Closed Galatasaray v Chelsea

[BleedsBlue 1,549]

I believe we are. We have the best manager in the world, a very good defense and a gameplan which suits the big game. We can go to a place and keep it tight, we can hit on the break,...

The results we got against the big teams show us that (2-2 v Bayern, 0-1 + 2-1 v City, 0-0 v Arsenal,...).

Bayern is a very good team but not unbeatable, Arsenal gave them a game at 11v11. Barcelona is so-so, and Mourinho knows all about them. IMO, we can beat everyone.

I admire your optimism and belief but it'll be better if we just concentrate on the league instead of the CL. We have a great set of players but just lack the killer instinct of a class striker. We're top of the league and have a strong chance of winning it this year,concentrating on 2 major competitions at this stage wouldn't be advisable as we may lose out on the one in which we truly have a great chance to win.

Winning the league this season will give the whole club the confidence to be serious contenders for next season's Champions League.

Just go out now then ? Do we let Galatasaray kick us out ?

Obviously not but the priority should be the League. All I am saying is that we shouldn't be disheartened if we get knocked out by the Turkish giants.

Really not here to ridicule your hopes but I disagree completely. Chelsea as of now, not ready to challenge in the PL. I would rather play in the CL as it comes, reach semis if possible, make some money & but try to win the PL. There is much better chance, some key players are available for it.

As for Arsenal vs Bayern I don´t think Bayern took Arsenal seriously, then.

Jose might know a lot about many teams but if the players are not available ...Matic for example, it´s useless to tire the team.

Look at Oscar now.

I have an extra ticket for Galatasaray - Chelsea game. If you think to buy you can contact with me.

[Ugur 2]

do these mongs Chelsea. Pricks have been vandalizing the areas around Stamford Bridge with their shit graffiti saying 'Think twice about going to Istanbul' and 'Be afraid, Gala are coming', 'Gala hooligans'. Absolute bunch of mongs.

Isn't it racialism saying mongs about a nation without konowing much about them. This was annoying.

Really, Chelsea is stronger than Atletico ? Are you sure you have seen them play, lately ?

Yes every week! We are a better team then them. They are very solid and organised like us and good on the counter, They have a better striker and GK but we have better players in every other position.

Clearly I was referring to the whole Turkish nation when I spoke about Galatasaray.

Shitting a brick right here...

Well, just watch Atletico in the CL.

That´s all I can say here. since you think Chelsea has better players in every position, I give up.

When you posted that Courtious is better than Cech, that´s it for me, see you.

Hit the road !

Man, this game will be no easy game at all. Since that we are not a great build up team and we much more effective with our counter attacks, these key injuries in the midfield will make it a difficult one. They have have some good players and they are pretty physical. However they are tactically poor and tend to play in an individualistic style, so that can be advantage. Their defence is poor so that can play to our advantage if Eto/Torres are in form and the rest of the AMs. I just hope we don't get injuries in this game. They can be very reckless.

We have better players than Newcastle, Stoke, Everton. Didn't stop them from beating us this season, oh and Basel too. Also in the super cup back 2 years ago we got players better in almost every single position bar striker, they ended up winning 4-1.
