Over the last few years, I've made a heck of a lot of money backing any team Guus Hiddink manages in knockout football tournaments (South Korea, Australia, Russia) and I'm not going to back against the guy now. Chelsea to get through to meet United in the final...again. Except this time Chelsea to win.
Yes it would be same final atleast bookies suggesting it and also suggesting same results too as last year. I would go with my team to become first team to defend UCL title.
Hiddink is a master coach but they still won't beat United if they make the final, they are not the same class.
So strange how you guys start making assumptions so fast. Chelsea will be knocked out in the semis only.Remember Hiddink hasn't defeated Barca as a coach ever..
I don't think they will. Barca looked awesome today beating Real Madrid 6-2 away and Chelsea will want revenge more than anything this year. One of these teams they'll have to face - that's if they can get past the mighty Gunners.
Chelsea are playing much, much better than Real Madrid at this moment. Allowing Puyol to get a free header for the second goal was a shocker, and so was Diarra giving the ball away to Xavi. Real got the offside trap totally wrong for the first and the fourth goals, and the fifth and sixth ones came when Juande Ramos had taken Sergio Ramos off for Van der Vaart. Barcelona were great, but Real helped them with some very poor defending. Chelsea are defensively very strong. If Barcelona score early though, we are in for a great game.
It wouldn't help anything, even on that performance WHU can also beat Real Madrid. Well Chelsea knows what they need to do and they have home advantage to make sure to go in final.
Notice how the majority of the teams in the Champions League semis are English teams. They dominate European football today and the Premier League is the best in the world!!!!
Barca V Chelsea. Have stuck major dablumes on over 2.5 goals tonight. I can't see Barca not scoring. If they do score once then Chelsea will need two and Barca's got a fair few defenders missing. Come on the BARCA!
Final will be Barca - Manu Barcelona after Real match is unstoped. Even great Dutch coach don't help Chelsea. To many great players in Barca. Iniesta, Messi etc...
Dont worry.Messi will turn on his magic today.No stopping the world's best player. Yes , Barca are in a great form after thrashing Madrid. Barca
I am sure we have same final this season too, I can't see Barcelona stop Chelsea in Semi, specially at away.
Yes same final, and I am sure we would have same results too! Manchester United going to first team to defend title.
Barcelona need to score at the Bridge. Their defending against Real was awful- both Higuain and Ramos were given free headers. Chelsea's physical presence, coupled with the absence of Marquez and Puyol, could mean a difficult night for Pique and Abidal/Caceres/Toure.
