Napoli v Chelsea: We need another big performance tonight!.

Well this is it tonight for Chelsea it really is!. You know that saying "there's a time and a place"? Well it's tonight at 1945GMT and the place is Naples, Italy.

Chelsea need a big, big performance tonight from the players AND the manager. Everyone is waiting for Chelsea to fail, the press are ready to run more stories of doom and gloom and you can imagine the negative headlines that have already been drafted to run in the morning.

I think the problem for us fans is that we find it hard to believe that we aren't playing well, can't find the right flow to our game and winning week in, week out with the players we have at our disposal.

Forget the Premier League tonight, this is a massive test of our metal and we need all our players to stand up. If for any reason some of them don't, we can expect a long night.

I prefer to remember some of our outstanding European performances ahead of this one. Lazio away, Galatasary away, Barcelona at home, Bayern Munich at home and Valenica away have been great nights for Chelsea in this competition and tonight CAN BE the same again.

Napoli will provide Chelsea a tough test tonight with their attacking prowess but in saying that, they will be worried about our threat we have now we have Drogba back.

Fernando Torres will be unlucky to miss out tonight because like I have said over and over again, given the right service he WILL BE unstoppable for Chelsea. The problem is, he isn't getting it so Drogba will start.

Chelsea need to remain solid and compact without the ball and quick with the ball at our feet. A typical style of play in Europe is to slow the game down and take the sting out of the opposition and their fans, Chelsea could start off this way but it's a dangerous game.

Chelsea need to be quick at getting the ball forward to the likes of Mata to pull the strings and Sturridge and Drogba to provide Napoli will all sorts of defensive problems. If we do that, Chelsea can win the game!.

Like I said, it's time to see the real Chelsea stand up tonight and make a bold statement within Europe. We need big performances from our players and especially from our big players!.

Come on Chelsea - let's put in another great performance!
