Chelsea can use the pain of last season's semi-final defeat to Barcelona to motivate them to victory in this season's Champions League campaign, according to former midfielder Gus Poyet.
The Uruguayan, now manager at League One outfit Brighton and Hove Albion, is eager to see the Blues succeed having witnessed last season's controversial exit, when much of the focus was on referee Tom Henning Ovrebo's performance.
"I want them to win the Champions League so badly," Poyet told The Daily Mirror.
"It’s something that is becoming an obsession for everyone related to Chelsea.

"It’s something that is becoming an obsession for everyone related to Chelsea.
"I was there watching the Barcelona game and it was difficult to take. I was pleased that I wasn’t on the pitch."
"But this is why I think 2010 will be their year. The pain of that Barcelona will motivate them."
