Happy with that. We can do Bayern on our day. I hope paulo plays right back, his experience will help nulify ribery and im confident ash can do a decent job on robben. Without them 2 they will struggle to get service to gomez. Feeling confident. Come on Chels lets finish the job. OsgoodIsKing

I cant stand this rule with the yellow cards!
Its wiped clean if you get through the group stages. Why would they not wipe it for the final? Its a once in a lifetime affair for most footballers. Its wrong that they get robbed of that moment that they have worked for all there lives.
Just thought I would get it of my chest!
Up the blues!

I agree mate. Its a tough one but its not as simple as just wiping them for the final. If that was the case then in the semi finals you would have players getting purposely booked by fouling the opposition and wasting time, knowing it won't matter. Its a hard one but UEFA need to look at it. OsgoodIsKing

Who are they??

David Alaba (left back), Olga Badstuber (centre back) and Luiz Gustavo (holding midfielder)

Let the drog loose on bayern and he will tear them a new one!!

Well we've got a very determined bayern in the final.. At home no less. They will be missing three starters and we will be missing four.. I believe we can beat them whole heartedly. It's no secret they hate having to defend.. I think we will have to play differently then we did with barca and play a balanced game of attack and defend. This is our year! We can do this! WE ARE CHELSEA!

When Chelsea appointed Villas Boas in the summer I was really happy with the move, I saw him as a young manager with modern ideas who could offer something different and, most importantly, stay at the club for a number of years. Villas Boas’s tenure at the club proved to be anything but successful and subsequently short.

When I think about who I want to take over this summer the checklist is still very similar, and one man is coming to the front of the queue…Roberto Di Matteo! I’ve had my concerns that our recent run under him is more down to Villas Boas leaving rather than anything Di Matteo did; it was clear some of the players had issues with Villas Boas and I felt that maybe when he left they felt a weight lifted. It is now clear that Di Matteo, well assisted by Eddie Newton, is responsible for the lift in unity at the club and the results that have come with them. Whether we win or lose both cups, finish fourth or not, he should be given the job full time on a long term contract.

He knows the club, he knows the players, the players clearly love him and are willing to leave it all on the pitch for him…he is the clear choice!!

What so when we clear out the new players will respect him for loving the club? he has been very lucky stoke, wigan, barca, & is he really the man to rebuild? is he really tacticalky assure with attacking football ? i dunno and aint sure well see if we beat newcastle qpr liverpool and blacburn & get 4th spot, we should win the fa cup and i believe were a better team than munich. thrs a lot of reasons i dont think he should be.

Agree2 Disagree1

He's got the old guys to care, but can he start a new dawn? dont think so. we should have had RDM this year and AVB next year.

Agree2 Disagree0

I really doubt he is the right man for the job...

You can't win every game by playing so defensively...and we don't have every ball hit the bar everytime...think we need change...we even create a good ball or hold a ball long time...everyone is busy releasing the ball as soon as possible.

Agree1 Disagree0

I dint think we need a big overhaul. A few will move on and will need to be replaced.
I woul like to see. Hamsik, hulk and micha richards. Keep drogba and torres and I think we could win prem. Maybe 1 more wide man. I would like to se kevin de bryun, paizon and josh get some games.

LFC fan here. Been listening to rival fans all day slagging Chelsea off for the way that they played last night and just have to say bo****ks to the lot of them. It's called playing adaptive football which = winning football which in simple terms means changing tactics to beat your opponents; something that Barca seem incapable of doing. It's no good playing like Barca did and getting nowhere. How many shots did cech have to save last night? Not many. I remember Liverpool under Benitez and we sometimes played decent stuff for maybe only ten minutes in some games and still won, winning is winning so to all the moaning gits out there get a grip and give credit where its due.

Should Bayern get through, they could have some serious suspension issues, with Philipp Lahm, Holger Badstuber, David Alaba, Jérôme Boateng, Toni Kroos, Luiz Gustavo and Thomas Müller all a booking away from missing out on the big one. With John Terry and co all out of the Chelsea squad already, we could need some extra seating behind the dugout at the Allianz...

First of all id like to applaud rival fans for their support last night , its refreshing to see fair play is alive in the game!I'm not sure about some of the support that's going JT's way, I'm a huge fan of his but as we've seen before with the Bridge situation and then with Anton and the contract fiasco and now a serious lack of judgement?i personally think the armband should be given to cech next season and start facing Terry out of the team slowly the way he was brought through the ranks and desaily got fazed out the same should happen! I'm not saying kick him to the curb because as im sure we all agree he's been a wonderfull professional for us, but i think with age and lets face it physically he isn't as good and he was never the most technically player frustration gets the better of him these days affecting his judgement! I can shed some light on what was in his head though , i personally think he gave up , he said f*** it if i cant beat them ill try kick them and it annoyed me he played it down and didn't just own up to it. If i was him id bow out gracefully because things like this will be more frequent. I know ill probably get slated for this comment but i just think we should keep the club in mind all times. Any comment is welcome as usual so fire ahead. Danny

Hey chelsea fans, Everton fan here, but i live down in the south, so have many Chelsea fans as mates. What a gutsy performance, congradulations. I had a fiver on 2-2 last night, just over 100 quid return, not bad. I had the upmost confidence in you winning the match and going through, unlike alot of people. I even did 1-0 last week, so its been a good week of predictions haha. Anyway i just wanted to say did anyone see the post match interviews done by Geoff Shreeves with Ashley cole, Cezh and Ivanovic, what a disgrace that man is to England, he ripped in to Ivanovic telling him that he was going to miss the final and that he was suspended. Was that really the place to be saying those sorts of things, i thought it was really bad manners and left a really bad taste in my mouth, i felt really sorry for Ivanovic. He also did the same to JT, but i am alot less sympathetic to JT (let the club down last night big time, disgraceful). Any views on Geoff Shreeves anyway, i reckon we start up a campaign to get him kicked out or at least an apology for the badly times questions and statements. Anway rant over, let me know what you think. Good luck for rest of the season, and please beat liverpool in the FA cup final, im headed to London to watch it with my chelsea mates, COYB.

Bad head, pulled a sicky, well worth it. Lock in at my old mans pub along with 10 or so other Chelsea fans up there with the best nights ever. Other fans reading this write us off at your peril! Only a handfull of lads on this page that believed we could do it. Just hope the suspensions evens itself out a bit in tonights game, anyone know the list of Munich/Real players a caution away? If you havent yet watch the Torres goal with Nevilles reaction in the background i think i made the same noise. Flights start from 149, only 17500 tickets and i aint got enough points on my away games to get one anyway but its got be worth the trip across and hope for a tout. Anyone else planning on going across?

What a game. Chelsea did the Prem proud - balls, determination and grit, well done lads, I like seeing Barca brought down a peg or two!

And how about Gary Neville's lack of bias - the bloke's voice was all over the shop shouting when Torres scored!

Good luck in the final.

Congratulations on the CL final qualification.

Two very different approaches to getting the required outcome, but Chelsea won the game over two legs so no matter what is said RDM got it right and Pep got it wrong. As has been proved, posession counts for nothing if you can't breakdown the opposition, and in fairness your boys defended with their lives.

I'll be honest and admit i'm hoping you don't win the tournament, but never-the-less, good luck in the final because after last night you deserve it.

As a life long Liverpool fan I was gutted when Torres went to Chelsea. A lot of my fellow LFC fans revelled in his poor form after that. And yet despite all that I found myself being over the moon for him last night. He's too good a player to not have a CL winners medal at the end of his career. So, well done Chelsea and well done Nando. Really hope you come back from Munich a winner YNWA

Arsenal fan here:

Congrats on getting to the final. Provided a Masterclass on how to defend!

Also ang kids who play CF watching that just saw an absolute masterclass from drogba (other than the odd bit off play acting, which tbh barca always do so f*ck um) on how to play the position. Holding up the ball, brining other into play and then defending when called upon. First class! Oh I wonder how badly you wish he was 5 years younger! lol

finally, I think this yellow card rule is a joke. both teams deserve to have the BEST team available for the final, all the yellow cards should be wiped. Can understand the red, but the yellow card rule should definitely be f*ckd off IMO.

Good luck in Munich!

Feel so sorry for the lads who gonna miss out on the final except terry!

I will ever be greatfull to ramires, already knew he was out of the final and to score that goal like he did when most players in his position would of been sulking with their head down. Always be a legend at the club!

I salute Chelsea! Epic performance.

Your team just reminded the world that playing as a team, defending with total conviction, and never losing concentration matter more than ball skills.

Oh, and I despise Barca. Overrated and overhyped. Their arrogance, their gamesmanship, their diving, their boring, endless sideways passes. Great to see them humbled in their own ground.

Good luck in the final (not the one on the 5th!)

Well, well, well, firstly want to say STICK THAT THE F*CK UP YOU to every LFC supporter who comes on here to give us crap and doesn't know how to read a league table. AnfieldUSA, Kenny you boys are jealous fools who are currently eating some freshly baked humble pie, just taken out of the oven by none other than Fernando 'Big Club' Torres.

Secoundly want to throw out a massive thanks to all the fans that have come on here to congradulate us, all class acts. Really appreciated by us boys.

Thirdly, im speechless about tonight. I cannot express how good this feels. Barca came out before the tie and said they want to prove to the world 09 was not decided by ref. I think they now may just realise it was.

Missing JT for the final is devasting, I feel for the bloke so much, but we know who will be on the touchline besides RDM revving the lads up. Ramires is another massive blow as is Ivan.

Two quick questions.

1 - Is Cech suspended for the final? An Ed has mentioned it somewhere but i didn't think he was?

2 - A lot of rival fans saying that John Terry lied about his sending off but was then shown pictures and retracted his statement? What exactly did he say? I watched it in the pub so didn't see it and i don't have sky at mine so can not watch it again.

Cheers guys.

COME ON CHELS!!!!

I AM IN DREAMLAND!!!

Just gonna mention a few random points and a few relevant ones for no reason at all, other than i am in heaven and waffling due to my excitement.

1) We just effectively beat Barca 2-0 at the Nou Camp, with 2 right backs at centre half, a centre mid at right back, our striker at left back, and with 10 men! WTF??

2) RDM must have some sort of connection to God himself - 2 offside goals against Wigan, the Tottenham 'goal', the 1st leg chances Barca missed, the amount of times they hit the woodwork over both legs, the times Arsenal hit the woodwork, Messi missing a penalty, Barca missing more chances in the second leg etc. He must have a four leaf clover taped to a horse shoe in his pocket at all times!

3) Was there any better way to finish the game than for Nando to come on and do that?! Surely after that he has to be back!? Confidence has to be sky high!

4) Not a bad way for the new team to start off in a new era. Reaching a Champions League final after a team effort like that.

5) If RDM wins the Champs League, he has to walk away, as much as i would love him to stay, he has to walk away. It would be too hard for him to top it, but by all means i would love him to try.

6) Raul Meireles is a legend in my eyes now. With a minute to go he cynically tripped their player to stop him getting at our back 4, knowing he would get booked and miss the Champions League Final. That is the ultimate thing a player can do for the club i love. He is a legend.

7) Feel sorry for JT. I know he deserved it, but it was just so out of character to do something so stupid and leave his team mates in a mess like that. You can guarantee he will be on the sideline barking out instructions like he was against Napoli when we play the final. He deserves to be the one lifting the trophy if we win it.

8) As much as i would like us to win the final, i can honestly say i am just glad to be there. If we lose fairly i will gladly applaud the other team and accept it.

9) I would love Real to go through. If we don't win it then i would like Jose to win it with Real. That way he has done the double for them, taking over Barcelona in the process. After all the stick he gets he deserves that because he is an amazing manager and still a Chelsea legend.

10) Is there a reason why we can only reach Champions League Finals with interim managers in charge? Maybe we should look at not having a manager at all, seems to work better. Next time we have a dodgy start to the season and sack a manager, i am going straight to the bookies and putting a bet on us reaching the Champs League final again.

Finally to finish, as my heart is returning to its normal rhythm. To all the rival fans who congratulate us, thank you, it shows real class and respect. I know in 1999 when United scored 2 in extra time, i was on my feet jumping for joy, and i don't even like them. And again in 2005 when Liverpool pulled it back to 3-2, i was cheering them on, and i don't like them either. But theres something about us English teams that won't allow us to lie down and accept defeat.

And to all Chelsea fans.......FU**ING COME ON!!!!! COME ON YOU BLUE BOYS!!!! MUNICH HERE WE COME!!!! I LOVE YOU ALL YOU BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE!!!!

Day before final - booked off work. Final date - booked off work, day after final - booked off work, next day - booked off work. I will be heading on down to Fulham Road and watching this one with my fellow blues. This is going to be epic.

Longest ever post i've done but i don't care. Love you all x

Thought id repost this as its about 100 comments down after 2nights amazing result :)

In an Realistic/Ideal world my team for next year -


..................Petr Cech...............

....Walker....Luiz....Terry....Cole....

..........Ramires......Modric............

...................Mata.....................

....Di Maria.....Cavani.......Moura....


Buy-

Right Back -

Kyle Walker - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bxUYoq3BXgc

He has the attacking ability of Bosingwa if not better but also the defensive ability of a Ashley Cole. Blistering pace and a eye for a goal.

Estimated Fee - £20m


Central Midfielder -

Luka Modric - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RG_CiVDCqV8

He is the deep lying playmaker that we so desperately lack, he has fantastic feet, reall good vision and can attack but is also a gritty tackler.

Estimated Fee - £30m


Left Wing -

Lucas Moura - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRuTap8MBxg&feature=related

Not much to say really, the 15 minute video just shows how amazing Moura can potentially be, amazing quick feet, blistering pace and skills that will destroy wing backs, the video does also show how greedy he can be but his potential is worth the risk.

Estimated Fee - £35m


Right Wing -

Angel Di Maria - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qld0gVA2LTY&feature=related - 1min 1sec WOW ha

My favourite winger, pace coupled with a bag of skills, with Moura not being the most generous of passers you have an assist machine on the opposite wing in Di Maria, his record speaks for its self, the video once again highlights his dribbling skills but also his ability to pick out a pass, he could compliment Cavani so well.

Estimated Fee - £35m


Striker -

Edinson Cavani - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLheFSzglDc

Once again the video shows what a great striker he is. Goals with his left foot, right foot, benders, pile drivers, headers, chips and poacher type finishes. He is what Drogba was 2 years ago for us now, hes 25 and is a natural goal scorer, he has the size, pace and strength to compete in this league, great player.

Estimated Fee - £40m


1st Team Bench Candidates -

Ross Turnbull
Sam Hutchinson
Gary Cahill
Tomas Kalas
Ryan Bertrand
Oriol Romeu
Frank Lampard
Mikel
Josh McEachran
Gael Kakuta
Daniel Sturridge

Sales -

Henrique Hilario - (Not Needed Anymore)
Jose Bosingwa - (Out Of Contract)
Jeffrey Bruma - (Not Chelsea 1st Team Ability)

Mikel Essein - (Not The Player He Once Was, Plus Promotion of Youth & Purchase of Modric)
Florent Malouda -(Not The Player He Once Was & Purchase of Di Maria)
Raul Meireles - (Wouldnt Get Regular 1st Team Football, Plus Promotion of Youth)
Yossi Benayoun - (Not Needed Anymore)
Salomon Kalou - (Not Chelsea 1st Team Ability & Purchase of Moura)

Loan -

Nathaniel Chabolah
Lucas Piazon
Patrick Van Aanholt

Ive tried to be realistic but also pick an ideal team at the same time, i think all of the sales will happen personally if not this summer then over the january window also.

Would love to here your comments and please watch the player video's ive tried to get some recent good ones.
