    watching messi being chased by the chelsea defence reminds me of the old benny hill shows where he is been chased at high speed. the only thing missing is the music! <laugh>

    Anyone else bored with the 10-0-0 formation that Chelsea have been using for the last hour?

    When did Stoke City play in blue?

    Nah fair play to Chelsea, wasn't pretty but they did what they had to. Will be hard to keep a clean sheet away so I feel as if they'll have to score in the away leg

    Victory for football there tonight...and to think people complain about the way Stoke play football. That was embarrasing for the english league. 10 men defending, lump it up to Drogba and watch him dive to buy some time if he couldn't get close to the goal. /clap

    I suppose Chelsea fans will be happy with the result but Jesus, that was dull.

    Fair play Chelsea.

    They have done their job in the first leg but they are gonna need a big performance to keep Barca out at the Nou Camp. Probably need an away goal.

    Still in it though!

    People are wrong when they say Chelsea got it right tactically. Their plan was to defend deep and limit Barca's chances on goal. Barca had 24 shots. It was poor finishing/good fortune that prevented Chelsea from losing; two things that were completely out of their own hands.
    If 2 or 3 of those 24 had gone in, we'd be saying Chelsea got it totally wrong. People fail to look beyond the scoreline.

    Exactly right. On another night Barca would have easily knocked in four of those chances and the pundits would be slating Chelsea. They got lucky and didn't deserve to win.

    Having said that you need a bit of luck in big games so fair play to them. Will they get lucky again at the Nou Camp? I doubt it.

    What did you expect to do though? If you attack against a team like Barcelona then you will definitely get punished.

    I get where you're coming from but Chelsea played to Barcelona's weakness rather than their strengths, at home, in the semi final of a major competition. They got the result which is all the fans will remember so it doesn't matter, but Barcelona missed a lot of chances, on another day them tactics still wouldn't of worked.
