Rambo 1,729 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 So stoked, April 6th is too far away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDN Blue 7,903 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Better not screw this up. Birthday on the 7th, that time, a few years ago, we beat Liverpool 3-1 (and established Branislav 2-goal Ivanovic ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray. 217 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Bring on the Mancs! If we play the same as we did against them recently then we should be OK. Not going to be easy, need a sympathetic and fair Ref with no allegiance to the Mancs.Only downside is the away leg will be another midweek game, so another all nighter if I go on the coach and the club don't do a train. I'm used to it, so will be prepared once again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomo 21,751 Posted March 19, 2011 Author Share Posted March 19, 2011 All of my years of sorrow will be avenged if all that happened!! I see United as a really difficult tie however, and I feel we won't get past them without real fighting spirit. It's also really unfortunate the 1st leg is at Stamford Bridge, because the last three times the 1st leg was at home, we've gone out:2004: Chelsea 1-1 Arsenal --- Arsenal 1-2 Chelsea2005: Chelsea 0-0 Liverpool --- Liverpool 1-0 Chelsea2006: Chelsea 1-2 Barcelona --- Barcelona 1-1 Chelsea2007: Chelsea 1-0 Liverpool --- Liverpool 1-0 Chelsea (Liverpool won on pens)Inter are vulnerable this season without the reign of Mourinho! They conceded 3 against Spurs at home, they lost to Spurs at 3 point lane, they lost to Bayern Munich at home, but they only relied on a last-minute goal from Pandev to get them through! Schalke will be tough opposition for them I reckon.As for Barcelona, if Arsenal can beat them in England, then so can we! :eyebrows:You have forgot the Valencia game in 06/07 and the Jueventus game in 08/09 and the Bayern game in 04/05, so thats 4-3 on my reckoning Plus the only 2 times weve drew 1-1 during the 1st legs at home (against Le Arse and Valencia) we progressed with late killers in the away leg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmax 9,219 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 ffs people the second leg being away is an advantage to us.If things are level after 90 mins at the theater of shite, and the 180 minutes overall (score draw or goalless draw) things go to extra time where we get 30 mins to score an away goal. It's a massive advantage.Let's think things through before proclaiming them to be better off with the draw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeCFC 45 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 'If' or should i say WHEN we win this Quarter final start planning for May 28th as Schalke or Inter will be a mere walk in the park.Inter are no way the team they were last season under Jose and Schalke will be running scared.Chelsea v Barca/Madrid final.I can feel it!

HRiver 1,512 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 I'd much rather play Real Madrid than Barcelona in the final. I'm more scared of Barca's team play than Mourinho's mind games. Jose is not unbeatable, Benitez knocked him out of the CL twice, and so did Ferguson in 2009. I don't think that with Madrid he's as good as he was with Inter last season.The only team that I'm scared of is Barca, and frankly speaking if we play them in the final I will not be optimistic at all about the game.

NattyBlue 44 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 I don't really like the CL but progressing to the next round would be good, my eyes aren't that wide to see us in the final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeCFC 45 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 We can beat Barca in a 'one off' game,moreso it will be at a neautral venue,and our 2nd home.We should fear no one now!. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badboy 1,526 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 I think we have a real chance to do it this year, Man Utd are not as good as what they were in 2008. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
