Chelsea's title-winning season only rated a 'seven or eight' by Fabregas

Chelsea star Cesc Fabregas has given the Blues' league-winning campaign a moderate 'seven or eight' out-of-ten rating.

The 28-year old midfielder believes Chelsea's defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the last-16 of the Champions League has somewhat taken the shine off a season which has seen the London club claim the Premier League and Capital One Cup titles.

Fabregas told Spanish radio station Cope: "If I have to give it [our season] a score, I'd give a seven or eight. It has been a great season, winning two trophies.

"The only blow you can think about was the tie against Paris Saint-Germain. We were solid, consistent and we have competed very well, but that second leg is the negative thing I most remember from the season."
