Ramires: Chelsea scrutiny brings pressure

27 October 2010 16:00
Ramires has revealed he feels under more pressure at Chelsea than at any other point in his club career. The Brazil midfielder has impressed since Carlo Ancelotti signed him from Benfica towards the end of the transfer window. But he admits the scrutiny he has experienced at the Barclays Premier League champions is a step up from that which he was under playing for their Portuguese counterparts and Cruzeiro before that. "At Cruzeiro and Benfica, there was also huge pressure to get good results," the 23-year-old explained. "The difference at Chelsea is that the level of visibility is so much greater. "That means you're singled out more when you play badly and there's more hype when you play well."
