Slaven Bilic: Naturally, the English club cluck in Europe - According to Slaven Bilic, poor performance clubs Premier League on the European scene is a natural thing because European football is growing.

It is delivered Bilic after Arsenal, Manchester City and Manchester United suffered a defeat in the group phase of the Champions League. Chelsea became the only English team to win after bending Maccabi Tel-Aviv.

"It's not a surprise. You could lose from Zagreb. It was a big surprise, all Croatian shocked, but this could happen," said the manager. "They also played football there. They are a good team, unbeaten in 41 matches or more."

"They are not naive, but you should know that there are other teams who are also good. Maybe you were surprised when Besiktas rid Liverpool last year. For us, it was not a surprise. A little surprised, but we were expecting and planning, to be honest," said Bilic who last season coached Besiktas.
