Interesting stuff from Carlo in post-match interviews, saying Torres didn't have many chances because when he came on, we didn't play so well. He also said he'll play the next game. It's so frustrating seeing the media focus on Nando every game. It's not like he's not getting the chances or hitting the target. We're all behind him as fans, regardless of what the media want us to think.
I'll take second, as incredible as winning back-to-back titles like this would be. It's been such a weird season after that massive dip in form where we fell out of the top four.
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!
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.
