  Wellll ... see it this way ... playing against a 10-man Chelsea from the 37th min and Barca only managed a 1-2 scoreline

  Even if it was 11 against 11,i still think Barcelona is still too strong for Chelsea.
  I never placed Chelsea on the same level with Barcelona.

  Champion League is boring without Jose.
  
  But, it will be a test for his chelsea team to overcome Barca in Nou Camp.

  Agreed.
  
  Hoping for a miracle that Chelsea beats them 2 - 0 or 3 - 2 or any other score except 1 - 0.
  2 -1 then shoot penalties lor.

  Come on guys, watch from a neutral view...
  
  Before he was sent off, Del Horno intentionally clipped Messi's knee hard after he had kicked the ball. That to me, was an instant red card offence. No arguments about that. Incredibly, he escaped unscath. In the red-card offence, Del Horno intentionally used his body to foul Messi to prevent him from running past both Robben and him. I would say that the offense deserved at least a yellow card even if a lenient referee were to referee the match. So Del Horno deserved to get sent off.
  
  Puyol should be sent off in the 75th minute (I think) for his second bookable offence. But then seriously, the damage has already been done. Larsson, Messi and Ronaldinho were happily wrecking havoc in the Chelsea defence and only Terry's heroics prevented Barcelona from thrashing.
  
  Mourinho could choose to play defensively, but he opted not to. Instead he gambled attcking with 10 men, which was initially a success. What Mourinho tried to do was to win in Stamford Bridge, and then go over to Nou Camp to play defensively for a draw (judging from Chelsea's away UCL form) to take them through to the next round. His gamble failed, so tood bad for him.
  
  So ultimately, whether Chelsea fans like it or not, Barcelona deserved to win the match!

  I think if there were 11 players against 11 players, Chelsea could have pulled out a victory at home. But that is from me, a Chelsea fan, very biased.
  
  Anyway what's in the past is history. I hope Chelsea will beat the odds to win tonight. Barcelona is favourite to advance but let's see what the English Champions are made of.

  I guess as Chelsea fans we have no choice but to say we're biased in our opinions, huh
  
  Losing to a team like Barca tonight isn't anything to moan about, beating them however ... shucks, where did I leave that bottle of champagne?
  
  Whatever the outcome ... GO CHELSEA!!!

  I still sulking in Hong Kong lah. Miss Soojung also feeling really down. I am sure she will put up some pics after she picks herself up. Right miss soojung?
  
  I admit, Barcelona deserves to go through on their performance over the 2 legs. Chelsea was not at their best and don't deserve to go through.
  
  Good Luck Poolman for your Liverpool against Benfica tonight.

  no mood for now lah.... but think about it, others are trying to take our mind off the fact that we are 17pts clear of them in the EPL. That is consistency, that is something to crow about, that is a sign of a champion.
  
  As fans of Chelsea, we have so little chance to taste defeat that is why now it is so bitter. The others kenna beaten more often that is why they rejoice when Chelsea lose a game.
