Once again Ronaldo fails to perform against a top team....he might have as many goals but i really don't think he's in the same class as Messi. Nice attacking football by Bayern although as someone has mentioned Gomez was a bit wasteful. Anyway, i really enjoyed the match.

I don't expect tonight's match to be that tight, Chelsea's midfield is a bit weak and their defense is also fragile unlike the past under Mourinho's reign. Ashley Cole, Ivanovic, Meireless and Luiz are all one yellow card away from missing the return leg at Camp Nou.....with Messi, Iniesta, Cesc, Sanchez and Co at the front you would expect at least one of them to get a card. Barca's Puyol and Mascherano will also be walking a tight line.

From the angle he was,passing the ball was the only option. The guy sulks in big games. CR7 is good, but Messi, he's the one.
I hope tonight's game won't be a repeat of Ovrebo's. I'm hoping for a decisive, clean win for Barca. That Cuenca boy should be given some minutes to run at cAshley.

Easier said than done. The biggest concern is Chelsea's midfield and defence where they are clearly inferior to Barca

Gonna be a long and tiring game, as usual seeing very little of the ball and needing to finish off the chances IF and when they come.
To be honest expecting the worst,but hoping for the best.
Considering our current position in the EPL this could be our last CL campaign for the next "few" years, especially for the senior players, the lads should go out there and give it their best shot.

Nothing to lose really.

@Kingfisher..let them dis-regard us at their own peril.. I don't know but yesterdays game somehow dissapointed me too cagey for my liking, seems both teams seemed to accord each other respect..i think Bayern are formidable at the Allianz boy thats what you call supporting cast!

The bridges size will/should help us and i hope our midfielders play the game of their lives, i honestly think Lampard should make way for Meireles in this game, he is too slow as Torres once remarked lakini all roads lead to Fulham broadway 2 things wil happen either i will loose my voice/eat kebabs for supper on my way home or the journey home will be long dead and might just sleep on the train and miss my stop..tutaona!! 1-1 my prediction, torres on the sore sheet!
