Almost anything that can go wrong is going wrong for the Blues at present, with tonight's Group E defeat to Bayer Leverkusen the latest calamity. Chelsea were heading for victory until the 73rd minute but conceded a stoppage-time goal to lose 2-1 at the BayArena. That followed another late defeat to Liverpool, their third loss in four Premier League games.u00a0 Villas-Boas acknowledged confidence was low: "That's when they expect the manager to inspire them. "That's my job. That's my task, to inspire these people and motivate these people. The responsibility is mine."
