Emma Hayes not dreaming of fairytale Chelsea ending against Barcelona

Emma Hayes not dreaming of fairytale Chelsea ending against Barcelona

Emma Hayes insisted she is not thinking about fairytales as she called on her Chelsea team to play with their heads instead of their hearts as they prepare take on European champions Barcelona. The Blues face the first of a two-legged Champions League semi-final with the Catalans, who knocked them out at the same stage of this competition last season, at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys on Saturday. Hayes will depart the Blues at the end of the season and is desperate to win the one trophy that has evaded her during her 12 years in charge, but is not allowing herself to think about a magical ending to her tenure.
