Ferdinand said on BT Sport:

“There was pressure on Chelsea tonight because they haven’t been great in the Champions League. You have to get the points on the board at home.

“They didn’t just win, they were even able to rest some players towards the end ahead of this weekend’s game.

“Momentum is key and they’re starting to build that I think. The crowd will be happy with what they saw today. It’s another step in the right direction.”
