The Chelsea Thread

[Jak]

Valdes should have done much better imo.

his positioning was maybe a little off but I don't blame him for the goal

 

[BlueHeart26]

WE MUST NOT let players get one vs one against Cech. Pure luck Sanchez and Fabregas didnt score.

Just feel if he went with his hands rather than trying to karate kick it away..

 

[ariandi]

briliant play by cech i think..

hope we can score again..

 

[CJ]

Yeah but it isn't. Its a well deserved lead. Chelsea need another now and try not to concede.

Wow. What game have you been watching?

I believe he's using that new TV that comes with blue tinted glasses.

If i was a Barca fan I'd be tearing my hair out if my team dominated like that and missed so many chances.

Did say earlier today that Barca are vulnerable to counter attack.

Yup that's one thing I think that we can all criticize , that is their ; profligacy . Its virtually every game they are quite wasteful with their chances but they usually get the goals anyway even if they are quite wasteful but just , maybe it could be detrimental .

Totally agree. Messi usually scores in the last 10 minutes too.

Though not the most exciting of matches it's thoroughly engrossing. First 10 minutes I gave up trying to count the number of triangles Barca had passed. Excellent goal by Drogba though

 

[maxy67]

Drogba is ridiculous.... Been feigning injury the whole game.

 

[ajt09]

How many shots has Cech had to save 2nd half?

 

[rephlex]

gotta say, chelsea fans have the shittest chants of any team i've ever heard

singing chelsea at several different pitches is ******* wank

0/10 for the chants

 

[ajt09]

Wow. 88% pass completion for Xavi.

 

[rephlex]

Gotta say, assuming the score doesn't change... really impressed with Chelsea. The defence and keeper were solid, the amount of blocks from Terry and Cahill... brilliant stuff. Plus the mid playing together, and Drogba having a good game, despite the acting.

Yes, Barca could have scored a couple, but they didn't... Need to be solid at the Camp Nou and hope nobody gets injured on Saturday.

 

[markodragojevic]

GEEEEEEEET IN YESEEESE!!!!!!! I KNEW THEY WOULD WIN

 

[ajt09]

Cole MoM-just for THAT clearance. But all of Chelsea's D should get MoM. Barring one or two nervy starts pretty much smothered Barca.


And a big **** off to ITV.com for twice ******** up the online connection during the match. epecially during the very last minute. would've thought they'd learned after the screw up during a certain cup match few years back

 

[Subtle]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

 

[Joel`]

Congratulations Chelsea. Took your one and only chance and Barca waste numerous ones. Would expect Cech to be having more balls flying at him than GC on a Saturday night next week, and don't think they'll be so amazingly wasteful.

 

[BlueHeart26]

oh......... so close.


good result. now we should not get carried away. the hard part still remains.

 

[sanketutd]

Well happy for Chelsea! Brilliant Defensive performance coupled with some horrible misses from Barca but anyway well done and do the same next tuesday!
