  1. Ashley Cole looks like he's been smoking weed, lol.
  2. It's far easier to beat Barcelona over 2 legs than in 1 final. Primarily because you can use one of the legs as an all out defensive effort, similar to what United did in 2008 and what we did in 2009 in Barcelona. If you can come away with a 0-0 you can be a bit more expansive in the return leg; but in a one off game you have to go at them and that makes the task much harder. If we had to face them I'd take the semi finals as the best possible time to face them.
  3. All time: Pele and Eusebio Current: Kalou Chelsea: Probably Makelele, although I like nearly everyone who's played for our club
  4. Any chance you can translate some of that for us? Looks an interesting read
  5. I dunno, I got my stats off the UEFA website. 15 km is somewhat amazing, thats 75 runs up and down the pitch.
  6. Apparently his dislike of English football stems from the Heysel disaster.. where he of course was playing for Juventus.
  7. Just answered my own question. Surprisingly, Mata ran the most out of any of our players, 11.5 km. Essien 'only' managed 10.3 km.
  8. Essien must have shed a few kilos tonight. Does anyone have stats on the distance he covered?
  9. Thats great and all but he's not untouchable. If he dicks around with the senior players he'll be shafted and get the sack, should he retain the job next season.
  10. APOEL, Benfica or Marseille would be awesome draws for us in the quarters. Milan wouldn't be too bad, I hope, but we're proper fucked if its Barcelona, Real Madrid or Bayern. And knowing our luck with draws it'll be one of the latter 4
  11. Excellent performance, but I'm still not convinced we've turned a corner. This has been the pattern of our team for the last 18 months or so, we get a great result in a big match but then turn around and drop points to lower mid table teams in the Premiership. Drogba was excellent, Terry led the defence adroitly, Ramires and David Luiz and Ivanovic also turned in excellent performances. Mata, Lampard and Cole were decent today, Essien was a tad disappointing as was Sturridge. The big suprise is that Bosingwa actually defended okay today. If he can do that on a regular basis I'm all for keeping him at the club.
  12. Drogba giving them a taste of their own medicine
  13. Ban this Neanderthal. FYI mate, Paleolothic humans were far more intelligent than what you've displayed
  14. Right, not sure why Mikel didn't start.
  15. Really, Sturridge? May as well have Salomon in there.
