That's the view of former Ireland international striker Tony Cascarino who scored over 250 goals in his career.
Speaking on talkSPORT, he also voiced his opinion that he would not be surprised to see a Premier League club win this year's Champions League.
Cascarino expects other teams will hope to avoid Antonio Conte’s Premier League-winning side in Monday’s draw.
“Who would want to play against the calibre of managers at our leading clubs?" he said.
“The talent, manager-wise, is just extraordinary and Conte has done an unbelievable job considering he’s lost his main target-man in Diego Costa and Nemanja Matic.
“And they had Eden Hazard out for the early part of the season and didn’t quite hit the ground running.

“Chelsea are a team that a lot of teams will fear and they can upset a lot of clubs around Europe”

“But what a tune they’re getting out of him at the moment. Because Eden is playing as good as he did when he won the Player of the Year.
“Chelsea are a team that a lot of teams will fear and they can upset a lot of clubs around Europe.”
The west London club were the last English side to win Europe's most prestigious club competition back in 2012.
And Cascarino is adamant that one of the five participating Premier League sides could be victorious in the final in Kiev next year.

“I totally see a Premier League team winning the Champions League,” former Blues striker Cascarino added.
“I really think that one of them will turn up in the final and will handle themselves brilliantly.
“A lot of it is about how they’re playing today but by the time we get to February, can they show the same level of consistency?
“All of them have nearly won their groups. Liverpool have won their group too, that is a fantastic achievement."
