the helm instead of Luis Felipe Hiddinka Scholar reported blue extra incentive. Dutchman arrived at Chelsea in January as an interim coach, as well as to continue to work with Team Russia. Since then, the London club stayed 1 / 4 finals of the Champions League and Cup semifinal in England, as well as to reduce the backlog of first place in the Premier League, up to four points. "From day one, I said that we should give the result - said Hiddink. - And the players responded very well. I have been asked to maintain the" Chelsea "in the zone of the Champions League for the next campaign club always played in Europe. More from me which did not require . But now, when we are where we are, we can set higher goals. " Under the leadership of players Hiddinka "Chelsea" has returned the faith of our own forces. In particular - has opened a second wind from Didier Drogba, whose goal at the end of the match with Juventus "has a blue seat in the 1 / 4 finals. "From the very first day I worked with him, and was configured to work hard. He was a good tribute, decisive goals" - opened the coach Londoners. One of the main features of professional Hiddinka considered the ability to squeeze the maximum out of players trusted him. He said that love is the quality of the great Austrian trainer Ernst Happele, which had a considerable influence on its development. "I have not worked with him on a permanent basis, but we met a few times. He was one of my favorite coaches, because they could always make the best soccer player shows his game, whether in the Netherlands, Belgium or Germany." Now it is the quality value in the Hiddinke worldwide. Drogba, lost in the game Scholar form and place in the composition, just one example. But the Dutchman is not inclined to consider themselves a great motivator. "I'm trying to find players who have an internal motivation, even if they are professionals dealing with good salary. This is the most important thing for me - he said. - How would a professional may be a player in the heart of it must be love for football. " The need to distribute power between the national team of Russia and "Chelsea" does not seem to affect the efficiency Hiddinka. After a player and a coach on four continents, is now 62-year-old specialist makes a name for himself in the home of football. "When you work with the Koreans and Australians do not feel a big difference - he said." - The only difference is that the use of their own culture in order to achieve the goals. The attraction of English football is based on the spirit. It likes to play at a high speed, fight, attack at soon as possible and always strive to someone else's punishment. " Hiddinku fortunate in that he came to work in England at the right time. Premier League clubs dominate Europe. Last season Champions League Final was completely in English, and could well be that this year the situation will repeat itself. Hiddink has already won the European Champions Cup with PSV in 1988. If he is able to do so with Chelsea, he will face one of the Happelem and Ottmarom Hitzfeld, who won in the main club tournament in Europe with two different clubs. "Victory in this competition - a great achievement for a club such as PSV, - said Hiddink. - Young Coach of the way I was then, could such a dream. After many years in this profession, when my career is already nearing its end, it was would be nice if we also got to the finals "
