The Greatest Game?

[BlueLion. 21,491]

A lot of people argue the 4-2 wins against Barcelona and Bayern in 2005 were our greatest European performances. But I disagree.

Another result stands out for me from our European history.

Arsenal 1 - 2 Chelsea

Two days after my birthday, we won against Arsenal. All I said that for my birthday I didn't care what I got, as long as Chelsea won. And Wayne Bridge scored that goal. Made me cry

Best day of my life, after so much heartbreak at their hands in the past, this meant a lot.

Shame Claudio went a big mad with subs in the next game lol but that moment then lol

I loved that win at Highbury but I rate the 4-2 against Barca even higher. It was a game which had everything.

My top five European matches:

Chelsea - Barcelona 4-2 (2005)

Arsenal - Chelsea 1-2 (2004)

Lazio - Chelsea 0-4 (2003)

Chelsea - Barcelona 3-1 (2000)

Valencia - Chelsea 1-2 (2007)

The Barca game was a better game no doubt, this just had so much more meaning. It was a grudge match between two London teams, with one team the highly favoured side to progress. That made it special.

[boshman 1,073]

My top 5

1) Chelsea 3 Barca 1 (2000)

2) Galatasaray 0 Chelsea 5 (1999)

3) Chelsea 4 Barca 2 (2005)

4) Lazio 0 Chelsea 4 (2004)

5) Even though i wasn't around then Chelsea 2 Real Madrid 1 in the cup winners cup in 71 must be up there!

I like to watch the Youtube video of the Arsenal match, Some guy edits it and him and a Chelsea fan are in the pub saying thats what its all about, Brought a tear to my eye last week.

Mine would be the 4-2 against Barca, I went nuts when JT scored that header. JT can be bought for 40 Million but his memorys are priceless.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

I think our win against Arsenal was probably the greatest European game, but I think our best European performances are as follows:

1) Chelsea 4-2 Barcelona (04/05)

2) Liverpool 1-3 Chelsea (08/09)

3) Galatasary 0-5 Chelsea (99/00)

4) Chelsea 3-1 Barcelona (99/00)

5) AC Milan 1-1 Chelsea (99/00)

6) Arsenal 1-2 Chelsea (03/04)

7) Lazio 0-4 Chelsea (03/04)

8) Real Madrid 1-2 Chelsea (70/71)

9) Chelsea 4-2 Bayern Munich (04/05)

10) Valencia 1-2 Chelsea (07/08)

11) Chelsea 4-4 Liverpool (08/09)

12) Barcelona 2-2 Chelsea (06/07)

13) Valencia 1-2 Chelsea (06/07)

14) Chelsea 7-1 Tromso (97/98)

15) Chelsea 3-1 Feyenoord (99/00)

I know I wasn't born for 8), but I have the game on DVD, and what a result that was!

[Clevemayer 764]

Chelsea 2-1 Arsenal

Chelsea 4-2 Barcelona

Liverpool 1- 3 Chelsea

Chelsea 4-2 Bayern

Gala 0-5 Chelsea

Valencia 1-2 Chelsea

but number one is Chelsea 4-2 Barca

[BlueLion. 21,491]

I also thought we played brilliant away in Munich where we lost 3-2, even though we conceded those two late goals. Drogba's goal was the best header I've ever seen.

[Clevemayer 764]

must have been pure magic...

The 2-1 vs Arsenal was definitely my favourite as it was against that team that i hate more than all the evil on this planet and suffering combined, specially those 2004 "untouchables" who only won 1 trophy that year (best week of my life when we knocked em out of europe and Man utd knocked em out the FA Cup. Since 1997 they caused nothing but shit for me at school and every time we played em we just simply didn't win and we (well i) got to a stage where i dreaded those games because i expected defeat. I had left school by the time of the Champions League game too which sucks but it was awesome none the less.

Since then, We've had the better of those north london scummers

How I loved the game against Arsenal last season, after they'd taken the piss out of us after getting knocked out by Barca

That was just priceless! The whole 'its the losers oh be a 0-0 blah blah' 4 bloody one hah! At the Emrites made it all sweeter

[Ollie 4,400]

as u can see, i aint changed my sig since

[diskoviolente 425]

One of my favourite games in Europe is the 3:2 against Pool at the Bridge.

I went on my knees and cried cause finally we made it into the Cl Final.

For me, it had everything a good match needs.

Of course, that 4:2 against Barca was just something else.

But winning against Liverpool in that kinda way. Fantastic. I´ll never forget that Penalty by Lamps.
