I can say the same about people who don't rate Jorginho (majority of Chelsea fans). But I would never insult them because I am way above that.

Real managed just four attempts at goal in the entire match.
Three shots by Benzema (one was their goal), Chilwell'a back header almost own goal towards the end.

I'm still sitting in the van at work completely miffed at Werner missing that sitter. 

Arghh it's hard not to be negative after watching us play soo well in that first half and still walk away with a draw.

Never the less, it was a decent result considering the performance and how our season started under Lamps.

If we win next week.. I truly believe we can win this competition. There's something about Tuchel that gives me belief.

To be absolutely fair it was more of a Courtois save than a Werner miss.
However the clock has ran out for Timo. That much is true.
I 'm now convinced that the pouring rain stopped us from winning. Everybody was soaked wet.

Not really. When you are 5m in front of a 7m goal to aim at only 2 of which are covered by a keeper then it takes some serious self-sabotage to miss the empty space.

Well it was n't like the Germany miss.
Courtois played a part.

Thought first half we were absolutely outstanding, second half still good but I think we win this next week.

They couldn't cope with us at times last night. Kante was immense.

He is one of the 3 most offensive players now under Tuchel. He should be judged on goals and assists solely. When we play James or Azpi and Chilwell as wing backs and Mount and Werner up front it is impossible to score more than once. And again proven tonight. When I saw lineup I thought only Pulisic can do something here and this is what happened. Pulisic definitely had better game and should stay when Havertz and Ziyech came in. It would be more offensive and Real was there for the taking.

Are you aware Pullsic was on a yellow card and had been kicked blue and black that he could barely walk off the pitch when substituted? we were more offensive immediately the changes were made anyway.

[cosmicway 1,333]

We were influenced by the rain but we also got a bit scared.
We should have looked upon it as a fluke equalizer scored against us by Charlton Athletic and proceed to demolish them.
I expect this will happen next week.

Fuck this snake

[Magic Lamps 11,692]

The question is if they plays this tamely again next week. Most Madrid fans I know look back at this game saying they got away with murder and actually celebrate the result those cocky plastics.

I have no doubt that we could steamroll them again but the team is knackered and can not hold it up full 90 mins. We have to make our patches of dominance count this time.

[coolhead23 1,147]

Damn, we should have won this one ... came out all guns blazing in the first half and cooled down in the second. Still a commendable performance. Should be a good home game. 

Good performances all around and some regular average ones but the stand out for me was Kante. He was everywhere proving to be a menace for the opposition. I recollect lot of fans wanted to sell him in the summer to cash on as he is getting old & injury prone. But looking at his revival this season he has proved that experience is valuable & cannot be replaced. One of teams who could have actually gone for him would had been Madrid and last night we would had been facing a bloody wall

Hope we continue with the good form in the last leg as well. KTBFFH!!!

Pulisic is 20, he has his entire future ahead of him. If he stays healthy is the key.

What a non-story. For one he will get a waiver obviously, two Mendy comes back for them tonlose LB and three Zidane would be daft to pick  his slow old ass again.

Time flies, 22 is still very young for a footballer. I would not compare him to Hazard, but if he can stay healthy, he has all the  ability to keep getting better.
