ulsterchelsea 3,221 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 thankfully, it didn't pan out exactly, so let's not get too ahead of ourselves here. The same could happen to us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same could happen to usour defence is better than napoli's.v shud give ourselves credit because as chelsea fans, we spend more time worryin the worst rather than being confident Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 4,400 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I could write a lot about how we could win the UCL if Milan win but Milan simply wont win so i'd be wasting time. Barca will score at least 3 and i don't think Milan can go there and score 3 or 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badboy 1,526 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 This whole notion of hoping Milan go through because they are perceived as being weaker is a load of XXXX. Milan are a better team then us and they have much more going forward and we would be the under dogs against them too. I think Milan would be a harder task tactically because they play with a diamond and their attacks are through the middle, its not like we have the wingers to make anything of all the space they will give us making the whole game a bore.

We ain't qualified yet so talking about who we would prefer to face in the next round is a bit disrespectful to benfica.

capriccioso 2,545 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Barca aren't all that! I have full confidence that this squad, from 34 year old Drogba down to the teenage defenders, are amongst the best in the world when motivated.Bring it on! Milan or Barca, we can still win! And Milan, they certainly have some weaknesses in their squad. Alright, their forward line is miles ahead of ours. They've got a marginally better midfield. I'd rate our defences as even, and Petr is a better keeper than theirs. It'll be tough for them.Of course there's the issue of Benfica first. We've got to do a professional job on them first, lets not get too far ahead of ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drogzola 283 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 The pitch didn't help Barca in the first leg. Barca will beat Milan on a pitch prepared for their style of play. Hope for a great game though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 FFS we're not even through yet. This is the exact sort of complacency that nearly saw us drop points on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheva. 5,373 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Not much wrong with the OP's post imo, he's just saying if Barca win we should not even try to beat Benfica But i do agree about not looking ahead and focusing on just benfica, let's hope the players aren't!
