All this expectation suddenly being heaped on chelsea does not augur well for the them tomorrow. I think theyve peaked too soon as it were plus after sunday's showing, Barca will not get caught off-guard by anything chelsea throws at them. I just hope Di matteo doesnt make the grave mistake of playing BOTH lampard and Mereilles in midfield. It should be one or the other preferably the latter

No they didn't..
We are the centre of the pitch, we are precise, we are our effort, we are attackers who defend, we are defenders who attack, we are respected by our rivals, we are recognised by our rivals, we are every goal that we score, we are those who always look for our opponent's goal, WE ARE ONE.

SMH, you did not watch the 2 matches, you don't even know who moved on, I don't blame you, you only started watching Chelsea matches when Abrahimovich came.. :lol:

Which game is that exactly? Looking at the jerseys, seems barca is at home & chelski away, meaning u are wrong PAJ. Coz Cheslki not only lost away 5-1 but also failed to qualify (aggr: 6-4)
Chelski won at home 3-1 (in London) & lost away in Barcelona 5-1! Barca ultimately went through, ofcourse... and yes: Figo did torment Chelksi.

At least both teams went down playing football.... You guys will be parking Jumbo 747's and the dimunitive men of Catalunya will still take you out led by Messi and his merry men...cant wait for the game.

It is called tactics... and u need to be tactically astute & smart to effectively use catenaccio. So in many ways, ArseNil & manure are the mugus n this whole thing. Even lousy LooserPool always pulls its weight ahead of Farca... can't blame Chelski for using the most effective tactical layout now, can u?

See the indirect Shot at Wenger's tactical ineptness by Cesc. People call him the professor, I guess his former Captain differs. He might be just a PE teacher and dietitian. :D :D :D :D

Why are you wasting your time. These guys were not yet Chelsea "fans" in those days: they jumped on the Chelsea bandwagon after Mourinho/Abramovich arrived... :D

PS. I an torn between starting Drogba in this match vs saving him for the match Against Arsenal. You know he wants to go out in a blaze of glory as he makes one final visit to Arsenaland. Hmmmmmm.....still pondering.

The key to this first leg is the starting line-up.

I would love to see Essien in this game as well.
