This is the kind of Fortune you need in the CL. Missed juventus penalty in the first leg, and no penalty given in this game. 

Anyone know what Buffon was doing for the goal? Why did he just fall over as the cross went in?

We had some classic kits back in the day. The Cools Orange and Grey kit we had is one of my favourites. 

I nearly got bought that by my dad as well. Always on the list of worst kits ever, it wasn't that bad. Kits are all too similar now. 

On another note it was Bratislava with that Vialli goal, so well played sir, great knowledge!

Juventus are shot. Too many of their players are old and slow now.

Buffon has been declining for a couple of years in my opinion. Wouldn't class him as a top goalkeeper anymore.

If only we could play in that attacking way like Spurs. Hazard, Willian, Morata, Fabregas, Pedro that creativity and freedom could lead us to different places.

Juventus are looking old and boring, surprised to see Dybala in that form, he does nothing. The only one who really shines is Douglas Costa, others are falling down, even Alex Sandro isn't special.

It makes you wonder how good the English teams really are this season or whether the big clubs are just aging and look to have regressed.

Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern, Juventus. None of them are as formidable as they were. 

Juventus is just toothless up front, Dybala I don't see the fuss about him even though he's just coming back from an injury, Sandro 30 million at most

Can't agree with you, I think there is a reason that England has most teams representing them in the competition. City, Spurs, Liverpool all looked good in the CL, we also had a good competition but in current form, all we have is believe that we will succeed to do something against Barcelona, and United is pretty boring.

Liverpool don't have the best defence, but their attack is brilliant and they will lead us far as they can. Spurs have won their big games until now, Real Madrid and now Juventus. And Man City are having a great season. 

There is an improvement by the English side, after a long time, I can say that we're back to the top. There is still a long way, but we're on it.

Gotta represent with the old school shirts every now and then.

That run in Europe that year I can pretty much recall all the games, goals etc. Some amazing nights, especially at the Bridge that European season.

Yeah great times. Brilliant going forward but ropey defense and De Goey was a liability. 

Remember the Liverpool game at the bridge, 2 down at half time won 4-2, vialli, Zola and Hughes up top, superb.

Fantastic times. Wouldn't mind a bit of that Chelsea magic from then, now.

Yep and didn't have the money then. Oh for some attacking footy. 

As someone already said not seeing the fuss about Sandro tonight. Spurs have been really good though. 

Never understand the hype that surrounded Sandro. Going to be some sh*t hot Quarter Finals

Imagine if we could play like that against barça or in general ... Offensive potential at CFC not used to its full potential

A defensive mentality has been ingrained in us for too long. Not sure we know how to play another way. 

Hope to god Allegri isn't our next manager or it'll be the same again.

physical density and technical skills combined à la Makele/Essien/Lamps/Ballack in the Midfield will help to get back to play more offensive !! Except Kanté

Get in !!!!
