Chelsea players: the fear factor has gone. Everybody now feels Chelsea can be beaten

Gullit, former Dutch international has been unimpressed with Jose Mourinho’s side this season and thinks that they’ve lost their fear factor in a similar fashion to the golfing great.

Chelsea’s defeat to Stoke condemned them to a third consecutive Premier League loss and a seventh for the season.

‘It’s like Tiger Woods,’ Gullit said on Sky Sports. In the beginning everybody who was standing with Tiger Woods knew already that they had lost the game.

‘Now people see him and Chelsea and think: “We can beat them.”

‘They lost that aura of invincibility. They lost it. You can feel it. You can sense it. The players sense that the opposition if not afraid of you anymore.

‘To get that back you get it only by results.’
