Pedro: "Now the most important thing is to stay calm"

London's "Chelsea" continues to struggle to find their game. The "Aristocrats" lost hope of defending the FA Cup trophy they won last year when they were defeated 0:2 by "Manchester United" footballers at home.

However, "Chelsea" midfielder Pedro is convinced that the team must remain calm and start playing as good a football as possible, as important matches await in both the UEFA Europa League and the English League Cup.

"We have important matches in the Europa League ahead, and then immediately the final of the League Cup in England.

Now the most important thing is to stay calm, work hard in training, and start playing as well as possible, because otherwise we will be in trouble," Pedro told the club's official website.

The Spaniard did not hide his disappointment with the poor performance against "Man Utd, who eliminated the "Aristocrats" from the trophy race.

"It was a bad day for the whole team. The situation is currently difficult. In the first half of the match we played very well, created chances to score, but they had two chances and they used both of them. In the second half, our main goal was to create opportunities, but we couldn't do it, so we didn't come back to the match," said the Spaniard.

"Chelsea" will play the return leg of the UEFA Europa League match against "Malmo" on Thursday. In the first match in Sweden, the "Aristocrats" won 2:1.
