Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas hopes for his players to recharge their batteries this week in Majorca.
Chelsea headed straight out to Spain for some warm-weather training after Saturday lunchtime's frustrating and scoreless meeting with Norwich.
"It is a change of environment to break the routine," the Portuguese coach said.
"We decided to go to Spain and not the Middle East because of the difference in the time zones - it is much more aggressive and the trip is more tiring.
"It will be a different place and a different country, but regarding the work, we will focus on the same things.
"It is a break of routine, nothing that has not been done before. When we come back we enter straight away competition."
