I'm also backing Madrid because of Carvalho.

Real, so Jose can win with it three teams and knock out Barca, Spurs and United! It means we'll be the only club Jose's managed not to win the CL, but oh well!

YNWA, I think.

At the moment, but Torres is our future.

Pointless, but looks like he's off to United.

We could have won, but didn't take our chances or really deserve to. It may have been a different story if the second leg was at home - like United have got again against Schalke - but you can't complain about that. OK, we should have got that Ramires penalty in the first leg, but we were poor, simple as.

Anelka, Malouda, Bosingwa, Hilario, Kalou, Ferreira, Drogba and Zhirkov. It'll be sad to see Drogba go, especially as he's coming back to form, but I think it's the best way for Torres - as well as Sturridge - to progress.

He's been a fantastic servant to the club for eleven years, but I agree that his time is up. Now we need to find replacements.

Gutted. That is all. United deserved it. Maybe a more favourable draw would have been better, but we simply weren't good enough.

COME ON CHELS!

Fergie: "We're at home and tactically we'll be much the same as the first game. Chelsea may change a bit but we can cope with that. I hope the team steps forward and produces a typical United performance. I guess I thought Drogba may have started but I'm not surprised that Torres has been picked. They've got a lot of good players."

CA: "You'll have to watch the game to work out if we're going to play with a 4-3-3 formation. If possible we have to control the game by controlling the possession. I picked Fernando up front because we want to play with a certain shape. The key is to win. We have to play 90 minutes at our best."

What was Carlo's surprise in the end?

Wouldn't half mind seeing this tonight:

United team: Van der sar, O' Shea, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra, Nani, Carrick, Park, Giggs, Rooney, Hernandez. United subs: Kuzszcak, Brown, Smalling, Scholes, Gibson, Valencia, Berbatov.

OFFICIAL TWITTER: Cech, Ivanovic, Alex, Terry, Cole, Ramires, Essien, Lampard, Malouda, Anelka, Torres. Subs are: Turnbull, Benayoun, Drogba, Mikel, Zhirkov, Ferreira, Kalou.

FourFourTwo have also confirmed this line-up: Cech, Ivanovic, Terry, Alex, Cole, Ramires, Lampard, Essien, Malouda, Torres, Anelka.

Drogba's only scored twice against United, remember. It's a big call nonetheless. Ramires, Mikel, Torres and Zhirkov will miss the semi final first leg if booked tonight. Alex starts.

Henry Winter says Drogba's on the bench.

Mirror: "Only Chelsea team news we have so far is Drogba on bench, Torres starts. Hopefully (for Chelsea fans) a return to 4-3-3." Also, United team: Van der Sar; O'Shea, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra, Nani, Carrick, Park, Giggs, Hernandez, Rooney. Rumour that Drogba is benched.

Don't care how plays, scores or whatever as long as we win.

^ Yes please - especially a Nando goal! :)

Let's make every year count.

Don't like the white collar, really.
