Not having an away goal could really damage us...I will be watching in hope more than expectation...Whatever happens we've had a great run...I don't even feel nervous as I'm not expecting too much...

Thats how I feel, Shelly!

 
They will be missing their captain, Gabi, so that alone will be a big miss, also, they played at the weekend and had a full strength side out; on top of this, they have to travel to London as well, so with all that in mind, let's hope they don't perform and we win. I really couldn't give a toss if the scoreline ends up 1-0 to us, as long as we go through. This is really going to be a test of both team's player's metal, and it's going to take an impeccable tactical plan from Jose.

If we do get to the final I just hope Terry doesn't miss it. Not only would it be a huge blow but Terry has had the worst of luck in the latter stages of several major European tournaments.

I think even the most ardent Terry hater would have to admit that if he missed that game it'd be horrible. 08, then 12 and 13. Has anyone had worse luck?

 
Sky Sports saying Cech's fit to play this one and has been in training with Terry, Hazard and Eto'o :)

 
How does a player go from "will miss rest of the season" to "fit to play" in less than a week?

 
How does one go from dislocated shoulder to being healthy to play within a week? I call shenanigans

 
Well that's changed the outlook on the tie with JT and Cech being back

 
The thing is Schwarzer has been so brilliant in the last couple of games that if he was playing I wouldn't mind as much, now!

Does someone have a direct quote from Cech?

No quotes, but there was this:

Chelsea FC @chelseafc  Â·  23m

Training underway at Cobham. Petr Cech, John Terry, Eden Hazard and Samuel Eto'o involved. Pictures to come. #CFC

Apparently there's also this:

Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech has told Sky Sports he is fit to play against Atletico Madrid at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday.

No quote from Cech in that article, though.

Also, I cant see it being mind games as it would be negative to us, not them.

Massive boost if all the injured players can play .

However they should not start if they are not 100%.

 
Bizarre. How on earth is Cech fit?

I'd rather not risk him and just stick with Schwarzer again.

 
Every single one of them is fit? Hmm... Cech being the most surprising really. Perhaps it was just some kind of WUM. No one recovers from a shoulder dislocation that fast
