Champions League Thread 2011/12

[Syn]

Old man Drogba can't seem to stand 2 minutes without a rest. Get the fuck up and stop wasting everyone's time you shit.

[Cripps_orig]

Puyol sending a message to give to laporta who will then radio the ref about something

FFS Drogba

[Cripps_orig]

You don't think FIFA (Barca) control the media as well as the referees? :rolleyes:

Barca - it's almost like watching Arsenal. Arsenal :bow:Nah not the media but its clear the commentator does not watch Messi often

[McNamara That Ghost...]

He's down again.

[Syn]

:haha:

Is he taking the piss?

Just get the fuck off the pitch.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Get the bolt gun...

[Cripps_orig]

Drogba needs to forget the pain and go in to beast mode for tonight then hopefully the knocks he got keep him out for saturday and hes back for next week

[Dennis Bendtner]

OI OI CASHLEY with the tiki taka

[Cripps_orig]

Brilliant from Cole

How he is missed

[Cripps_orig]

Wtf is Drogba doing?

Offside again

[Cripps_orig]

David Simon on Twitter: "33 minutes & no goal...when will this drought ever end for Messi?"

He's no Adam Le Fondre, I'll give you that.

Whos Adam Le Fondre? :unsure:

[Dennis Bendtner]

This is somewhat like the cold night at the Britannia dream. They're even bigging up Ivanovic's long throws. Can't even get it into the box though.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Cashley clears near the line! Cesc should've belted it in.

Messi. :bow:

[Dennis Bendtner]

Cesc, you are weak mate.

[Syn]

One ex-Arsenal **** prevents another from scoring.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Messi. :haha:

WTF was that?

[Cripps_orig]

Cole :bow:

I remember when he used to clear off the line for us umpteen times.

Mikel is awful though

[Cripps_orig]

Messi clears one for Chelsea

:lol:

hes been shite once again

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Oh piss off Drogba. Again?!

[Dennis Bendtner]

Drogba is a complete joke.

[Cripps_orig]

Blatant kick there on Drogbas leg there.

Looked painful

Can understand him going down there

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Good thing Messi already got his girlfriend pregnant.

[Cripps_orig]

Oh get the fuck up Messi you cheating ****,

No one was near you

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chelsea 1-0 Barcelona, Drogba!

[Cripps_orig]

DROGBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAA

FUCK YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[Rors]

Sod off like.

[Dennis Bendtner]

The sunbathing twat has scored.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Name on the trophy :ninja:

[Syn]

Fuck. Should've been Fat Frank on the end of that.

Messi :lol:

Stick to the pub league mate.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

1-0 HT.

[Cripps_orig]

1-0 HT

Drogba :bow:

Messi played a part in the goal as well. Best Chelsea player this half imo

Not won yet though. Chelsea need to concentrate. Keep the ref quiet and they should win this

[Marc Overmars]

Cesc. :doh:

Looks like he is fucking things up for them.

[Coney]

Drogba is a complete joke.

Yeah - he'll never score.

[Cripps_orig]

Cesc. :doh:

Looks like he is fucking things up for them.I have no love for the **** as people well know but Messi is the man to blame. Hes been terrible

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

drogba :bow:

one of the best strikers to ever to grace english football :bow:

[Syn]

I have no love for the **** as people well know but Messi is the man to blame. Hes been terrible

Messi's been alright without being spectacular. Cesc has had Barca's two best opportunities (including one set up by Messi) and cleared them both.

Expect Cesc to be taken off now.

There's only room for one Frank on the pitch. Mainly because he's so fucking fat.

[Joker]

Hope Chelsea don't pub their way to a victory. C'mon on Barca.

[Syn]

How good was that from Lampard? First tackling Messi and then fantastic vision and accuracy on the pass to release Ramires or whoever.

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

come on chelsea get this bloody win

[Marc Overmars]

So the cheeky fiver is gone.

Now for the massacre. :pray:

Alexis to score next.

[Dennis Bendtner]

Get Cuenca or Pedro or Tello or whoever on for Cesc. Genuine youth products. This guy is far too English to take on English teams.

[Joker]

Can't bring myself to support Chelsea, I doubt their supporters were backing us last season. Plus it's always better to see quality footballer prevail over pubbery. And people go on about Barca cheating but the biggest cheat on the pitch is Drogba.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1067343/ow.gif

:haha:

[Dennis Bendtner]

Chucking it down with rain. :popcorn:

This is Messi's biggest test yet.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Good effort from Adriano, Cech parries it out for a throw-in.

[Syn]

Chucking it down with rain. :popcorn:

This is Messi's biggest test yet.

Shame it's on a fantastic pitch like Stamford Bridge instead of The Brit. And shame he's up against cultured defenders like Cahill and Terry and not mindless thugs like Shawcross.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pub team touch from Cesc.

[Dennis Bendtner]

Fabregas is rubbish. Barca were robbed.

[Gubby Allen]

Someone remind me again what happens if Chelsea win the C.L and finish 5th or 6th?

[Cripps_orig]

Mikel is terrible ffs

Meireles has been excellent

[Cripps_orig]

Someone remind me again what happens if Chelsea win the C.L and finish 5th or 6th?They are in the CL as holders and the 4th placed team get dumped in to the europa

[McNamara That Ghost...]

WTF happened there?

[Cripps_orig]

Sanchez :haha:

[Gubby Allen]

You have to when you play them or you'd finish with 7 players. Nobody can out Busqets, Busqets.

I'm sure if you got her on her own and pressed her on it, deep down, even his mum would admit he's a bit of a **** and she can't watch him for more than 10 minutes without deciding to root for the opposition.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ah Sanchez pubbed it wide.

It's getting tougher and tougher for Chelsea to hold them off.

[Syn]

Lovely dink ball by Frankcesc tbf.

[Gubby Allen]

:bow:
They are in the CL as holders and the 4th placed team get dumped in to the europa

Excellent. So we'll finish third then.

C.L rules :bow:

[Rors]

Okay Chelsea you've had your fun, just capitulate now...

[Cripps_orig]

Okay Chelsea you've had your fun, just capitulate now...Ban worthy post this surely?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nearly from Messi.

[Xhaka Can’t]

Barca really lack composure when it comes down to the final shot.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Freekick to Barca. dangerous area.

[Rors]

Ban worthy post this surely?
No!No!No!No!...

[Cripps_orig]

Harsh handball given there

It hit Mikels thigh and went on his hand

Terrible decision

[Syn]

Okay Chelsea you've had your fun, just capitulate now...

Chelsea have caused Arsenal so much more harm than Barcelona in recent years. Drogba has pretty much shat on every Arsenal CB in the last 7 years, Cashley is just a ****, Ambrovich's gazillions are the only reason Arsenal didn't win back-to-back titles and dominate for a while longer. And - on the possibly likely scenario that Arsenal finish 4th - Chelsea winning the CL could knock Arsenal into the Europa League.

And yet I still find myself wanting Chelsea to get through. I need help tbf.

[Xhaka Can’t]

Freekick to Barca. dangerous area.

Nah, West London is pretty safe.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

In to the wall from Messi.

[Cripps_orig]

Thankfully Messi defended that FK well

That looked nasty on Drogba

[Dennis Bendtner]

Drogba down :faint:

Drogba has died yet again.

I'm expecting the Flair Flop from him any minute...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Freekick to Barca. Ramires booked.

Good time to bet on Barca scoring.

[Cripps_orig]

Xavi :haha:

A fantastic tactical performance by Cesc.

Worst Barca youth player since Cesc?

Busquets :haha:

Miss a sitter

[McNamara That Ghost...]

1-0 FT. :sick:

[Cripps_orig]

Townsend just says Busquets is the one player you want the chance to go to :blink:

1-0 FT

FUCK YES

Now go to the land of the ****s and finish it.

Chelsea :bow:

[Rors]

Busquets really SHOULD cover his face now...

(And what has 'One Step Beyond' got to do with it? :lol: )

[Cripps_orig]

Messi fails yet again in this country

Best player in the world indeed

:haha:

[Özim]

Typical Barca to be honest, bottle it totally when they play in England by missing chance after chance, did it against us twice.

[Marc Overmars]

Barca. :haha:

Couldn't do it on a cold, rainy night in Stoke London.

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

truly awful from barca, and they're supposed to be the best team on the planet.

guardiola completely outdone by matteo :bow:

what the hecks happened to cesc? gone completely downhill. and why didn't pep have the balls to take him off sooner? how much money was he given in the summer yet he still failed to bring in adequate cover for a striker, instead he bought a player they didn't need.

if madrid don't win this thing then it will be a complete shambles. best team on this planet by a country mile and deserve to win both la liga and the champions league.

we beat chelsea 5-3 at the bridge and barca cant even score a goal :lol:

wenger> pep :bow:

arsenal> barca :bow:

[Cripps_orig]

Cos its Cheeeeeellllseaaaaa, Chelsea FC, they are by far the greatest team west london has ever seen. What a win.

Football 1-0 Diving corrupt cheats. Hope Arsenal dont injure any of their players this saturday

[Dennis Bendtner]

Meh.

Annihilation next week. They aren't going to pub it out on a narrow pitch and have the woodwork gods on their side.

But Cesc was really poor, comfortably stood out as the poorest Barcelona player.

[Cripps_orig]

Cahill was brilliant surprisingly.

Swap for Kos :pray:

[Cripps_orig]

Chelsea - 192 passes

Bar****s - 784 passes i think

Like watching paint dry

:haha:

[Syn]

Of course Barcelona will go through. Everyone knows that.

If Chelsea are still leading the tie with half an hour to go, you can bet your life that Barca will get a dodgy penalty or a Chelsea player will get sent off for no reason.

We know the score.

All eyes on who Laporta chooses as the ref next week. Thought Chelsea were brilliant in keeping the ref quiet today.

Need to do a bigger and better job.

Keep the faith. Chelsea are doing this.

[Marc Overmars]

Cesc was genuinely the worst player in their team tonight.

[GP]

Poor finishing was the difference.

Hopefully it's a different story in Spain.

[Rors]

"If Di Matteo wins the Champions League with Obi Mikel and Meireles in the midfield, he deserves the Noble Prize for Literature"

Dunphy :bow:

[Syn]

Cesc was genuinely the worst player in their team tonight.

Tactically though, he was spot on.

Greasy little fuck.

[Joker]

Chelsea had a lot of luck on their side tonight, I expect them to get taken apart at the Nou Camp.

[Cripps_orig]

Got to say, this might rival the 2005 CL final of the best feeling ive had at a non Arsenal football moment.

Might become the best next week

COYB

Barca :haha:

Beaten at their own game

Drogba :bow:

Barca got fucked hardcore.

And they lost the match as well

[Gubby Allen]

The biggest diver was Drogba.

All the more reason to like him for 24 hours. Long time since someone gave Busquet & Alves a lesson is being being a diving cheat.

If he carries it on in the league here, or in the final if they get there, then I'll go back to hating him the greasy play-acting ****.

But today he got it spot on.

[BOBN]

fabregas proving to the worlkd hes one of the most overrated players in europe.

shows how easily pleased our fans are that we thought we was a top top player.

It's not going to happen.

Though if by some miracle, the ref doesn't prevent Chelsea from going through and (eventually) winning it...I happen to think us finishing 3rd, Tottenham finishing 4th and Chelsea winning the CL is one of the funniest things that could happen in football.

[Marc Overmars]

There's nothing funny about

A. Big Man lifting this trophy.

and

B. Chelsea becoming the first London club to win it.

They'll knock Bar****s out and then lose in the final and thats all that matters

Yup, because those are exactly the things I'd be laughing at.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Kinda apt, given the opposition, that Drogba scored in the time added on for his rolling around.

I couldn't stomach Chelsea winning it, though it may be sweeter if they were utterly humiliated in the final. Have their little day out and it all comes crashing down...

would be a nice silver lining on a big grey cloud. really big.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

As it is, I'm not the Spuds will hold on to fourth.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

That was the self proclaimed "worlds best player" imo

Won't be a massacre next week but Barca won't be worried about tonight. Chelsea needed to score more then one to have a chance of going through, because over there on a bigger pitch Barca will beat them tbh.

But credit to chavs for today did what they had to do.

[Marc Overmars]

Can see Chelsea pub teaming a goal there

I think it will be like the Inter 2nd leg 2 years ago. Barca will just be camped in their half, it's just a question of whether they can find the goals. On tonights evidence they need to sort their lives out.

Even if they pub one in, the pressure will be relentless.

[Master Splinter]

Barcelona :haha:.

Wasteful would be the word. Lampregas fucking up as expected. Alves was absolutely terrible. When he went for glory with about five team-mates on the edge of the box, Pep probably wanted to kill him. Messi was very poor. Not by his own standards, but by any normal standard. They still should have scored a few though.

Cashley and Ramires were brilliant for Chelsea. When he wasn't rolling around and trying to reclaim his mantle as the biggest cheat in football, he put in a Heskey-beating defensive display.

You'd expect Barcelona to be slicker and far more efficient in the final third at home. But, if they somehow conspire to play with the intensity lowered again as they did tonight, then Chelsea's athlete-ball players like Ramires and Dids could be deadly on the break.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Can see Chelsea pub teaming a goal there

Maybe, but the Barca pressure will be worse then it was here. makes for a good 2nd leg though.

Fabregas was woeful no wonder barca did not want to pay more then they did.

And after his comments you thought he'd have backed them up.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Chelsea had a lot of luck on their side tonight, I expect them to get taken apart at the Nou Camp.

Woah Woah Woah, now i hate the chavs like most on here, but you got to give them credit, they defended well and did what they had to do, Few of their lads dived which was bad to see. Barca were poor though and need to hope they don't get injurys on sat tbh.

Typical Barca to be honest, bottle it totally when they play in England by missing chance after chance, did it against us twice.

Barca are shite whereever they travel tbf its what they will do at home that matters. Barca will take a 1-0 because they know in spain they will have all the luck and Uefa on their side.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Drogba v Mascherano :lol:

I can see a slaughter coming

:bow:

Ach you the man

[KSE Comedy Club]

Anyone seriously think barca won't win next week and go through? Really!?!

Even if they are poor, which they won't be, the refs will do what they are paid to do and help them through.

At least now we know why RVP went to see them the other night, "just let them win 1-0 so they have selection problems for the game against us cesc, then we can beat them. Then you guys can stuff them 4-0 at the nou"

[Cripps_orig]

However as you and others have so correctly suggested, outside inteference will play a part

Bet you was not saying this when he scored that pen for us to make it 2-2 against Barca.

He was a top player for us lets be real, but was he really good enough to go to Barca well where seeing the Answer now. Maybe next season he may improve maybe not.

But he has not been as good as made out to be. Once Villa comes back he won;t play as much.

A point on Cesc, I thnk it was the Valencia game (they won 5-1) he was taken off by Guardiola and Guardiola said to him explicitly criticising how many chances he failed to score from and shove him by his neck towards the bench, Cesc kinda laughed it off then, which probably says it all. I expect Guardiola would have killed him by this morning.

Apparently he will start as Barca are going for it

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Barca. :rose:

Build-up will start on Revista at 6pm, SS2. :popcorn:

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Apparently he will start as Barca are going for it

Mind games lol.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Salgado is brilliant. He has been talking virtually non-stop about Barca's failures for about ten minutes. :lol:

[Rors]

Cuenca starts. That could be fun...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

:lol:

Well he can't miss worse chances than Tello on Saturday I suppose.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sky's programme is on in a few minutes.

[Cripps_orig]

Cesc does start :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Souness, Hoddle and Jamie are pitchside.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

The pitchside camera couldn't pick Neville out.

Sky. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hoddle thinks Barca could win the Champions League for the third time running this season.

:unsure:

[GP]

Hoddle thinks Barca could win the Champions League for the third time running this season.

:unsure:

That would be some achievement.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

That would be some achievement.

Truly would make them the best team ever I'd say.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

So in what minute will Barca get their dodgy match-winning penalty?

I'm hoping the 97th, just for the look on the Old Boys' faces...

[Dennis Bendtner]

Unusual leaving Alves out, I think. Unless there is a fitness doubt. Could be 3-4-3.

Anyway Chelsea are getting creamed and that is all important. Come on the Laporta.

[Cripps_orig]

So in what minute will Barca get their dodgy match-winning penalty?

I'm hoping the 97th, just for the look on the Old Boys' faces...Im going for 69th cos Chelsea are going to get screwed out of this

[McNamara That Ghost...]

First minute.

If the Old Boys do have to get through, I hope Big Man gets sent off tonight.

They can combine it with the headlines for Jeremy Hunt.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Interesting Chelsea shirt.

:unsure:

[Rors]

Alan Parry?For a game of this 'magnitude'?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Champions League music.

:bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Alan Parry?For a game of this 'magnitude'?

Listen out for 'whoops', 'a misplaced pass by (x), unusual for (x)' and 'would you believe (pie in the sky stat)'.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

6 Chelsea players a yellow away from possibly missing the final.

.....:lol:

[Rors]

That Mars advert. :haha:

The true reason for RVP's downturn in goalscoring.

Still puts in a better acting performance than Parker. Ye gads, "wooden" doesn't come close. To think he has experience too...:

Good film

[Cripps_orig]

Good filmActually finished just a few seconds before kick off

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Clearly a stunt double with tricks like that.

[Cripps_orig]

Parker :bow:

Wenger :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Messi hits the sidenetting. :doh:

[Cripps_orig]

Messi misses a sitter :lol:

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Big man :lol:

[Rors]

What a move.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Parker :bow:

Wenger :doh:

Because of a 93 advert :lol:

Fergie or mancin did not want Parker either.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Cuenca falls over. :lol:

[Ernesto]

Interesting Chelsea shirt.

:unsure:

A bit Spursy, no?

[Rors]

Cuenca :lol: that's about right...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Cahill is dead.

[Cripps_orig]

That looked nasty

Surely a booking for the Barca player that was nowhere near him?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bosingwa will be coming on for Cahill. :lol:

[Olivier's xmas twist]

That looked nasty

Surely a booking for the Barca player that was nowhere near him?

:lol: i see what you did there.

[Ernesto]

That physio woman of Chelsea looks a bit of all right.

Wonder if the randy Champions League cameraman does a close-up of her more often during the course of the game....?

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Cahill still on ?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Big Man telling Cahill to man up. :lol:

[Rors]

Patient attack breaks down as soon as Cuenca gets seriously involved......

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bosingwa is finally coming on.

[Cripps_orig]

FFS

Typical Barca fucking the pitch up

[Syn]

Cahill still on ?

Commentator said Terry signalled to the bench to 'give it a couple of mins...'.

Another Chelsea player-manager :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Shite cross from Mata.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Valdes the destroyer.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

This doesn't look good for Pique.

[Cripps_orig]

Pique acting :rolleyes:

[Syn]

Every time you see the eyes go like that, you start worrying these days. Seems to be responding at least.

[Cripps_orig]

FK given for no reason

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Great save from Cech to deny Messi!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Cesc volleys in to the sidenetting.

[Cripps_orig]

Messi misses another sitter :lol:

Cesc clears one for Chelsea

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mascherano. :lol:

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Pique acting :rolleyes:

Yep really acting.

[Syn]

Couple of great touches by Fabregas. Looking good tonight, the greasy little fuck.
