Boom or bust this afternoon. I think we will advance but it's going to be very close. I assume Chelsea will park that bus in front of the box and try to hit on the counter. Hopefully, we contain the counter well enough to hold them scoreless.

I can't imagine them doing anything else. You guys are still plenty good to take care of business, but Real is in a much more enviable spot than Barca this week thanks to their away goal. A 1-0 win would get them through. A 1-0 loss in the first leg is tough just because all it takes is that one moment of shaky defending at home and that away goal can be REALLY tough to overcome.

Terry is an idiot

 

[Stupified]

Ugh ****ing Terry. RDM shouldn't play him for the rest of the season for that crap. That is, if he's not suspended altogether.


Hoping for PKs now, I guess. No chance on the attack.

edit: Wow, game over. 2-0 Barca and I don't see the train slowing down.

edit 2: LOOOOOL yes, ignore that!

Terry is an idiot

Agreed, but that was a yellow in my opinion. Barcelona always manage to get magic red cards at home, and then they show the world what they can do against 10 men.

 

[Godfatha]

It's all over but the crying now.

 

[Stupified]

Unbelievable, where did Ramires come from?

Yeah that was a yellow if it was the other way around. Now Chelsea are missing their best CB's. Floodgates are open.

 

[Godfatha]

It's all over but the crying now.

And Ramires scores a goal to even it up. Still, would take a miracle for 10 man Chelsea to take on Barca and the refs.

 

[Vols520]

He kneed him but not that hard

 

[Vols520]

It's hard to root for Spanish teams because the fans are generally racist idiots more than most it seems.

Barcelona is good, but they whine so much it's crazy.

 

[Vols520]

They don't card Barcelona for Anythjng.

 

[Stupified]

But they'll card Chelsea for anything if the crowd roars loud enough.

 

[Godfatha]

If Chelsea pulled a miracle and won on aggregate, half of their team will be gone for the final.

 

[Godfatha]

Never thought I would be cheering for Chelsky.

^How do you favor your chances tomorrow?

 

[Roughneck]

Well Barca, ya blew that one.

 

[Godfatha]

^How do you favor your chances tomorrow?

Honestly, I have no idea. Bayern has been so Jeckyll and Hyde this year. I will say this, Robben is due for a good game and I think he can take their fullback, same with Ribery. I would put it at 50/50, which seems optimistic but I like the play of Lahm and Alaba the last game.

All I ask for is a cleanly refereed game.

 

[ellunitiko]

Fernando Torres! (in the most horrid voice possible). Caught with pants down on basically both of those goals.


Nice game enjoyed watching what I could. Sorry Barca, well, not really.

 

[Godfatha]

Amazing. Wish I could have seen this one live.

 

[Stupified]

Blue is the Color! The best half of defending I've ever seen. And Fernando Torres goes from being the butt of every Chelsea joke to our hero in ten seconds. Amazing!

 

[TylerD]

**** you Barca, and **** you Barca fans. I hate Chelsea but not today!

Suck yourself, homos.



(do you think I made it clear that I hate Barcelona? Wouldn't want anyone to get the wrong impression)
