5 things that come to mind when you think of Chelsea 

#3 Tenacity

The Blues won the Champions League against all odds

The Chelsea sides that have won titles in the last few years have been far from the best in the world, and at times the club has seemingly been propelled by nothing more than determination and resolve.

The never-say-die attitude was first instilled in the squad by a certain Portuguese manager named Jose Mourinho. Mourinho took over a squad that had won precious little before that season and led them to two successive Premier League titles.

In spite of Mourinho's unceremonious departure from the club after his first sting, the tenacity lingered on and has come to the forefront many times since then. It has perhaps been most evident in their Champions League victory of 2012 where Chelsea defied all odds to be crowned champions of Europe.

The Blues successfully overturned a 3-1 deficit to beat Napoli, played a memorable two legs against Barcelona and then beat Bayern on penalties to win Europe's highest honour.
