If Milan win on Tuesday, we really need to go for it...

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.

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.

What a great match should be Chelsea-Milan!

C'mon chelsea!

Lol not thinking about about semi UCL, or finals FA or finishing top four..only thinking about Benfica, Wigan and Spurs..baby steps..

Napoli game is an excellent example on how tables can turn in an instant!

In what sense?

They were 3 -1 up going into the second leg only to get hammered

FFS we're not even through yet. This is the exact sort of complacency that nearly saw us drop points on Saturday.

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!

I don't believe we wanted to be hammered...chelsea just play better then us...it was not for the kind of game...I think it was an experience problem!

[capriccioso 2,545]

We didn't hammer them. They were in it for 105 minutes, lets not forget.

no , don't get me wrong I'm not saying yous WANTED to get beaten just that yous could have been forgiven for thinking that after the first leg that yous were all but through and that's not how it turned out. Same with folks on here talking about who we want next when we ain't even qualified for the semis yet.

4-1 is a hammering fella

first, we have to secure the semis by beating Benfica, and then we can talk about Milan/Barca.

Not in my book. A hammering for me is where we are in so far in front, so early that we could play 11 goalkeepers and still win.
