CFR Cluj striker Yssouf Kone has already contributed to the downfall of one Chelsea manager and has warned Luiz Felipe Scolari that he could be the next one in trouble at Stamford Bridge.
Kone was in the Rosenborg side that drew 1-1 with Chelsea in their opening game of the Champions League last season.
That match turned out to be Jose Mourinho's last game in charge of the Blues before he was axed in favour of Avram Grant.
Grant was replaced by Scolari in the summer and at the same time, Kone made the switch to Cluj.
Now the Burkina Faso international has set his sights on gunning down Chelsea's current coach.
"I heard that Scolari would go back to Brazil if they didn't beat us," said Kone.
"But if Chelsea don't beat us tomorrow, he will really be in trouble.
"We will try our best tomorrow because it is really important for us to go back home with a result.
"Right now Chelsea are under the pressure, the biggest pressure in the group.
"Chelsea will have to work hard to beat us but it won't be easy for them.
"We will be playing without any pressure. They have big players but we are not bad either. It will be worth more than just three points to us if we win."
Chelsea need to win to ensure they qualify for the knockout stages as they currently stand a point behind Roma and one point ahead of Bordeaux.
But a defeat at the hands of the Romanians and a win for Bordeaux in Rome would send Chelsea packing at the group stage for the first time in their history.
Cluj recognise they have little motivation for tomorrow's game but that will not stop them from attempting to pull off another shock result in Group A.
In their opening game, they went to the Olympic Stadium in Rome and came away with a 2-1 victory.
Coach Maurizio Trombetta admits there is little riding on the game for them but they certainly will not be rolling over.
"Playing against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge is enough motivation for us," said Trombetta.
"Unfortunately for us we have no chance of going any further. But we were outsiders in Rome and won and so maybe with a little luck and concentration, we can to it again against Chelsea."
