If you want to be a deserved European champion, you gotta beat any team at any stage. The first leg is at the Bridge. I’d have preferred the second leg at home. Valencia was the team that every big gun wanted to avoid and here they are facing us in the Champions league quarters. The rest of the draw: Liverpool vs PSV Eindhoven, Manchester United vs AS Roma & Bayern Munich vs AC Milan.
Valencia might have some of their players suspended for their end of match wrestlemania with Inter. When I saw the video, I wasn’t thinking of suspensions. I feared that some of them could get even get arrested by police! If the Carling cup brawl resulted in 4 red cards, this one should have atleast half of either teams wiped off with suspensions.

If we get a 1-0 at the Bridge, I’m sure Jose’s tactics will see us through in Estadio Mestalla.
ooh not too bad, PSV would have been nicer imo but as long as its not an english club, I think we meet Liverpool in the semi final again if we both win.
I don’t know, I’ve heard tons of hesitation about facing Valencia. I disagree: they’ve been through a brawl that should rob them of a couple of players, their forwards are terrific, but over all, our midfield is the best in the competition, and so is our keeper. We’ll win 1-0 at home and tie 1-1 in Valencia.
Don’t forget the best striker in the competition.
Well that’s a given, Errrric :D
to be honest with you, two days ago I was talking to one of my friends who is from Spain and one of a Valencia fans, he said Chelsea-Valencia is the final this year and I smiled and told him , you never know maybe sooner than Final.
I watched Valencia-Inter two times, thought it was kind of boring. Valencia really is a good team, they are great. they were my second fevaortie when Cooper was their coach and they had players such as Kily Gonzales or ready Aimar.
u guys know what happened at the end of the Valencia game varsus Inter, u know some fights and unproffisional nehavior, I hope, I hope Fifa suspend some of Valencia players, i don’t know they will do that or not, but I hope. thereby we can qualify easilly, otherwise we will have a hard time in Spain.
but, don’t forget, chelsea is also a good team.
hey guys i have some good news for you.
Valencia have been plagued by injuries this season with Carlos Marchena, David Albelda, Emiliano Moretti, Jaime Gavilan, Mario Regueiro and Edu all suffering from long-term injury problems. and you can add Baraja to this list.
valencia coach claimed that Del Horno can give them good information about the style of chelsea, but I don’t think so, just one year, or precisely one unsuccessful year.
what do you think?
hi all, could someone pls tell me if Alex of PSV is a Chelsea player? i heard a lot of rumours about him actually being a Chelsea player. i dont know the real truth but what i know is RA wanted him but not JM. pls someone? BC? roman holiday?
Hi guys ,
I think that Alex is CFC -owned player. I think I read it somewhere and it said that he couldn’t cos not enough caps in national team Lucio was in great form there
,But did u read the news about the Valencia president a Senor Moron guy saying that we were the weakest English team in the CL . LOL LOL .
Well if he really believes that he’s gonna get a taste of reality that Barca got. Where has the fellow been the last 2-3 years? Anyway he has to say stupid things like that cos his tarnished squad are gonna be bashed by both UEFA and CFC. Altho I dunno in which order that’s gonna be .
We just gotta get JT and Boularouz fit and ready. Then anything and everything is possible.
Guys . I can smell the Champions league Trophy.
Absolutely RomanHoliday! I can smell it too! Look what Adonis said. Surely they would have some of their players suspended for their brawl with Inter. It’s not that we need this kind of help from heaven but it does help in making things easier and more comfortable. In any case, I see us winning this tie. I also expect Chelsea to put in more efforts in this tie than in the Porto one. Remember, the fire in the bellies when we played Barca in the group league. If we put in such a majestic performance, we’ll get a chance to avenge the defeat by the goal that never was, against Liverpool.
Boruff! Answer for your ‘Alex’ question in the next post.
Champions League Trophy is for the blues. Dont never fair
Hi guys,
The draw is not so bad, but I think Valencia players will be suspended after the games with us, if they will be suspended at all.
I think we will reach semi-finals but our road to the Final again crosses Anfield. Many of us keep talking of the revenge but it won’t be easy at all. I watched both Liv-Barca matches and Liverpool is in a great form. They have nothing left for them this year except the Champions League.
For now let’s just hope that we beat Valencia and PSV beats Liverpool.
Cheers.
Its a given, we got Valencia !!!!
I say revenge time for liverpool should we meet, and I believe the blues have what it takes to defeat those red mother fu$£^* :)
Guys I just moved to london, if any chelsea fans out there want to meet up for the game at a pub or something, e-mail me cause most of my mates are all reds and gunners fans!!!!!!!!!!! my e-mail is chesworth11@hotmail.com I just need to watch the game with some blues!!!
We dont need to think about valencia we gonna beat them 7-0 hopefully.
