Shevchenko has failed to shine under new coach Avram Grant despite the introduction of a sprint coach and different training techniques.

The striker had to settle for a place on the substitutes' bench until the second half of their 4-0 defeat of Rosenborg in the Champions League on Wednesday night.

Chelsea's billionaire owner Roman Abramovich was convinced that Grant was the man to get the best out of the club-record signing but so far there has been little recognised improvement.

And Shevchenko told Sportske novosti: "We had good results last week, so it's difficult to complain. I'm not happy, but what can I do, I keep working and being quiet."

The Chelsea star was also asked about the club's interest in Croatia midfielder Luka Modric, but Shevchenko replied: "I know that Modric has been mentioned, but I don't know anything more about it.

"I come to the training or match, and then I go home. I'm not interested in what's going on up there in the offices, neither would they tell me anything, even if I would ask them."

When asked whether Modric would fit into Chelsea's team, Shevchenko said: "I failed fitting into the team myself, so I don't have the right to talk about other guys."
