Barcelona president Joan Laporta is not worried after his side were drawn with English champions Chelsea in the UEFA Champions League Group stage. "It is good to get Chelsea because that way we can get to know each other. As we are feeling so confident, it would be nice if they don't catch us by surprise," Laporta was quoted as saying by Barcelona official website on Friday. "We have started strongly and I think that will be important for ensuring we go into this with the right mentality from the start." The title holders were placed in Group A of the UCL, alongside English champions Chelsea, German side Werder Bremen and Bulgaria's Levski Sofia. "It is a complicated group but it will ensure we stay concentrated. It is important to start well," Laporta said. Barcelona technical secretary Txiki Begiristain gave his thoughts about the anticipating campaign. "Better Chelsea now, because that means we don't have to play them in the second round. We are in the same group, with the same target, which is to win the group," he said. "Werder have had two good seasons and play football like ours, attacking and scoring goals. With Levski Sofia, apart from their physical strength, we will need to tread carefully. Any mistakes could prove very costly."
