UEFA CL - Liverpool vs Chelsea :08 April 09: 1st Leg

[samo]

Chelsea show some real heart in de second half... Chelsea all the way....
On the Torres vs Drogba issue, Torres is a forward with some slick touches and real finesse, Drogba, have his touches but is just a different kind of beast... I like Torres,but I would pick Drogba over him....

[injunchile]

Big Coach and Big side. Had Ballack scored the fat lady would have ben singing. At this level you have to take chances and put them away. Lesson for T&T - Goalkeepers cant afford to mess up and half chances must count. Barca here we come.

Case in point.
In setting up Ballack's chance.

People does cry down Drogba and call him diver. He went for a 50/50 ball with Carragher.
Carragher drop a level shoulder on Drogba, who kept his balance and stay up. The outpace Drogba, look up and put the ball on a platter to Ballack.

That one play is everything we could ever dream KJ to be.

Quick note on teh Goalkeeping or lack of it.

Man real cry down the Barcelona keeper Valdes for Juninho goal on the freekick versus Lyon. Which I felt discredited Juninho's brilliance on the freekick.

So what now with Chec and Reyna? Awful goalkeeping by both keepers today and both freekick should have been saved IMHO

But so it goes for keepers.

I come to the conclusion that Liverpool players had magnets in dey pocket and that was f**king with the metal plates in Cech head.

That is the only explanation for the rank sh!t he play today.

He is a diver and a noted drama queen. Perhaps it is because he is a good player that people critisize him for that. People want to see good players play the game, not perform for Broadway. That play you are describing highlights why people "cry down" the man.

Great Game.... I was hoping it stayed 2-0 so Liverpool could get knocked out and have a hangover with their what if's and maybe's and Chelsea to be disappointed with their performance sending them into a mini crisis

but 4-4 was good for the neutral and I enjoyed it

Good show by the EPL

As a Chelsea fan, I would not call him a drama queen, maybe a drama princess at times, the real drama queen is Ronaldo, he doh even get touch, but does jump flip and roll like flikking Greg Lougannis

   I honestly believe that if he would spend a fraction more of his time playing instead of being a Drama Queen, he could be the top striker in world football.  Just as good an example of the pass he made to Ballack is the actual goal he scored.  Take a look at the replays again and you will see that goal was born out of sheer commitment and it was a play he had no right making.  It caught both the defender and Pepe reina by surprise and why Reina mis-handled the play.  Jamie Carragher is a man dat does give Drogba a real good fight out of all the defenders in the epl.  Today, though, was not a day for DDQ to be denied.

Well Fergie "lecture" him yesterday .... not about the diving, just about the drama queen business.
He need him to keep diving to influence the ref tomorrow. That is the only way ManUre could win that game. thief.

That's why he does always punish Liverpuddle. Same thing last year, Rafa try to call him on diving and he destroy liverpuddle.  Hate him, love him, he is the best.

use ur damn head... hiddink definitely not having chelsea play that shit defence (note that b/c they were forced to attack the game was more open and liverpool wasnt going to give up at all it ended up being a high scoring game) against barca... not that it should be really blamed on the back 4 much tho... but any person who really taking this game into context and arguing that barca going to run over chelsea b/c of this needs a kick in the stones... against different opposition the manager will employ different tactics and remember terry will be back and cole will finally be replaced

[giggsy11]

Great match, well done Chelski, hope Barca cut allyuh arse!
So this week Cavaliho was Torres' daddy!
No longer can a match between Chelski and Liverstool be considered shite on a stick.
Great managing by the Fat Spanish Waiter!
Droga is a serial drama transexual
Chelski will have no fullbacks against Barca-Alves will have a field day!
Go United!

Yo I will give you a cyber high 5 on that one! Liverstool's team are made up mostly Olympic divers-Riera, Alonso, Lucas, Gerrad 9(head trainer-11 times gold medalist), Macharano,Torres-but leave it tuh Mr. Liverstool fan tuh focus on other teams 'bullars'. Hmmm can you say- 'in the closet'?

AAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA


be sure to watch liverstool self destruct over the next few weeks
 

- very entertaining game though, liverpool went fighting til the end. They deserve props for that, u can never underestimate them.

Hmmm, thanks for sharing some more about yourself/projecting so far you have disclosed-you are a mental midget who has a history of riding on the short bus (still painful?); you are also confused about your sexual orientation ( is that why you don't bother going back and forth?) and your age; last but not least you like to use the forum to reach out to others who may have similar issues. I am sorry to say I am not like you, but like I said it was nice learning some more about you. So I hope in your response to this you can share some more about yourself, ok? PS: Does mommy or daddy know that you share these things about yourself on the computer?

Pepe Reina doh need bulletproof vest, him need bulletproof skin..... bulletproof face, neck, forrid and chin! - copyright Bounty Killer.

Big side is big side.

Where all the men who say letting go Scolari was a mistake?

I can say unequivocally that this side was never coming back from 2 goals down if Big Phil was still at the helm. The belief, the steel and the resilience is back.

I think Chelsea v Barcelona will be alot closer than people making it out to be although the Ashley Cole suspension is a massive problem since that's the side Messi and Alves coming down from and there is no recognized left back replacement in the squad right now. Maybe we could chook Essien there.

But that game should be the final especially given that the other semi-final will be Villareal vs Porto.

Highlights - 2nd leg.

Who actually think Barca-Chelsea not going to be a tight affair? Dat is way too much hype. Last time I check, in recent years Barca has not had the answer against EPL teams late in the competition. And not just one..it's been Liverpool, ManU and Chelsea in recent years. So this semifinal is going to be real tough for the Blaugrana.

[freakazoid]

barca was out ah form last 2 seasons, but the english teams still showed them much respect, which is the only way to beat baarca. sit deep and counter. the years  b4 chelsea had 2 decent pacy wingers .which  would open barca's lack of speed in defence

[LondonTrini LFC]

12 goals over 2 legs... classic stuff....

they will be talking about that game for the next 12 years...

[Filho]

By the way..anyone see the absolutely horrendous defensing by fabio Aurelio in the lead up to Lampard's first goa. I am sure Benitez will let him have it when they review the game. After his freekick goal..dat is what you call balancing your account. Look at 1:49 in when he looks to see where Lampard is, then he just jogs and lets Lampard go free in the box and never reacts..he just jogs will the cross comes to the Chelsea midfielder. Ah mean..I'm I exaggerating, or is this stunningly bad.
