The Battle of the Bridge? Do Barcelona get to keep it if they win?

No, that would obviously be the battle for the bridge.

Messi with a dubious penalty after Busquets dives from a perfect Torres challenge. Perfect.

There is no Bridge near the ground these days, or am I wrong?

Barcelona over the two legs without much bother. I'll say 2-2 tomorrow and 5-1 to Barcelona in the second leg.

After cheering for Madrid tonight, I'll be cheering for Barca tomorrow.

5-1 , go away out of that , your dreaming !

I expect a score draw tomorrow night , I hope for a 2-0 for Chelsea

I expect barca to beat us at the Camp Nou by a goal or 2 as we try to chase away goals after the score draw in the first leg .

Im looking forward to it and I know this will prob come back to haunt me but I feel a bit better that Cahill will be manning the back line with JT so I wont have to have my heart in my mouth every time Luiz either tried to play it from the back or put a challenge in , dont get me wrong I think he has come on loads the last few months but still think he is a bit raw and needs to calm it down a Tad .

All this said I think if Raul Meireles plays we will loose, we simply can not afford to be giving the ball away stupidly and Barca will punish us badly if we do.

So who will play? Lampard and Mikel?

It's good to see that Barca fans think getting non-existent penalties and scoring from them is in the good name of the game.

I think he's a liability for them.

I would be happier alrite with the lineup from Sunday ,

Essien has lost his pace completely and is stuffed IMO,

Mikel and Lamps would do nicely , the later having upped his game 10 fold since the departure of AVB , he does not have the pace but has a great range of passing and is still decent enough from the set pieces ,

I would like to see Kalou dropped and either Danny or Nando on in his place , Kalou again being very wasteful with the ball which you can not afford to be against Barca.

I would love if Oriel Romeu was available for him , would happily have him there instead of either Lamps or Mikel

As a neutral I hope Chelsea win. Just suppose I like seeing the English teams doing well in Europe. Also, I dislike Barca so that has a baring!

Hard to call tomorrow night. Chelsea couldn't be coming into this game on the back of a better result really. Barca are vulnerable in defence and I see Chesea definitely scoring. Problem is, its hard to see Barca not scoring too. I'll go 2-1 Chelsea

Big loss for Barca perhaps yeah. The guy cannot defend.

Nothing to do with you particular dislike for the Mighty blue's especially after we stuffed Spurs on Sunday .

Always bewilders me that people would choose to back a team outside of the league they follow ,

I like to see teams from the league I support doing well, which in the past is usually Utd after Chelsea go out but I always hope they will do good , find its keeps more of an interest in the competition for me .

KingdomYid

The big question is, who will wave their plastic flag the most?

Maybe the Chelsea fans will actually sing this time.

Yes I dislike them and I am entitled to, I also like Barcelona quite a lot and as I said want a Spanish final.

Gutted - Luiz vs Messi would have been exciting and funny
We have been robbed.
Cahill vs Messi just isnt the same!

Just imagine being Cahill though, in December he was playing for Bolton, tomorrow he will be facing Barca
Hows that for living a dream!

Ah they did sing and plenty of signing right to the very end of the game , you must of missed the end of the game with the rest of the Spurs fans ,

Think they were signing "has the fire alarm gone off" as all the Spurs fans hastily rushed from there seats :pac::pac::pac:

Fair play to the club giving out the flags , looks very well at the game and on screen.

Ah that bitterness will always get you in the end ,

Anyway going on tonights evidence , a german team looks a decent shout for a final spot .

I really hope the game goes off without any controversial shouts , have had my fill of them this season , for and against

I was at the game and stayed until the end, pity Chelsea could not sell all their tickets. Anyway sorry is off topic and I will let you get back to discussing tomorrow night's game.

G.K.

Here'd be my Chelsea lineup if I had been manager: Cech, Cole, Terry, Ivanovic, Bosingwa, Romeu, Mikel, Mata, Ramires, Kalou, Mata, Torres

i like watching teams who play good football,regardless of whether they are in my favourite teams league or not.i find drogba terry and cole a very unsavoury triumverate. they are unscrupulous, lack virtue and have very few redeeming features at all.drogba in particular is an embarrassment as a footballer given his physical dimensions to play acting ratio. cole and terry are just not nice in the way they condct themselves.

hopefully tomorrow is a victory for football and humanity

add in the moments silence antics and my decision seems topical and justified.
