Eintracht Frankfurt vs Chelsea (EL) Thur 2nd May 20:00 GMT

[robdog]

I am with the crowd to keep The Mighty Eden rested for Watford over the weekend. Like @mwblue10 states, Willian is banged up & should be rotated

[Munkunku]

I don’t think I’ve ever been this nervous before a semi final before. We’re not the force we used to be.

I think it's a big risk resting Hazard in a semi final. I think we are at the stage now where we should be playing our best players in every game. I know the game against Watford is important, but this one is just as big for me. 

A 3 nil defeat tonight and nobody is going to be posting about Watford that's for sure. I think a lot of people are underestimating how tough this could be. We should definitely be playing our best team in every game from now on. They wil all on the beach in a month anyway, they can recover then.

I think with Hazard benched the idea is it's a 120 minute game, minimum, first 60 min away keep it tight, 60-90 go for the away goal with your best team on the pitch. 2nd leg at home best team starts.

[Phillip]

I wish we could borrow Messi for this match, maybe for 30 minutes.

And Hazard doesn't even need a rest. He has barely started any cup game all season.

Or perhaps we could play in the new kit. We could distract them because they would all be pi$$ing themselves laughing at us.

liverpool and Barcelona were the worst for me. I was shaking all the way though!

[coco]

Terracing and beer in hand, just like the old days.

[Phillip]

Damn, that’s a weak lineup we have .

[Valerie]

Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink in the studio. Oh Jimmy Jimmy....!

[my cat Jimmy looks up mildly interested]

They win the flag waving competition.

i actually started chanting that song then.

[Phillip]

The ref spoke to the captains in Spanish for the coin toss.

[EmeraldBlue]

We should be energised by this atmosphere.

[WhiteWall]

Kevin Trapp in goal for them. This is who i wanted us to sign. He must be on loan. I can't see he would have joined EF permanently from PSG

[BadBlue]

Just had a look at the new kit. Which madman designed that?? Fortunately I already have some pyjamas so that'll save me a few quid.

[mojo]

[Richard P]

Referee allowing firm challenges 

[coco]

loftus cheek is starting to show his strength on the ball, should have had a free kick then, bundles over surrounded by three black shirts.

[Phillip]

Teams look evenly matched
