Closed Barcelona vs Chelsea

[Fulham Broadway 16,867]

they have this guy down for the world cup and this years euros so he's deemed fairly reliable. The ref should be the least of our concerns anyway.

They said that about Ovrebo and probably Frisk

[Laylabelle 9,360]

And Poll....and Webb...down for World Cup and look at how they've done/do Poll couldnt keep track of cards and Webb is just odd

ovrebo was never a top class ref.

[ulsterchelsea 3,221]

If you type in tom henning into Google the suggestion bar throws up tom henning ovrebos address who'd be looking for that

Will be very very difficult at Camp Nou in front of 100.000 spectators, but we trust in our team.

C'mon guys, our team deserve one trophy of champions league.

Most difficult 90 minutes in my life.

[chealsist 23]

Hoping to see a lot more of this at Camp Nou when we face off...

First, alexis sanchez chance

[Chelsea Legend 11 4,062]

Luiz traveled with the squad to Spain today and he apparently trained too. Don't tell me RDM is gonna risk playing him tomorrow?!

Highly unlikely with the way Cahill and Terry have played in the last two contests. I would bet it is more precautionary should one not be able to continue

[xPetrCechx 13,563]

Lampard,Didier and John Must Win the CL!

Concerning Frisk, I see him at least three times a week in the gym, naked

[yum 15]

think that guy was the directors son or something...he was never off the screen last week

Judging by his appearance, I think he might be Fabregas' brother. Don't know if Fabregas even has a brother, but they resemble one another.

[Milan 17,857]

To score a goal would be something absolutely stunning, it would give us such a big chance. We will need to take advantage of every single corner or set-piece as we won't have too many opportunities I suppose. Ivanovic's throw-ins are in as well. The lad just needs to be cautious as a yellow card for him would mean a stop for next match (hopefully still in this season).

Why don't they reset the yellows after a semifinal? That is such a dumb rule. That means we could win tomorrow, not get anyone sent off, but still have 4 or 5 players suspended for the final depending on who picks up yellows. Why does UEFA want a team that qualifed for the final to be missing some of its stars?

[Styles 9,790]

We need a goal. If we're stuck in a pattern of constant Barcelona possession with no respite then we're done for.

If showing ambition in search of a goal leaves us more open then that's a sacrifice we're going to have to make.

I love Mata like everybody else but this isn't a game for him because he doesn't have the energy or running power. I would start Essien or Malouda in his place. Maybe even Bosingwa or Bertrand and close one of the flanks.

I agree that they should rescind yellows for the final, not necessarily reds though. If it was Barca and Manure in the final UEFA probably would.

We're going to be open anyway with the size of their pitch. We need mobile players who can put a tackle in - they have to know they're in a game

[diskoviolente 425]

Luiz to come on as a sub and score a bullet header in extra time to make it 2:1. From a corner. Won by Torres.

Agree with all of that apart from Essien, he has no mobility anymore and Barca would have a field day.

Good to see you back btw, hope you stick around

I'd prefer Drogba offside not given, dives penalty given, Drogba takes the penalty, Valdes saves to the post then it rolls over the line Pique gets back clear's it before it goes over but the ref gives a goal

The ultimate revenge.

I couldn't help but laugh at this. That would be the greatest goal ever scored.
