    I was there, I don't give a **** about stats. You're quoting some website, I'm quoting my experience.

    In answer to you OP, I think we probably should have won one more but no, I'm not really dissappointed. The league is, was and always will be the number one prize and priority and our record is second to no one.

    Agreed. Prem is numero uno, and SAF is greatest domestic manager ever.

    Cloughie greatest European manager ever in my book

    Barcelona had over 80% possession against you in both games last season so dont talk about possession stats and triple the shots you had as well.

    Well that's alright then. If stats don't lie then Chelsea fans can stop whining about being robbed vs Barca in 2009 when you had 29% possession at home and away. And 90% of your possession was taken up by Drogba rolling around on the floor crying penalty <ok>

    Ultimately Barca will always dominate possession no matter who they play and what the result. Heck, they have the majority of possession even when they are playing **** like they did against you at SB. Beating Barca is all about parking the bus and hoping to get lucky, and the simple fact is that Chelsea park a much bigger bus than anyone else.

    Obviously touched a real nerve here over your epic 2008 victory v the worst Barca side for a decade
