Woodgate: Chelsea talk dominating Real Madrid dressing room

Jonathan Woodgate admits Champions League rivals Chelsea are the talk of the Real Madrid dressing room.
 
The English defender said: "Chelsea are a fantastic side and they have one of the best managers in the world in Jose Mourinho. He has got them working as a machine, they are incredible. Their success has reverberated around Spain. All the players over here know what a great side they are."

"It is the way Mourinho has got them marshalled. They look like they are close to having the Premiership sewn up and they are going to be up there as well for the Champions League."

"They go forward and they go back as a unit. They are an incredible group of players and their team spirit is amazing, as well. I think that is the main thing for a team. If you have great spirit then you will fight together on the pitch. They are a brilliant side."

"I don't think Betis will beat Chelsea, even though they are at home."

"Chelsea will be too strong for them - they are unbelievable."

Woodgate, who starts for Madrid against Rosenborg in Norway tonight, reckons it could take a Bernabeu showdown to stop Mourinho's men.

He added: "Real Madrid against Chelsea would be some game."
