Messiesta

He is super world class. There is never a match you would downrate him, yes he has 2 legs, dribble against six legs only few can do. Ronaldo ball control is not special, take off speed, ball retention, pivot of Messi is lethal, just innocent talent player, non-infected and non-false ball play. the English say "he is joy to watch". I agree.

this could be poor move for Chelsea if Guus has to leave, any manager will only create depth if given correct time to direct a team, EPL will see Manure domination even next season where strong squad like Chelsea suffer silverware due to irregular hand changes.

Fairplay that Loz. Thank you again for having me on here. G'nite & Gracias. -Messiesta

please support us against Manure, we supported your final last season.

Agreed. I hope your top management does not do anything pre-mature.

Yes, Si.

For the past 15 years, Yes. I'm just as much appaulled by the rulings.

Yes, Si.

I agree about Ballack, it was not a penalty foul, this was a desperate call for foul in emergency to rescue the game.

This was a funny picture.

Guus was a gentleman, despite the situation. He knew nothing he could do to change the outcome. Pep was complimentary of the Chelsea manager and his hardwork, no one can blame anyone side at all. However,UEFA remains questionable on the referee's decisions. Nevertheless, we were on the losing end, but Chelsea also failed to comfort the lead in good time, that may have recoched on them and knowing any response would provoke their hopes. This was a controversial game and the world knows it Loz.

Woow, Congratulations, you put up a good fight. On the night, it was never meant to be your call. Football can be cruel, but its a beautiful game as always. As Manure meets us in Rome, we hope to give all our fans and all of football, a Final to remember for the coveted Trophy. Gracias. Well Done Chelsea.!! :P

I think you will push harder than us tonight, although I see a Chelsea 1 - 2 Barca Full time at Stamford Brigde. At least if not for Glory, don't forget to make your fans proud. ;)

it is sad to learn such news, but it is also familiar when one loves a team so much that this happens. unfortunate situation - Arsenal were pathetic & AW must resign this minute.

oh, either way you are likely to miss the Finals anyways. its 2 to score for every 1 converted this tie. Keep a note: Abidal should guard off Drogba while Messi edges on the tally. You've had your fair share already, but failed to capitalise. We are not mean, just here to finish off what you could not end in Camp Nou. ;)

ok,Gracias Maksimov :)

ha,ha. No - you see Jose was the "Special Arrogant One" no one else must be arrogant like him is why you win with him - i don't know what happened to Chelsea from there. the special went to eat spaghetti. :) but don worry, even when you fail at home tonight, you still support us in Rome correct.? because we are meeting Manure there. Not you. (I mean that very nicely).. :)

Chelsea have very Physical football. You are hard on the ball and want to score goals agressively ALL THE TIME. Barcelona way of play INCLUDES aggressive as a mode of play. Its like listening to Lady GaGa as opposed to the passion sounds of Josh Groban or something. :) we have same objective but different ways to getting there. ;) We like just to enjoy the ride more.

its easy for referee to blow whistle if he views tackle like that from behind is dangerous in two parts - you run with ball and brought down from behind, the ball is in front not behind, but yes this case Fletcher rubbed it but was not viewed by ref. defender makes akward tackle in penalty area.

It was dangerous play, I don think the referee had much of choice since foul was in box. don think the red card was fitting it though.

Barca fans have build confidence in their team. you will read it like cocky, but that's ok.

most english papers are reporting Chelsea will attack in this tie & Essien's article this may have a come a leg too late.

Gibbs had a bad slip, things went bad in shape for Arsenal from thereon. I always thought they could get lucky on the night.

Eduardo Garcia wants campaign for Drogba.

El Ingle's es mi segundo idioma -Gracias. Good morning ChelseaFans.! Good Morning Iniesta, Looking forward to the game later today.?
