Naaaah, let's wait for the final when we go through first to say it

Annoyed...I would do so many things now and tomorrow but I gotta study and I also haven't seen a certain girl for a while now

I don't find them that similar though

I doubt that the ref will help Barca tomorrow. If 2009 didn't happen then I wouldn't be surprised, but it would be too much to steal from us after something like that. Well at least I hope...if we lose, I hope it's a fair loss, but I think we will do it tomorrow

Barcelona vs Chelsea - Semi Final preview Mention the year 2009 to any Chelsea fan and you will immediately see the pain in his eyes when the memories of 6th of May return. Probably the biggest injustice in the history of European football and yet Chelsea were labeled as bad guys of football after it. Hiddink picked a defensive approach into the game with the decision to defend even when Barcelona had a man less which was used to label Chelsea once again, the enemy of football. Not only that our players have felt the injustice of the Norwegian referee but they also felt the injustice of people attacking them for their defensive approach and were almost saying it was right for the ref to not to give a penalty or were either looking away because "football had won". Therefore, after that match, many Chelsea fans along with players grew a lot of hatred towards Barcelona because many people would say, injustice hurts the most. They grew a hatred that, if properly used and sparkled, can help us tremendously on our road to Munich and writing the history yet again. Let's be realistic, it's not going to be easy and what people need to remember is us reaching the CL semi final at all is quite an achievement so even if we lose at Camp Nou and finish our CL episode for this season we should still be very proud of the boys. It was not easy, but we've proven everyone wrong. We were criticized the most, yet here we are - the only English team still in the European elite competition while media darlings from Manchester struggled even in Europa League. But, this is also a great chance we have to win the CL and finally fulfill our dream and lads, dreams do come true! We have a good result from the first game with Catalans not being able to score an away goal so if we score one on Tuesday they'll need three, and as we've seen, without Messi, Barcelona don't have a regular goalscorer and Leo has looked rusty in his last 2 games. Their players are also coming into our match from El Clasico, another match they lost while we on the other hand have managed to rest a lot of players and still remain undeafeated. Something, as small as this can be decisive in a match as big as the one this is about to happen. Even the slightest mistake or bad positioning can destroy the whole tower built throughout the time and Chelsea fans are right to be optimistic about our chances. How will we enter the match tactically? Well, if we defended against them at home, I'm pretty sure we'll do the same now since it has worked and we have a 1:0 lead from the first match. But honestly, I don't care if Roberto plays 5-5-0 if we go through and I'm pretty sure most of the Chelsea fans think the same. So far, Robbie has done well with his tactics and I'm pretty sure he'll do the same again. Ivanovic, Ramires, Meireles and Ashley Cole will walk the thin ice as they are 1 yellow card away from missing the next game which hopefully will be in Munich. As for Barcelona, Puyol and Mascherano are in the same situation. It's definitely a good thing to have their 2 defenders in that position. We have a positive record against Barcelona in the CL won 4, drew 4 and lost 3. We are also the only team to have scored in every match in the CL and we are the side that dealt the most defeats to the Catalans - 4. We are also a team against which Messi has never scored in the Champions League - 7 games played, 0 goals. Well said lads, and fully agreed. What I'm about to say, comes from a neutral point of view, not as a Chelsea fan. For me, European football doesn't need Barcelona lifting the CL trophy again. Why? Because they have made football boring and predictable and I don't enjoy it anymore like I used to couple of years back. Football needs a new European Champion because no matter how good is something you eventually get bored of it and I for one (speaking as a neutral still) have got really annoyed by the all talk of Barcelona's invincibility, amazing Messi, tiki taka football and some crazy statistical numbers being thrown in. It's time to change things, and Chelsea have the opportunity to do it. Chelsea have the opportunity to be the first London team to lift that amazing trophy and for that, we need to do what many look at as impossible. Well, let me tell you something you dear TV pundits and media experts, that's how bloody legends are made! Let's give the world something to remember on Tuesday and spit into the faces of all of those doubting, criticizing and attacking us and you now why? Cuz we are famous CFC and we don't give a FUCK whoever you may be! Keep the faith. Hope you like it, it's been a while since I wrote my last article so I may be a bit rusty.

and this God help UEFA if we don't get a fair ref...

Wrote around 70%. Gotta visit my doc to finish some little things, I'll publish the article in 2-3 hours.

RVP deserved it more or less...he's been amazing for Arse this season... as for Walker...he's done well for Tottenham also and impressed me though lots of people here look at him as a younger version of Bosingwa...we'll see what he'll be in a couple of years but my guess is a great right back.

Well to tell you honestly, if I was a player looking to sign for a certain club, I would check a couple of forums to see what they think about me

Well perhaps for a certain amount of money I can pull a few strings...

Would love to see the look on Edwin's face if we score another goal form our only shot and win the match 0:1

Aye.

If a ref awards them something in that match god (won't) help him.

Haha you dawg!

I can do it if it's acceptable to submit it tomorrow.

I used to hate on it to but then I.....lol

They shall rise from the ashes stronger then ever like a phoenix!

Of course he is fit That man can take multiple arrows to the knees and still torture the opposition

That's a good shout, but I personally this that system we are using now is better. If you want to read the pre match talk, simply start from the 1st page and you can easily notice when the match has begun. It's also funny to read how we react to certain things on the pitch Chatbox can slow down the forum, especially when there are a lot of people here on matchdays.

Hah sorry mate but next time make sure you check everything. You can rework it, there's time until Sunday evening

Happy birthday to my favorite geezer

Are you the rover from sportgfx? Welcome to the forum mate and enjoy your stay

Some lovely stuff guys! Nice work, but I said 500x500 is the minimum size allowed so I can't count it. I really like the style though

Crazy, first we play them, beat them with no red cards or penalties awarded. Then Real play them, beat them with no red cards or penalties awarded. All in couple of days Aye. I want to see our players celebrate the win with Barca's anthem in the background and all of Camp Nou watching at us

Well done Real. Ah feels good seeing Barcelona loose 2 times in the same week, especially if one loss is from us and the other one that losses them the La Liga title
