Chelsea manager Graham Potter gave a press conference ahead of the Premier League game against Everton and was asked about the upcoming Champions League clash against Madrid.
"The feeling is one of excitement, but, you can always lose in the quarter final. That’s the nature of the Champions League. I would rather speak on Everton as that is the game tomorrow and the other stuff is a long way away," he said.
Moreover, the English boss spoke about Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti: "I do not know him personally, but I have faced him when he was at Everton. I know he is a gentleman.
"It goes without saying, the amount of respect I have for him and what he has achieved is amazing, the length of time between winning the Champions League, 20 years, that is amazing and incredible," Potter added.
