Obi Mikel: Chelsea switched off

John Obi Mikel rapped Chelsea for 'switching off' after they were pegged back to 2-2 by Champions League opponents Juventus.

Arturo Vidal pulled a goal back before the break and Fabio Quagliarella came off the bench to equalise for the Italian champions.

"We started the game well and scored two goals and had the game under control," Mikel said.

"They scored one goal and then in the second half we tried to start the same way as we had in the first.

"It was a cheap goal to give away, the second one for them. I think we switched off, we should have dealt with it properly."
