Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel to focus themselves on the pitch as much as possible.
With the prospect of a change in ownership and Chelsea facing restrictions as a result of Government sanctions against current owner Roman Abramovich, there is plenty of speculation and rumours swirling around the club at the moment.
Tuchel said, "We will be competitive and we will be there in the best spirit because we love the game.
"This is what everyone can be sure of and this is what we demand of ourselves. When it's a big storm you dig in and you hold together and hold strong and get through it.
"It's always the best way for a football team, to carry on winning. Of course also for us it's maybe at the moment a bit more difficult because of the noise. There will be some players who feel uncertainty, some will maybe be a bit frightened, some will be concerned. It's normal.
"It's also not only about the players. We have a lot of people in the staff and in the club who are maybe also worried and scared and uncertain. That's why it's very important that we keep the trust and the belief in the training centre, in all of us, and we rely on ourselves and in the end allow ourselves to be the guys who take care of the sport, because we did not cause the situation, we cannot solve the situation.
"So it can also I think give us a little bit the freedom in the end to still enjoy what we are doing and still follow the responsibility to give everything and what we demand from ourselves. This is what we do and I am happy that we can still produce results and performances. We will be on it again to be ready for Sunday."
