    I think the prospect of facing Mourinho would be interesting for Chelsea fans, but I'd rather see a Real v Barca final - hopefully without the diving theatrics/ questionable ref decisions.

    Chelsea outplayed with 10 men?! Chelsea might as well forfeit their semi final against Barcelona:rofl: Absolutely no chance against Barcelona with that display.

    It's like watching a united game when they win 1-0 and play terrible.
    This has probably been our worst performance, but who cares, we're through.

    I certainly wasn't buzzing at the end of the match like I was vs napoli that's for sure.
    Now for barca...

    That's almost guaranteed when Real and Barca play any match though

    Good luck against Barcelona, lads, but I reckon you'll be needing this at the end of the tie.

    Really poor from Chelsea. Benfica, had they taken their chances over the two legs, should have been the team going into the semis.

    If that Benfica player had slotted a pass through to a colleague, rather than gone for the shot, in the last few minutes, Benfica would have gone through.

    Kalou was piss-poor, laughably bad. Torres had a bit of a stinker too.

    Play like that and Chelsea will get a proper mullering against Barca. Apply some lube to the arse, lads.

    Why bring United into this? Obviously we were piss poor in Europe this season but I'm here to talk about Chelsea in this Chelsea match thread.

    Do one, son.

    Trust me, Yannick still would have missed if Oliveira played it to him...

    The lad certainly has an engine. Wouldn't mind putting some Ramires into my car instead of being ripped off at the petrol pumps at present. Ramires should be a type of fuel for cars, tbh.

    What team do you support, out of interest, and why do you say that about Yannick??

    Benfica blew it tonight and that particular pass should have been made.

    ?

    Regarding the match, yes we were pretty ****e, but there isn't a team in the world that can outplay Barcelona over two legs - we need to grind something out like we did today.

    Oh and karma needs to hurry the **** up. :mad:
