Madmax 9,219 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Very difficult, but that's what's going to make it so exciting. Can't afford the sloppiness displayed against Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ulsterchelsea 3,221 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 A better team than villa would have probably made us pay yesterday. Def needs to be better on Wednesday but I expect it will be. Boys seem to get themselves up for the CL. Torres to start again no matter what drogs situation is, getting sharper in front of goal with each succession of games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiaretta985 131 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 a 2-0 win would be nice, no Bosingwa starting would be even nicer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 As long as the players don't slip into complacency after what happened today and 2 years ago against Liverpool, we should be fine.Also, in all the 5 times we've won the away leg in the CL KO stage, we've drew all the home legs!2003/04Last 16Stuttgart 0-1 ChelseaChelsea 0-0 StuttgartQuarter FinalsChelsea 1-1 ArsenalArsenal 1-2 Chelsea2006/07Quarter FinalsChelsea 1-1 ValenciaValencia 1-2 Chelsea2008/09Quarter FinalsLiverpool 1-3 ChelseaChelsea 4-4 Liverpool2010/11Last 16FC Copenhagen 0-2 ChelseaChelsea 0-0 FC Copenhagen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase 43,479 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Just a little bit team news of some sort on Benfica; Jorge Jesus made 3 changes at the weekend in their 2-1 win over Braga from the side that faced us. He completely left out Jardel and Emerson from their matchday squad with Capdevilla and Miguel Vitor replacing them. Wondering if that has anything to do with their performance last Tuesday. Also, Rodrigo started that game in place of Aimar as the latter was serving a suspension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, for the game against Chelsea, we just have 1 central defender: Luisão. Miguel Vitor injured too.We must play with Javi Garcia and Luisão with central defenders.

magic weeds 446 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 NoOook. Thanks.By the way, this is no April Fool joke, right? lolIts true mate, Jardel and Garay are injured. They have just one CB availbale for the Chelsea game. JJ said he has confidence in Emerson so probably he will be played at CB alongside Luisao. I just hope its true. Torres will send Emerson to the bins. Meh, that guy is just too slow. Or is it Ramires that was just too fast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
