Chelsea keeper Cech has no problem with Man Utd pairing

Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech has no problem with their Champions League quarterfinals draw against Manchester United.

The goalkeeper watched the draw prior before training at Cobham this morning as he prepares for the visit of Manchester City this weekend, and was not surprised to see their city rivals United follow us out of the pot.

"If you want to win the Champions League you have to beat anybody, so at any stage it was clear we were going to play one of the English teams," the 28-year-old told chelseafc.com.

"I said before the draw I don't really look about possibilities of who I want to avoid or get, we know them, they know us and we know what to expect. We know Old Trafford quite well, we've beaten them a few times, and they've beaten us a few times so we can both treat it as an advantage."
