Chelsea fans have made themselves heard this season, but mainly when voicing their disapproval, with chants of f*** Sarri-ball and jeers for Blues midfielder Jorginho.And Sidwell believes the 41,000-seater stadium can be a difficult place to play.Some stadiums get up for the big games more than others, he told Jim White on talkSPORT. But generally, unless theres real entertainment on the pitch, its a quiet stadium.Thats from playing there and going as an opposition player as well.Blues supporters have had little to shout about this season, with the club currently languishing in sixth-place in the Premier League.The Blues were recently hit with a two-window transfer ban and reports continue to link Eden Hazard with a summer move to Real Madrid.According to Sidwell, Chelsea could be in deep trouble if they fail to qualify for the Champions League.They have to finish in the top four. Theres huge pressure for them, they cant go two seasons without finishing in the top four.
