Chelsea Women's defender Magdalena Eriksson has warned and reminded her teammates of the 'qualities' former Blue Ramona Bachmann possesses ahead of the reunion during PSG UEFA Women's Champions League clash.
The Blues, who exited the tournament in the group phase last season, will be looking to at least qualify for the knockouts in a group which consists of PSG, Real Madrid and unknown Albanian minnows Vllaznia.
First up on the agenda though, on Thursday evening is the Parisians. Despite missing Marie-Antoinette Katoto, the likes of Lieke Martins and others have been name-checked by Eriksson as the ones to watch in this Group A affair.
But on top of the ones initially named, the Swedish international also added her former club teammate and good friend Bachmann to this list. Of course, the 29-year-old has played with her Swiss counterpart during the four seasons she had at the club before moving abroad to France.

"Ramona is the kind of player who can create something from nothing," she responded when asked by football.london about her time in West London with PSG's current number 10.
"She has all those qualities in her locker, she is a great one-v-one player, she's a good finisher, she's very creative, very technical. So, she is definitely one of those threats that PSG have that we have to look out for tomorrow, and we have to be prepared for.
"They have a really talented squad with a lot of players we need to look out for, but Ramona is definitely one." Having registered 24 goal contributions over the four campaigns, she played at Kingsmeadow, as per FBref.com, it's not difficult to see why Pernille Harder's partner has re-warned her teammates about not underestimating Bachmann's qualities.
It isn't just the FA WSL where Bachmann made her mark. In the words of Eriksson herself, a certain two goals in the FA Cup final against London opposition was the highlight and the overriding memory Chelsea's number 16 had of her now opponent for this match.
She added: "The first image that comes to my mind is her goal in the FA Cup final. That was an amazing game against Arsenal at Wembley. My first game at Wembley, she played an amazing game for us and was really important in that win."
