Chelsea midfielder Michael Essien believes new manager Carlo Ancelotti could be the missing piece in their Champions League jigsaw.
The Blues have reached five semi-finals and one final in the last six seasons, but Essien is confident that the arrival of the Italian coach can help them secure an elusive first European crown.
Ancelotti won the Champions League twice with former club AC Milan.
"We are already enjoying his company and methods," said Essien. "Everyone knows we have been in five Champions League semi-finals in six years and one final.
"We are desperate to win the biggest trophy in club football and I strongly believe our new boss can help us do it.
"He has been there, done it and got the shirt for it and we are already getting the vibe from him.
"The squad has been together for a long time and we are all yearning and hungry for more trophies."
