A pretty good five-a-side team
Graham Potter may have declared that Reece James is primed to become a Chelsea legend, but Stamford Bridge was home to a few more players who hold lofty positions across football's pantheon on Wednesday night. AC Milan giant Paolo Maldini was, of course, in attendance for the Group E match, given he holds the position of the technical director, but a few more were in the stands or on media duties to witness Chelsea's win.
Peter Schmeichel was around the press box with the former Manchester United stopper reporting from pitchside in a role for CBS. Alessandro Nesta could be seen greeting former teammate Thiago Silva ahead of the game and was also in attendance. That pair was joined by four-times Champions League winner Clarence Seedorf, who was working for Italian media.
