Mick Mac Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 TLS - I have just backed Barca to win @ 2.35 with 30 mins to go. General - I quite like Chelsea under Hiddink - definately good to watch but I'd like to have an international flavour to the final - 2 English teams in the final is not what the Champions League is about. Although it does reflect English superiority, I don't think its a good spectacle for the neutral. Eto has just made an excellent save to foil Eto - good game now with barca building the pressure - if Anelka comes on though, I would be concerned about him, he is excellent on the break.

Sandperson Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Nailed on. Like the one on saturday. :)) Henry's looked a bit ball greedy. Couple of times he's had good passing options on and decided to try and worm his way through defence instead.

Annasfield Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 How are Barca not 4-0 up? Stonewall penalty. Ref has been shite, but it's good to see he has ignored Drogba's histrionics.

Mick Mac Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Even more annoying - I had ?144 on my betfair account and bet ?44 on barca in running - the bet was not matched so I (thought I cancelled it) and did it again and it seems I did 2 x ?44 bets. Thats the second time I have doubled up by mistake on betfair and lost, a bit annoying. Thats the trouble with trying to watch football, have a beer, bet, write on the forum and try to buy a patio power washer online, all at the same time.

red devil Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Never mind Mick it could've been worse, you could've ended up with two patio power washers...0-0 isn't that great a result, Chelski will probably still have to win at the Bridge to go through, and with Chelski having to press forward more, Barca will be more effective hitting them on the break...

Annasfield Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 What Lard said. When Roman is fed up, they'll slip back in to insignificance. Have had a couple of unpleasant experiences with some of their fans, which has tarnised them for me.

Atila Reincarnate Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Mourhino once famously bemoaned the fact that an opposing team came to stamford bridge and "parked the bus" which is exactly what chavski did last night.

Keef Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Well it worked, but a dangerous game to play, as parking the bus makes it difficult to score. I'd rather lose 2-1 and get the away goal!

Jah Lush Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I wouldn't quite say they parked the bus. They defended very well and had to as Henry, Eto'o and Messi have scored 90 goals between them this season. Cech had a blinder in goal and John Terry was like a rock throughout. I thought they got the tactics spot on but I can still see them losing at home as I'm not convinced by their home form.

Atila Reincarnate Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I can't stand them as a club and hope they win nothing because their style of play deserves exactly that.

Jah Lush Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I think you've made yourself perfectly clear in the past of all things Chelsea Atila, that we know. Although it pains me good luck tonight, but I think it'll be another draw.

Mikecg Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Ronaldo spat his dummy out when he didn't get the decision, made me laugh, it was a good game though and there's still a chance for the gunners.

Mick Mac Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I think the eventual winner will come from the Barca Chelsea match based on what we have seen so far. No offence to Arsenal but I can't see them getting past MU and I think MU will not win the final as they are running a bit low on gas after a long season. But I'd like to see a Barca MU final.
