BlueLion. 21,491 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 When we knock out Napoli, I can't wait to see how you lot will prepare for Real Madrid, Bayern or Barcelona. Show some faith and some fucking balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teignman 441 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 When we knock out Napoli, I can't wait to see how you lot will prepare for Real Madrid, Bayern or Barcelona. Show some faith and some fucking balls.Oh you know, the usual finger-pointing and gloom. I'm sure Kalou, Malouda, or Hazard's name will make an appearance in the conversation.I must admit I wasn't thrilled with the Napoli draw. They've got quality, that's for sure. They also have some flaws, and their league form hasn't exactly been setting the world alight. I know this is a different competition from the league, but I do think that league form carries over to an extent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kez 2,727 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 I don't know what you lot are so worried about..we're going to win the CL this year The irony if we won it playing the worst football that we have done for some time, after all the unlucky, heartbreaking campaigns, maybe luck will be kind to us for once?

Sheva. 5,373 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 They lost 2-1 away to Siena in the first leg of the Coppa Italia semi's today.Napoli wasted good chances, and hit the post/bar a couple times. Siena defended most of the game, and took their chances when it came.http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xohgky_siena-1-0-napoli_sport?start=81#from=embediframehttp://www.dailymotion.com/video/xohhem_clip-siena-v-napoli2_sport?start=46#from=embediframe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067 Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I don't know but I agree too that we may win it this year EVEN though we glare playin absolutely crap. But the UCL is all about gettin hot at the right time we HAVE to hit that stride and i won't be surprised if it's toward the end of quarters into semis range. Can't explain it just feelin it, but watch me be wrong as usual don't bother peeps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase 43,479 Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Lucky for us they have been playin shit lately. I just hope their bad form continues in the CL.Problem is they are like Liverpool. They raise themselves for the big games but couldn't against the lesser sides. They have beaten Udinese, Milan & Inter while also drawing with Milan, Juventus and Lazio and all of those teams are in the current Top 5 of Serie A. Against the bottom 5 clubs, they have only beaten Lecce and Cesena while drawing against the likes of Bologna, Siena and Novara.Just to add, our in recent run of form is pretty similar to them:Chelsea's Last 11 Matches in all competitions:P11 W4 D6 L1 F15 A11 CS4Napoli's Last 11 Matches in all competitions:P11 W4 D4 L3 F19 A13 CS3Chelsea's Last 9 Premier League Games:P9 W2 D6 L1 F11 A11 CS2Napoli's Last 9 Serie A Games:P9 W2 D5 L2 F15 A11 CS2Furthermore, with the 3rd and final Champions League spot looking a distance away for Napoli in Serie A, they may actually look to concentrate on progressing in the Champions League.

Nonetheless we definitely have what it takes to beat them and will go into the games as favourites, let's give our squad some credit.Regarding the other stats, I'm sorry, but I don't think there is any point in comparing the EPL to Serie A. I honestly think that Napoli would probably be reegated if the played in the EPL, not because they don't have players that are good enough even maybe to win the EPL but because the competitiveness in every game here is at a totally different level than Italy.

I have a feeling Arsenal will beat Milan, and if Real, Bayern and Barcelona can all knock each other out, there's no reason why we can't progress.

Idiot 71 Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Would be great to win the UCL and we deserve it more than most other clubs BUT I don't want to win it for the first time based on luck.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nonetheless we definitely have what it takes to beat them and will go into the games as favourites, let's give our squad some credit.Did I say they beat Juventus? I would probably be happier to go in as underdog judging by how things have went this season. We have always seem to performed better when our backs are against the wall and people don't expect much from us in the game.Regarding the other stats, I'm sorry, but I don't think there is any point in comparing the EPL to Serie A. I honestly think that Napoli would probably be reegated if the played in the EPL, not because they don't have players that are good enough even maybe to win the EPL but because the competitiveness in every game here is at a totally different level than Italy.In non-numerical terms, I was merely pointing out that our form is pretty similar at the moment and even you mentioned it in the post I quoted earlier. On the EPL vs Serie A subject, I find it harsh and even somewhat crazy to say Napoli might be relegated if they played in the EPL. No doubt the EPL is way more competitive than the Serie A but with the quality in their squad, I'm sure they would be sitting comfortably somewhere in midtable or higher if they were playing in the Premier League at this moment.
