** Uefa Champions League, Semi-final ** *spoilers*

[Shamikebab]

I think Barca have been worse than they were against us last year. Their defending is a little tighter but other than that they've been unimpressive. Messi in particular has been absent so far.

 

[Haydz]

Ballack should be off.

Agreed

 

[G|mp]

Storming result for Chelsea this, Barca have been decidedly ordinary.

 

[Marky]

Whoa 5 minutes stoppage

should have scored then!

 

[St.Josh]

How did Bojan not manage to finish that

 

[Haydz]

Terrible Miss from bojan...

Iniesta is truly stunning

 

[Marky]

He screwed that up so bad then! He had time ¬_¬

 

[BaZ87]

Hleb breaking into the box was like the kiss of life to Ballack

 

[Haydz]

Ballack soon jumped up when the ball was played through to hleb..

Makes you laugh.

Makes you laugh.

Was about to say the exact same thing. What a penis.

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Chelsea in the driving seat.

Well organised defence > Barcas attack

 

[St.Josh]

I can say I was expecting much more from Baracelona not a hugely exciting match

 

[blairw]

That Dani Alves wound me up something awful and I'm a man u fan!

Bets for the CL this week:

Draw 0-0 (Correct Score) Barcelona v Chelsea 12/1 £5.00
Fabregas, C. (1st Goalscorer) Man United v Arsenal Each Way 16/1 £5.00

I usually spread my bets like £1-2 on center halves and such (Vidic has made me some nice money this year) but I'm going for bigger wins this week with my tenner

Good call - quids in for you!
I layed Barca on Betfair as I thought Chelsea would get something from the game, but it's safe to say my winnings are less than yours!

 

[Gustov]

Excellent result, more than happy with that and may i just say john terry was phenomenal!

Great to see Cech at his best again.

 

[Bucket]

Barca didn't play great, but Chelsea got away with a lot of fouls.
Barca aren't used to the way an English side plays, they didn't have the free time on the ball and the time to pass it around in space.

Ohwell

 

[Irish_Tom]

Good result for Chelsea.

Panzer

 

[Scratchy]

I expected Barcelona to score a few but then I also expected Chelsea to at least show some kind of attacking threat.

 

[Shamikebab]

Once again Barca just don't look like anything special against English opposition. Lots of fancy flicks and dummies but zero end product.

 

[BFCTom]

Barca have scored in every game at home this season

Good luck with that

hoho, what did I tell ya?

Anyone else back 0-0 when I posted it earlier this afternoon?
