Ronaldinho: Chelsea lack top hitman

Ronaldihno today took a swipe at Didier Drogba and Eidur Gudjohnsen by claiming Chelsea don't have a topquality striker.

The Brazilian forward believes Jose Mourinho's side have a great chance of becoming European champions, but fears a lack of a goal threat could prove their undoing.

Asked if Chelsea could win the European Cup, Ronaldinho said: "Yes, they have great players. My only criticism is maybe they don't have a clinical European striker."

The Barcelona star scored a memorable goal but still ended up on the losing side as his team crashed out 4-2 in the second leg of their last-16 encounter at Stamford Bridge. Ronaldinho insists Barcelona - and not Chelsea - would be lining up against Bayern Munich had it not been for Petr Cech.

He told this week's issue of Nuts magazine: "In the second match he was amazing. If Chelsea didn't have him we would've won the game."
