UEFA Champions League, Round of 8

Chelsea v Barca final = impossible

pretty sure they will play each other in the semi

Hence why a chelsea v barca final is impossible...

yeah, as if chelsea are going to make the semis. *whistles*

I've seen stranger things in football in my time..... but honestly, Scouse progression from this point is one of them there 'miracles' they talk about.  When was the last time Chelsea conceded 3 at home??  Sym??

he would have been an arsenal supporter then.

Oh snap.  S-N-A-P.

You've done this before (Istanbul, West Ham), but I dunno...... there's something different this time.  Chelsea really were quite stunning.

 

[Sym]

I'd think of a hilarious comeback dibo, but you do go for the scouse, you've suffered enough pain.

ermm last time 3+ were conceded at the bridge
not sure, all the alcohol is killing my memory

4-4 in the league v Villa last season rings a bell though

So really, outside of one of those games you'd call a "freak result", Chelsea are going through.  To be duly slaughtered by Barca.

 

[Sym]

ahh brings back memories of the epic home and aways games we had v them a few seasons back, got through 5-4 on away goals...twas epic

 

[Arabmariner]

(Now hoping for a filth/Barca final and a 5-0 win to Barca)

Wouldn't a 4-1 home defeat in the 2nd leg be more amusing for you?

 

[FFC Mariner]

5-0 home defeats are pretty bad too

Trying to reconcile Liverpool's performance on Wednesday with their European performances of the past (last 10 years or so), and it occured to me (not taking the piss here Scouse fans, calm down) that this is the first time in a long time that they've been in a proper title fight domestically in April..... not the only explanation for what happened, but it adds to the intrigue of it all.

P.S.  If Barcelona's football was a woman, which woman would it be??  I'm thinking Scarlett Jo - unbelieveably good eye candy that has substance.

slightly darker skin i rekon

 

[FFC Mariner]

Hmmmmmmmm... If Barcelona was a woman, I suspect she wouldnt go out with me

LOL

 

[Sym]

she'd be a whore...she scores a lot

(laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame)

 

[jarrad]

Hahahaha.

Yeah, Serious, you're right...
But, if you guys f**k up now,
We'll take our 19th league title happily.

 

[jarrad]

As for the chumps league.
Barcelona have already won it.
Not worried about getting knocked out by Chelsea.
Will die of laughter if we win it from here...

 

[serious14]

Believe me, so will I if Man U do too.  We look a bit average right now to say the least.....

 

[serious14]

Liverpool 2, Chelsea 0 - 28th minute.  Liverpool are _dominating_ - typical European performance by them, and Chelsea are garbage without Terry.  Amazing game.

 

[serious14]

Well f*ck me, it's 2-2 - 58th minute.  _Rocket_ of a free kick from Alex, it's in orbit.

Guus completely changed things up with a first half sub (Kalou for Anelka) and a half time switch around of the formation.  The man is a deadset genius.

 

[serious14]

3-2 to Spartak, Fat Frank in the 76th.

Torres is shit without Gerrard.  Epic levels of shit.

Make that 3-3 in the 81st, Lucas with a deflected shot.  Surely they couldn't go through from here, _surely not_??

 

[serious14]

Dirk Kuyt, 4-3, 82nd minute.  6-5 on aggregate to Chelsea, holy shitballs.

 

[serious14]

This is stupid.  I give up.

4-4, Fat Frank again.
