So the previous 80 mins were a 10 man defence broken by a 10 second run and concluded with another 9 mins 50 secs of defending. Classic. 😆
EDIT: I’ve already said that Barças job was to find a way around them, no matter how boring it is. but again Chelsea need to think about being part of the entertainment industry now. It’s not simply a question of winning. Ask del Bosque.

It’s a shame they don’t have the confidence to do it the whole game.

winning the game on aggregate and a man down against the best team on the planet…yes it was daft to lack the confidence to attack at that point.

I was just wondering, with this kind of tactical acumen, are you free this summer to manage Engerland?

I’d love to. Check what I’ve said about entertainment too. 😉
I can think of another english team that plays attractive attacking football, sometimes less attractive when Scholes is on, but definitely attacking.

It was nailbiting, compelling viewing. Entertaining like one of those films that leaves you hiding behind your hands.

And I’m not even a Chelsea fan.

It was frustrating. 😀
I was slightly impartial.

The one that tried to outplay Barca and made last year’s CL final the most boring, one sided one for years? It was like watching a Premier League side play a non-league side in a preseason friendly for excitement.

Weirdest noise of the evening – Gary Neville having a stroke when Torres scored:

does anyone else follow @TheBig_Sam on twitter?

“Was having a w**k with a Midnight Jasmine Yankee Candle placed strategically under my balls when that Torres goal went in. What a moment. I never thought I’d utter these words but Gary Neville’s commentary actually enhanced my orgasm. Fair play to him, he’s a winner”

@theotherjonv – no, but I have just dribbled with laughter reading that quote so thanks 🙂

Now this is entertaining. 😀
