Chelsea will not fear Barcelona, insists Claudio Ranieri

Former Chelsea boss Claudio Ranieri believes his old side will not fear holders Barcelona in their Champions League semi-final on Wednesday.

The Italian says the Blues will "respect" the Catalan club, but must try to attack quickly without worrying about possession.

Ranieri adds that Chelsea will need a solid defence to deal with not only Lionel Messi, but Xavi Hernandez and Andres Iniesta too.
