Unlucky lads, generally played well and ultimately went out to the great Leo, poor mistakes led to their goals. Poor goalkeeping from Courtois, you'd be better off without him, comes out every other week saying my hearts in Madrid, you were 3-0 down and your players still showed commitment and desire to score A goal, unlike our players yesterday, players seem to be playing for Conte despite what's being said in the media. Maybe you can fully concentrate on getting in the top 4, might help playing once a week like you did last season.

Fair play Scholesy. Very good post.

Wouldn't say your players had no desire tbh i just think they followed a game plan to be solid defensively and just sneak a 1-0 or 2-0 win but it just backfired. It's how Mourinho likes to play and it does well in the league but in Europe it can be a problem. But thanks anyway and i agree just silly mistakes costs us and Messi being Messi. Players and the majority of our fan base have been behind Conte but he's been part of the problem at times this season. I think the players don't have a probpem with him but he's set up in games poorly at times and his bad relationship with our board hasn't helped in the slightest. He'll most likely be off at the end of the season even if we managed to get top 4 because of what's happened since the summer.

{Ed0333's Note - Theres more chance of Liberace coming back from the dead and having an affair with Theresa May then there is of Conte staying at Chelsea beyond this season.

15 Mar 2018 01:27:44
Lol Ed0333 i agree with you. I wouldn't be surprised if it's partly why we've been so inconsistent and poor defensively all season. Seems as if the players have known it for some time. Wish him the best of luck though when it happens, just truly hope we can end it on a high with him.

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed0333's Note - he won you a premiership mate and that’s a profound achievement. I love Conte as a personality as he takes no crap, says it like it is and doesn’t give those banal Brendan Rogers type interviews. As a manager/coach I think he has failings but hey ho not everyone is Arrigo Sacchi. I’m sure you guys will give him the sending off he deserves when it happens regardless of the situation.

15 Mar 2018 09:00:01
Ed0333 who you think may be our next manager?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed0333's Note - no idea mate, I would ask eds002. I’m not an ITK with regards to football since I left the UK. I used to get a lot of lovely juicy gossip when I was a journalist back in the day but when I left blighty I didn’t keep in touch with media colleagues so the info stopped. A good friend of mine works for Kicker in Germany and I get some great stuff from that source from time to time. They did tell me that Naby would be happening when others said it was dead but they’ve also told me other stuff that didn’t materialize.

We’re not, but it’s definitely true your not, you are a team of 100% bottlers when it gets to important stages in the season you bottle it and nothing’s different look at United result that’s why you will win nothing for ages and haven’t your best player of all time Stevie G was a bottler that’s why his trophy cabinet is embarrassing even laughable but that’s why you get for being at a big big team like yours.

70 min gone. anyone seen hazard? Our world class superstar?

14 Mar 2018 22:30:55
To tell you truth after last few games it seems his heart is not with us anymore. Maybe time to cash in and get other players? Neither Player is bigger than the club and of we show more belief in willian he may well trully be a Superstar of our team?

he goes missing a lot in big games.

Courtios azpi christensen alonso fabregas, all with errors in this tie, gutting as we've outplayed them, kept ball and created, no end product or composure at both ends.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

14 Mar 2018 21:43:33
I really thought alonso was the best player tonight.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Mar 2018 22:33:13
i think alonso kante willian all fit well.

Agree0 Disagree0

15 Mar 2018 09:20:12
I think it's time a lot of our fans took off their blue-tinted spectacles.
1) Azpi is a) making far too many mistakes, both in decision making and application and b) has the annoying default of making too many defensive passes. Time to get a decent right-of-centre centre back.
2) For every defence splitting pass made by Fab, many more go astray. David Luiz is just as good at finding a killer pass and he does not let passes go wild. Get him back fit and put him in with Kante.

Agree0 Disagree0

15 Mar 2018 09:12:19
He was superb, they all were just that one lapse in concentration and we concede, usually wouldn’t get punished but they fall to Messi so it’s just way it is, courtois easily beaten, maybe getting huge fee wouldn’t be worst thing,

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Mar 2018 21:18:02
Kante is someone we can't afford to lose. he has been amazing! carry everyone he plays with. forgot fab was even playing CM.

Steal of the century, can't believe you got him for £30m in this current market, surprised a lot more teams weren't in for him after his wonder season at Leicester.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Mar 2018 23:03:38
there was plenty of teams after his signature he just chose us.

Agree1 Disagree0

15 Mar 2018 01:02:34
My bad LRDlt, think i might have confused Kante up with someone else, did seem odd to me mind. Would love Kante in our midfield, like ED001 has said on our page, when Pogba plays alongside a hard-runner like Vidal it wakes him up, Kante would have been the man lol!

Not enough world class players in our team I am afraid.

It is story of our season, when we’ve played this well we just haven’t had that final but of product, the final pass or finish., separates us from top teams.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Mar 2018 21:00:25
disagree . we have gave it ago . and could of got a few goals. it's just there one man defence in UMTITI has blocked everything.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Mar 2018 21:10:02
No shame is losing to Barcelona. We’ve been by far the better side. Over 2 legs Barcelona have created nothing they’ve been invidivdual mistakes. Courtois has had an appalling game though.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Mar 2018 21:16:19
agree JD 4-1 is not a true reflection.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Mar 2018 21:15:02
We have Moses who wouldn’t get in any other top 6 side in prem how he gets in ours I will never know we have a keeper who thinks he’s better that what he is we’re carrying players like Fabregas Moses Giroud Morata. We are terrible at defending Christensen and Rudiger are ok but not world class and a manger who’s clueless subs again to late hazard a no show again willian best player along with Kante rest embarrassing.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Mar 2018 21:18:21
We could of been back in it but no end product, hazard missing as usual in big game, and we’ve been a lot better, Barcelona 4 chances 4 goals in both games, we need 10 to get 1 goal. there’s ya difference,

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Mar 2018 21:24:28
In my opinion Moses has had one of his worst and at best is a back up option. The problem is Zappacosta is even worse! Hopefully bakayoko can improve and fast! Fabregas has been terrible.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Mar 2018 21:33:06
zappacosta is better than Moses .

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Mar 2018 21:41:47
Disagree we wasn't the best team over the both legs goals win games and the rubbish we got playing for us now have no chance they will all swan off on the plane back to there mansions no heart in our team any more we won't get top 4 cause now the players will just think nah I'll save myself for the world cup.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Mar 2018 22:06:38
Gonna have to disagree with you there wheely. Neither are brilliant but Moses has the ability to beat a man, all be it rarely.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Mar 2018 22:10:49
Hey Byrrab I think Psg proved that having world class players doesn't guarantee success. It's not about individuality more about chemistry and luck.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Mar 2018 20:45:58
He, who is down fear no fall, we need two goals without conceding any again, come on boys it is still possible if we intensify our efforts.

its not over mate, we only need to score 2 goals. With the way we play we still can do it. I would rather loose playing like that than the way Man Utd played yesterday.

We made 3 big mistakes and we conceded 3 goals. This Barcelona team is for the taking.

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Mar 2018 12:58:53
Just go for it! Rather lose 3-1 than 1-0 at least we have a go at them.

Big game tonight, we're not expected to get through. But at the end of the day this situation is not an impossible task.

Don't get me wrong I can't see us not conceding, but a score draw is not out of the question. Barcelona are not the greatest defensively, we have to play with a big man upfront tonight, with Willian and Hazard either side.

We can hurt Barcelona on the break, but we have to play almost the perfect game. Conceding a goal is not the end of the world either, we just need to get a score draw. Ideally 2-2 to take us through on away goals. But I'd take a 1-1 and penalties and our chances.

We can do this tonight c'mon Chelsea!

Believable2 Unbelievable0

14 Mar 2018 12:49:23
I am with you mate, If we are really up for this game and won't hide like in Man city's game Barcelona is for the taking.

We really need to try and attack ourselves and not hold all 11 players in defence.
