It has prompted fears that Mata might be tempted back to his native Spain should Chelsea miss out, but the 24-year-old dismissed the prospect.He added: "Yaya is one of the best midfielders in the world. He is the complete player. He can defend, attack, score, dribble, he has great skills and he is so tall and powerful.But even when I was playing in Spain, I realised that Wembley was one of the most important football stadiums in the world because of all its history staging the big matches and so many finals.He told The Sun: "I will say now I'm really sure we will finish in the top four and will be playing Champions League football next season.It is so difficult to defend against him. We have very good midfielders, too, and will try to deal with him, but not just him - all their team, because City are a very, very good side.Chelsea will look to Mata to provide a creative spark against Manchester City at Wembley, but he believes he will have his work cut out against Yaya Toure.Sunday's game will be Mata's fourth visit to Wembley, and the former Valencia maestro already regards it as one of his most treasured stadiums to play at.Mata feels the Ivory Coast international does not have a weak part in his game and must be the first player Chelsea shackle if they are to reach the final.
