Willian believes that Liverpool have been Chelsea's toughest opponents this season
The Blues squeezed past Brendan Rodgers' men with an aggregate 2-1 victory to seal their place in the final against Tottenham, which takes place tomorrow afternoon at Wembley.
Willian set up the winning goal for defender Branislav Ivanovic to help the Blues go within just one match of tasting silverware, although Spurs have already recorded a stunning 5-3 win over their London rivals earlier this season in the Premier League.
Jose Mourinho will be out for revenge as he seeks his first trophy since returning to Stamford Bridge, and speaking to the club's official website, Willian revealed that he is desperate to win after coming through two epic battles against the Reds.

He said: "Those two games were very tough and I, along with the rest of the team, was very happy to reach the final.
"Chelsea v Liverpool is a classic fixture and to win the tie, especially after two legs, was very gratifying. They were probably the hardest games of the season and there was a lot of relief in the dressing room after we had won.
"It was very pleasing for me to set up the winning goal. It's always good if you can provide an important assist for one of your team-mates, I managed to do that and Ivanovic scored a great goal to win us the game."
