Chelsea 1-0
Eto in the forth minute

Chelsea 1-0
Eto in the forth minute

Was it a deflection?
Did the keeper slip and fall while trying to clear the ball?
Did a defender gift him the ball?

It was a shit attempt at a save

 

[Hansern]

Chelsea are so boring and defensive.

There was a slight deflection. Keeper still got a hand to it though so probably should have kept it out.

 

[the count]

2-0 now.
Cahill

 

[Fallon]

They're through.

Arsed, Bayern or Real will take it but it may distract them from the league.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Two extra games in Europe will keep them busy - as long as they don't win anything this year, it's cool.

 

[Dirkus_Circus]

Galatasary might be worse than Olympiakos.

 

[Modo]

Good news, more games.
Wish Man C were occupied in Europe as well.

 

[SummerOnions]

Sneijder is a bit shite

 

[the count]

If Chelsea make the semi finals there is a fifty/fifty chance that our match against them scheduled on the Sunday will be moved back to the Saturday
ie if their semi final game is on the Tuesday

 

[SummerOnions]

Chelsea can go and win the thing if it means we win the league

 

[the count]

Chelsea can go and win the thing if it means we win the league

I suspect even if the draw is kind to them that they won't get past the semi finals
That should be enough to distract them sufficiently

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Sneijder is a bit shite

No speed whatsoever - so they just closed him down and made him a non-factor.

Has there ever been such a good manager like Mourinho who's such a coward tactically speaking? Unless it was Madrid vs the dross of La Liga (i.e. most of it), you rarely saw his teams steam roll ... 1-0, 2-1 bloody hell ... Gala were like a Championship team and they were sitting back in a 4-5-1 for most of the game.

 

[King Binny]

Can Olympiakos (or Moyes) set a record?

 

[keniget]

Let's hope so. I'd love for Olympiakos to beat them at OT as well.

And then we get to hear Moyes go on about how it wasn't what he was expecting, that the boys had been training well during week and that he doesn't know what happened on the day. Tee hee.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Manure will win 3/4-0

 

[Silver Sean]

I can't see anything other than a ManUre win. Hopefully a 3-1 win, but how shit are Greek teams when they travel? That's a dreadful record. how does anyone lose 4-0 to Newcastle for fuck's sake?

 

[SummerOnions]

UTd are gonna qualify easily. 9/4 is stupid odds, also

 

[Frogfish]

Hardly. 0-2 and if Olympiakos get a goal United will need 4.

 

[Hansern]

Well, they held Benfica to a 1-1 draw in Portugal, lost 2-1 to PSG away and won against Anderlect 3-0.
Maybe they're a bit better away from home this season. We can hope at least.

 

[tombrown]

Haha at Valencia"s eye

 

[SummerOnions]

Lots of yellows already. Like tony pulis in the cl

 

[Hansern]

I'm surprised Valencia hasnt been subbed with that eye

 

[cloggypop]

Nearly scored with a cross. Should stick with it.

 

[Modo]

 

[Athens]

This could be an entertaining night.

 

[tombrown]

1-0 🙁

 

[cloggypop]

The 3-1 is on
