Pundits on Sterling’s misses
Dublin: For years and years Raheem has been in these situations and he’s not very good at them. When you get into those situations you’ve got to know what’shappening. Gary you’ve done it for years and years.
On the shoulders of defenders you know what finish you will use before you get into that position. He’s thinking ‘what am I going to do’ and he gets it wrong. He gets in some great positions though.
Hasselbaink: He’s not good at finishing when he has time and he has to think. He’s very good at finishing when it’s instinctive and quick and puts them away. He’s brilliant.
When he has time a lot of things go through your head and he picks the wrong execution and that’s what he did there.

Keown on Sterling’s penalty miss
It certainly is (a shocker) One of the players that you look to in this new generation of Chelsea players to be assured and he hits it straight down the middle.
There’s no quality in that at all. No real purpose, no power, comfortable for the keeper.

Countdown to kick-off
Pochettino: ‘We have to treat Leicester with respect’
Always, the game is very important for us. We have to improve our position in the table in the Premier League and we have played a final in the Carabao Cup. But now in the FA Cup also, it’s really important for us.
We have to go to the pitch and approach the game respecting Leicester because they are a very good team. They are doing fantastic in the Championship and of course it’s not going to be easy.
Yesterday Wolves v Coventry was a really difficult game, that’s the beauty of the FA Cup and that’s why we’re very conscious we need to perform well today.
We know we are Chelsea and Chelsea is one of the biggest clubs in the world and that patience sometimes is not easy to get for the fans because they want to see the team performing and winning titles but it’s true we are in a different project now and we need to accept that.
What do the pundits think?
Dublin: This is the last chance (for Chelsea to win a trophy), the players will think that as well. This is a real chance of silverware. They’ve had a poor season their standards are higher than that.
Chelsea will expect a trophy every season that’s what the fans demand. This is about doing a professional Premier League performance against a side they should be beating.
Hasselbaink: It was always going to be a season about ups and downs. They’ve been playing really well against the bigger teams like Liverpool, Man City but when they have to make the game itself they have struggled here and there.
Yes, the punters they want trophies but it’s a different club it’s taking time and you have to be patient. You have to understand a lot of the young players.
They have got a lot of young players who have to develop and they have to take time with. You can see they’re talented but it will take time.
