What a miracle recovery by Ballack lol.

Barcelona should have had a penalty when Henry was brought down by Bosingwa.

that's 3 of us then

Blatent penalty, Henry was turning and Bosingwa pulled him over, clear penalty.

thought the ref missed quite a bit tonight

I did, the Chelsea boys were at it against us aswell at the Bridge, I never really noticed them do it before Hiddink (apart from Drogba).

Also, I thought Henry should have had a penalty. Blatent.

Completely forgot about the footy tonight and just cought the last 5 mins or so. Can't believe Bojan didn't stick that away, why were Eto'o and Lampard took off?

Just as special as your prediction for the Inter-United match.

Barca have a marginally important game on Saturday.

I know heading isn't exactly a strong point for Bojan and players alike but he should have stuck that away.

Lucky get, I watched it all.

Chelsea defended well and they'll be pleased with a nil nil. Obvious point but it's on a knife edge and if Barca score...

That's the last 3 semi final games that Barca have failed to score in - you've got to expect them to get one next time and on that basis so I imagine Chelsea will need at least 2 goals.

Awful game last night, Chelsea long balled it all night and Barca tried to play football. Good reult for Chelsea but the tie is still in the balance, Barca are are just as dangerous away from home.

Surely the return leg won't be as bad?

So, where are all these Spaniardo's who reckoned Barca would demolish all before them?

Put a very good side against them who can also defend and they struggle.

Yes, they still could go to Chelsea and win or get a score draw, but I didn't see anything of Messi and his team that would make Chelsea quiver in their boots. I think Hiddink will be quietly confident after last night's showing.

The test will be when/if Chelsea push forward, its easy to defend when you have no attacking intent.

Because the game was poor and they were both poor

What a poor game last night they should have just shook hands before the game and called it a 0-0, Apart from the one chance Dogbreath had Chelsea never had any intention of attacking the Barcelona goal and IMO are lucky Barcelona were poor aswell otherwise they would be out already

Chelsea returned returned 2,000 tickets for last nights game.

Florent Malouda.

What....does he do?

He doesn't beat men, he doesn't cross, he doesn't score goals....what is he [ifor[/i?

French. I rest my case.

Ok, maybe the Barcelona didn't live up to the Special One's prediction.

But it was a good job the Cech didn't do the Gomes impression last night. He was fanstatic.

As for next week, anybodys game.

I was in work last night and the game was on the tele saw bits of the game but it didn't look as bad as people are making out.

Think Barca will go through 2-1.

Chelsea's lack of width is criminal. If I had a left-sided midfielder like Malouda I'd ship him off to Spurs/Newcastle/Roma faster than you can say 'United Russia'

Fanstatic? I thought he was quite mobile. You're slipping SO.

Don't tell me - Shut up.

Thats

Shut up banter

I can't be perfect all the time


Do it Banter.
