Krylia Sovetov Samara coach Igor Osinkin admits he's lost his connection to Chelsea.

Osinkin had a spell coaching at Chelsea as part of his career coaching apprenticeship.

He told Championat: At the time of Abramovich, I watched all the Chelsea games, I could analyse, I knew all the players. After the departure of Roman Abramovich from the club, I stopped.

"Life is unfair, and football too. It shouldn't have been like this. Now Chelsea is not the same club.

"The era of Abramovich? this is really a milestone in English football, before Roman Abramovich this team almost did not exist. I don't wish anything bad, but now Chelsea is different, not native to me. And in those days, I followed the club as if it were my own."
