Great win for them today - all but booking a place in the semi final of the CL. They are 3 good performances away from taking the 4th CL place and limiting qualification to the top 3 in England. Could be some serious heartache for us, or Spurs. As I said before - if it were Spurs who missed out after finishing 4th then it would be perfect, but there is still a good chance we will finish 4th.
I think Arsenal and Chelsea will finish in the top 4 - although I'm not sure in what positions. Spurs have got a semi final against Chelsea and a direct battle in the league and I think Chelsea will dominate them in both competitions.
If you can beat them at home, we can Don't think we'll do it like but it's nice to have the possibility
It's a possibility, alright but it's very remote. Even if you manage to get a good result at home you will have to play at the 2nd leg at the Nou Camp. If their skill does not kill you then the refs will. That's all I am saying.
Yeah I'm only twisting your arm, I don't think we'll get past them but i'll be ver happy that we got as far as the semis and went out to the best team on the planet!
Please , if the benfica team that whupped Man Utd had turned up it would have been game over . They changed their tactics completely and were punished for it but , Chelsea still were not good. Im not worried in the slightest. Look at the performance against the spuds, i know they are as bad as each other but ...... no worries
I think we simply have to forget about the opposition and just work on our game. I mean the team of course. It's the role of fans to worry If we take each game as it comes and go for nothing less than a win then we need not worry about anyone else. It's not impossible. We just have to believe. By which I mean the team again
I'll be cheering Chelsea on vs Barca. I loathe that team, the diving and bias is insane, and the pretentious twats they call fans can go to hell.
Refuted, we stopped them from playing through the way we were set up. Why else would we leave Drogba, Essien, Lampard, Cahill and Sturridge on the bench? We played well and prevented them from turning up . How about credit where it's due, gunner?
Kyle I'd love him to get it but my mind tells me that Roman will have his heart set on somebody already. Who knows though, the only way I see him getting it is if Robbie wins the CL!
The way he's turned your team around though is remarkable. I expected you to crumble with him in charge, and finish 6th-7th at best.
Don't speak too soon, it could still happen . Most importantly we need to beat the teams we are expected to beat; the likes of Villa this saturday, Wigan, Fulham and Blackburn which would give us 10 points and hopefully we can get through to the FA Cup final to give us a confidence boost and get something from our game at the Emirates.
Well I said I want Chelsea to progress to the semis of Europe so they would play more games, and hopefully they would also draw Barca in the semi's as it would= more games, plus a bad beating that would demoralise them, that was before the draw was made, so so far everything's going quite according to plan, and with them playing Spurs in the FA Cup, that makes it even better. There is no way Chelsea are going to be able to handle the Fa Cup, Europe, and the League. Secondly, although Chelsea's form has been good recently, it hasn't been good against the big teams, they lost to City, drew to Spurs who were the much better team, so what do you think Barcelona are going to do them? There's nothing to worry about. Chelsea wouldn't even be able to beat Milan.
With how poor Villa are at the moment, i can see teams looking forward to games against them. They didn't have 1 shot on target on saturday.
And there lies the problem with beating barca in big games. If they dont just destory you then they will just outcheat you/ref will cheat you and you will lose. I think milan could knock barca out though They match up well.
