You don't know **** about football if you accept the Barca way only.

IDK why you guys even respond. He clearly wants to make you react so just ignore him.

Because I'm tired of retards. I want to make the world a better place by enlightening them. I should stop though really, as it is truly pointless.
 
Not a bad result, not the best either. 1-1 would have been a better foundation for the second leg. We're still there, and I'd like to think we are favourites just because we're playing at the Bridge. Let's see how we are with the injuries though.

Please sell Ramires in the summer. Can't believe how poor he is.

I think the problem with Ramires is that he's competent at everything. He can tackle, he can shoot, he can make interceptions, he can be neat in possession.

He's not actually good at anything though. In a two man midfield, he's a luxury player that you can afford: play him as the holder and he isn't good enough defensively, play him as the distributor and get ****** because his passing accuracy is shocking, play him in the Lampard role and he can't finish.

So - sell him. :P The thing he is one of the best at is running like a ******* horse. But running means very little in football unfortunately.
 
Can't help but think Jose put his eggs all in one basket with this leg.

Chelsea will have to be more open at some point and Atletico will know that... therefore they will probably score anyway and their goal counts for more at your place. 0-0 real risky.

I'm still in two minds as to whether this is a good or bad result for you. Something is telling me more the latter... a goal counts for a huge amount away from home.

Obviously who am I to question Jose, but I guess we'll see next week. Lampard and Mikel out for you next week is a huge blow.

Yup. Second leg is going to be a horror. Even if Chelsea scores they're not safe, and I don't see them scoring two, not vs. this Atletico. That and Terry, Mikel, Lampard, Cech, are all out.

On paper its looking pretty grim, but this squad has pulled through much worse. If Chelsea are one thing, they are resilient as ****.

I'd say it was a poor result for Chelsea but looking at the team that came out it was to be expected. Played very negative and just aimed for the draw, Jose put everything into relying on the second leg and if Hazard isn't back along with the players missing out it's not looking brilliant for them.

Wouldn't surprise me if they pull out a result though, this style of football is horrid to watch but effective at times.
 
Jose's semi final record is very tight, one goal usually decides it. Atletico being away will suit them, especially with you missing so many players. Advantage Atletico.
 
Even though we are missing quite a few players in the next leg we wills till have a solid defence in azpi-cahill-brana-cole only thing that would be a bit iffy is the midfield
