Yeah i know we should all be supporting English clubs in Europe blah blah blah, but i really hope Barca dish out a footballing lesson to Chelsea tonight.
It is difficult to not see Chelsea scoring, but hopefully it will be a case of how many Barca get  ;)

The winner of this tie will win the final, imo.

Wouldn't be so sure- I actually think it will be a Chelsea Arse final with Arsenal winning

Want Chelsea to win tonight & Arsenal to win 2moro.

gogogo Blues!!!

Same here will always support the English clubs, apart from one.   ;)

Really hope that happends, nonetheless they will all be great fuckin games!

I am hoping for a Barca-Arsenal final...2 teams that can play ridiculously good footie...(though they probably won't in the final :) )

[ X ] Come on Chelsea!!!!

[  ] I sure hope Messi's legs don't get broken after his antics against us a few years ago

Antics?

I want barca to win, but am on chelsea (draw no bet) @ 4.00. Win win

Barca for me purely from a betting point of view.

1.74 seems more than generous at the nou camp

Liverpool ftw

this for me.

Dont say that they wont be!

im hoping arsenal get barca and stomp all over them, revenge from last time :D

Graham, Arsenal will win it.

;)

Easily imo :D

Going to go for a Barca win and poss Iniesta or Xavi to score first.  Tempted by Keita to score 1st at 42, not the worst bet ever, he's score a couple in the CL this year already.

gone for a 3-2 Barca win.

Barca 2-1 Lampard 1st scorer

Barca (-1) @ 3.3

Drogba's wasted a great chance there.

lol Drogba falls over the penalty box line and puts his arm up  for a pen

Chelski look Desperatley Average in this game, Barca pissing all over them. Just a pity Henry is too shite to put Chelski to the sword!

Henry has been excellent for Barcelona this year- Only a matter of time before he scores

I doubt we shall see if your correct mate, Alex into the back of Henry's head, and Henry currently laying on the desk out cold!

Off for treatment, back on pitch now, looks shaken tho.

Right 70 mins gone 0-0, get that kunt Henry off, and get Bojan on the pitch!

Chelski have 11 men behind the ball now, can they hold out for 20 mins!! Lets hope not!

Chelsea are doing very well to contain them- its back against the walls kind of stuff which for a CL semi final is kinda embarrasing but then again it is one of the best Barca teams in their history

Fuckin moron, he take Eto'o off for Bojan!

Fekk me, Bojan misses a free header in 90th minute!

He could have made me a Leg-end on here!

Full Time 0-0!

Highly Highly disappointing for a CL Semi final.

Chelski, clearly tried to kick barca off the park for the first 60-70 mins, then stick 11 men behind the ball!

Fuckin embarrassing negative football......

Bring on Thursday night's UEFA Cup Semi's!

lol, how would you play against Barca at the Nou Camp? Chelsea did well IMO.

All out attack,obv

Chelsea did very well imo

Chelsea did well but it was fuckin pish to watch. Hope Barca do them at SB.

Dave your spinning icon tilts me hard! lol

attacking football

Its the only way Celtic know how to play, the beautiful way

Thats why we scored against them at the Camp Nou a few years back!

Yes but my Tom Cruise would kick your HA- DO- KEN's ass any day of the week mate

tbf though, if all the avatars on this page are gonna have a fight ross's one is gonna win soooo easily

What about without Guns tho??

with no guns obv boldies wins by miles.  i reckon he could headbutt thru a wall.

Juuuuuun Bauer could stare at the wall and it would run away!

 rotflmfao rotflmfao rotflmfao

I used to have the same effect on women.

[X] Very happy MrsB has no taste :)

Embarrassing? not really. Managed to get the job done.

It will be embarrassing if we play the same way at the Bridge.

If it was say Blackburn playing Barca in Camp Nou and played like that, id say well played. However the way the media builds up the EPL's "Big 4", there is no way apparent 'world beaters' should need to play so negative, especially in the Semi Final.

Dave, you do talk some bollocks at times ... fuck entertaining the crowd, Chelsea were playing the best club side in the world without a recognised left back, meaning Messi would be free to run riot down the left hand side.

Chelsea ( i hate them almost as much as I hate @rse btw ... remind me to send you a link to a book in which i talk about my murky past ;)) ... but, they went to the Nou Camp with a game plan and carried it out 100%, thus giving them a favourites chance of progressing to the final.

Job well done imo.

Defo a job well done. It's over two legs, we didnt have to go and beat them at the Nou Camp. Guus obviously told them they needed to do a job and they did it.

What the media says has nothing to do with it and Chelsea/Hiddink shouldn't care what the media's opinion of Chelsea is. We're one of the best teams in the world but have hardly played glittering football all season.

It's Hiddink's head on the line and he stuck with his game plan which was to smother Barca, get behind the ball and stay in contention for the second leg. Paid off.

Barca have been incredible at home all season and have been scoring goals left right and centre against everyone with seeming ease. We were the first team they haven't scored at home against all season so hopefully we can make it a harder game at the Bridge and get a result.

If we play the same way at home I'd call it embarrassing but in this instance the boys dun' good.

If it was my team I would agree win(over 2 legs) at all costs and just make sure you qualify-italians and germans have been doing it for decades,

BUT as a spectacle for the worlds most glamorous football tournament it was just utter dross to watch...and I stick by embarrasing that a team worth Chelski's(in real terms what they paid for players is way more than what Barca have paid over last 3-5 years) should have to stick 10 men behind the wall.

All these reply's are from English folk who have an emotional connection to Chelski, or the fact thats its an english team in Europe. However, Im purely just a spectator, and when i tune in to watch a CL Semi Final between Barca and one of the richest teams in World football, id prefer to see flowing entertaining football, Hiddink's Game plan turned the game into a total Farce, and one of the worst Semi Final's i can remember.....IMO as always

EDIT: Ahh Fuck Hairy dude beat me to it!

u talk some shit dave.

as i said, its a game over 2 legs. guus clearly has a good brain.... did you see how he told the team to go about the first leg vs liverpool???? and you obviously saw last night. Different styles for different opponents. That is why you are not a manager, and why you wouldnt understand. Stick to your jock football and hope you get this far in the CL for your football team to have to make different decisions based on opponents sometime.

The second leg will be more open for obvious reasons, just think about it for a minute or two before replying.

Perhaps you should read reply's before making a Kunt of yourself again mate. lol

No need to call someone a Kunt imo - we're talking football opinions ffs.

fwiw what Rookie said was spot on. (I'm not English)

There is also no need to call me a Jock, but you don't see me bring that up. Also i total agree that its our footballing opinions, thats all i posted, yet im being told that "i talk some shit"....again i didn't bring this up.

Oh and PS im sorry i called you an Englishman! I know how insulting that can be lol  ;D

FYP Dave.......IMO as always

I read this post, and I read your previous post. And I stand by my post. Kunt is unnecessary, but I should have expected it from you I guess.

I suppose i should add ...

When was the last time you saw an open, exciting CL semi final first leg ... I cant ever remember seeing one tbh.

Dave if you think this was a bad result you know nothing about football.

I DETEST Chelsea being a Man U fan but they played very well imo. First time Barca have failed to score at home all season- says it all and if their keeper hadn't made an excellent save from Drogba could easily have been 1-0 to Chelsea.

tonight maybe?

I only used the type of Language that you used mate, no need to get all up on your high horse when something doesn't go your way.

Oh no, i don't think its a bad result at all, its a great result for Chelski.

What im saying is, its completely Negative and embarrassing football, and utter Pish to watch. Teams like that don't deserve to grace the pitch in the Final .....IMO as always

I defo agree, i think tonight's game has the potential to be open anf free flowing, provided none of the managers have a rush of blood and play 11 behind the ball this time. This won't happen tho, as both managers enjoy flowing football.

Last night went my way [  ] mate.

It didn't go your way and you are doing exactly what you are accusing me of doing because of it!

Im not accusing you of anything, apart from perhaps not ready post properly, and name calling.

That aside, i said Chelski played Negative and embarrassing football, and don't deserve to make the final, that is all.

If you disagree, thats fine, thats what makes for a healthy debate, could i only ask that you please leave to name calling out next time, there really is no need for it.

Kev said you talk shit too iirc.

I didn't realise Jock was an insult - probably through my own ignorance. If so then it's nor warranted either.

Pretty much everyone is disagreeing with you though - I think the voice of the reason is with the majority.

No I said he talks bollocks ... ;)

So they should have taken the Bayern Munich approach instead? Play good free flowing football and get spanked 4-0?

Entertaining maybe not- good football- YES> a defensive masterclass no less

Its not about what the majority say goes, its about opinions as you said previously, and im only stating mine. Why im being called names is beyond me? perhaps, people are bitter that someone doesn't agree with their manager that negativity is a good way to playfootball.

You do talk shit Dave. I stand by that regardless of what you want to say. Not just on this subject but on many.

As for tonights being more open.. .Of course it will be, its two english teams ffs. Chelsea Liverpool was really boring iirc?

Jock/Kunt hardly mean the same do they? But in your case they probably do.

Are you Alan Hansen in Disguise? lol

Jock, last I new, wasn't too offensive. FFS you call eacho ther jocks on here sometimes, people call you jocks on other threads, but i havent seen others bite at this before!

IIRC the word 'HUN' was banned from use on this forum, as it was classed as a derogatory term for a Rangers fan (this was back in the Fergus days on blonde). It was then claimed that Jock/Tim etc was the same and asked not to be used on blonde (im sure the thread is in the Banned thread board), so technically they are as bad as each other.

I shouldn't really lower myself to your level, for that i apologies to the other members.

LOLOLOL, Jock = Kunt now. Ok, i'll remember this for next time.

Cool, thanks mate.

You'll feel better about yourself too, it makes the world a nicer place when people are courteous towards one and other

I am not your mate, so please stop calling me this. It's about as offensive as me calling you a jock.

Ok how is it you say it?:

Sorry [ ] Mate

Attack the argument, don't attack the person, please.

Cool the name calling.

Last night was a dull game, but I'm sure 100% of Chelsea fans couldn't give a toss.  I want Barca or Arse to win the CL, but I really think Chelsea have a big, big chance - and last night only reinforces my opinion on that.  They outplayed Liverpool in the first leg, and the second leg was just comedy. 

[  ] I'm sure Chelsea give a shit if people thought the 1st leg was boring.

Am I alone in actually enjoying last night's game?

Great atmosphere, lots of talented players on show, excellent tactical awareness from managers and players, and a fair bit of niggle too.

Chelsea got a good result last night, but I don't think it can be called 'great'. If Drogba had stuck away his chance that would have been a great result.

As it is, Barca will likely fancy their chances of nicking a goal when Chelsea try to attack a bit more and 1-1 for them at The Bridge WOULD be a 'great' result.

No Div (not name calling that's his blonde name :D) Your not alone in enjoying the game. I thought it was a tactical masterclass from Chelsea.

Div, I thought it was well played by Chelsea - but it wasn't exciting.  Intriguing?  Slightly.

(was that name calling?)

WTF?

Im not English, i dislike Chelsea & Its not just coz im a "Shrewdie with Rooks"...

but how on earth could Chelsea play differently.

They're away at the Nou Camp, if you dont play defensively you get destroyed.

I thought the tactics were fantastic.

The game was really boring, and i watched the Dogs instead it was so shit, but its not their aim to play good football, its their aim to get through to the final.

If i was playing away at Barca on football manager, i would have played a 5-4-1 formation and tried to keep the score down to 0 or 1 in exactly the same way, its just common sense.

FWIW i think Dave gets treated very harshly and he takes it all it seems with good nature which is even more admirable IMO.

I defo think he has came across alot better on this thread than those arguing with him regardless of his opinions( yep they're just opinions people) actually being accurate or not.
