Half an hour gone and it seems to be all Barca. The only time I have seen Chelsea out of their hald is from goal kicks. I think it's a matter of time till the flood gates open. Anyone else think this?

Actually, I think that Barca are there for the taking. They don't look good at the back.
I think Chelsea have gone for the draw. If they go at them I think they will get some joy

I hope chelski get to the final and lose on penalties again.

Why?

Because watching John Terry Snivell like a girl was one of the highlights of 2008!

Good result for Chelsea and Hiddink got the tactics spot on. I'd have preferred a few injury problems for them for Saturdays game with the super Fulham but that wasn't to be.

My only concern will be if Barca go to the Bridge with a relaxed atmosphere and pass it with more pace than tonight as that might hurt Chelsea. However if I was a betting man I'd go 2-1 Chelsea and United to win easily on aggregate in their semi

Only saw the first 20 mins of the second half and it looked a poor game tbh.

Was shocked to learn this morning that Chelsea returned 2000 tickets after failing to sell there full allocation

You not experienced Spanish police treating away fans then?

Usually, I would call the chelsea fans "plastic (insert)" for not selling their allocation, however.

Last time I went to see the mighty spurs in europe it cost me £400 or so. Bearing in mind it was a one night stay that is scary money.

So I think rather than being plastics it was just a case of saving the pennies.

Quite often on CL nights they are advertising tickets in the evening standard. Not a good sign.

Then again I wouldn't be surprised if they adopted the £70+ a ticket, no concessions sales policy other clubs do for European games. In other words the empty seats are self inflicted as a result of pure greed, rather than due to people not wishing to watch the game.

Been to Spain to watch my team a few times, yes the Spanish police are brutal at times but it can be the same most countries you go to when following your team in Europe. I am sure other english clubs fans are aware of the treatment they can dish out, but they would still sell all their allocation. I belive Chelskis allocation was 5000 so they have returned almost half of them. Think the police treatment is a poor excuse Parmo
