!Hazard!

Let's be honest though, Barcelona were really poor. They're lucky they weren't playing Liverpool/Man City tonight or it could have been ugly.

YES

Can't bench Rudiger after this. Just can't

Never thought Willian would be the outstanding player in a Chelsea-Barcelona match. He's in top form atm

Giving way too much respect to this Barca side that apart from Suarez, Busquets, Iniesta and Messi is quite ordinary

I've never seen Christensen so nervous. Growing pains I guess

Those crossfield balls from Rudiger though...top class. Gary would hoof half of them to the nearby cemetery

Good start imo!

Only one long ball to the midgets in the first 20 seconds. Oh boy it's going to be a long night

It better work or Conte might find himself unemployed first thing tomorrow morning

Oh hell no We're going to get slaughtered I'm afraid

What's the point of Fabregas then? I'm looking forward to his long balls to the three midgets

Just tried this in FIFA 18, it worked like magic Alonso turned into a real beast with that left foot on the right side of the box.

At this point I'm very confused about who's actually fit and who's not. I thought Barkley was out for weeks or months and yet here he's training normally. Morata was supposed to be out for quite a while, possibly the whole season, and then suddenly he played in the next game. Luiz has been suffering from mystery injury, or "injury", and now after terrible performances, Bakayoko seems to be having the same problem. Is this all just mind games or Conte's way of dealing with non-performing players?

Same old 3-5-2 with Alonso as wingback will get absolutely murdered and 3-4-3 with two central midfielders wouldn't be much better. I think we need to come up with something new in order to win this tie. Courtois Azpilicueta Christensen Rudiger Emerson Kante Fabregas Willian Pedro Giroud Hazard Conte would shock the whole football world with this line-up and it would certainly surprise Barcelona as well. But yeah, the likelihood of this happening is like 0,001%

Scott is better than Bakayoko

Hudsoon! Show 'em what you got

In Willian's defense he has never played for a manager at Chelsea that sets up the team for attack in big games. How good has Giroud been though? Miles ahead of Morata at the moment in all aspects of the game

Superb! We need to keep up this momentum for Tuesday

I like the attitude. We mean business tonight

This loan is turning out to be a masterstroke. He'll be much more confident and ready next season and in case we don't want him his price tag will be sky high if he keeps this up.

Dembele has been absolutely outstanding in the last 20 mins. I wish we had a midfielder like him in the squad

Jose has a fetish on making attacking players into defensive ones. He's basically trying to turn Pogba into Obi Mikel. The guy is truly Special.
