Lampard was the man of the match. 2 beautiful assists.
I bet he will grab the Chelsea Player of the Year.
Even though we start very slowly during the game, we managed to score a goal.
Thanks to superb individual performance by Malouda.
Alex also need to be praised for throwing his body on the line.
Lastly, what else can I say about Drogba. For me, he is the best striker in the world.
I love the way he bullied Silvestre, Eboue & Toure. They just can't handle him!

Players rotations is very important because the gap between each match is not long.
So, we need to rest some key players. Essien must be subtituted with Mikel.
Play Mancienne at RB and Ivanovic at LB.
We need to see whether Ivanovic can play at LB before facing Barcelona.

My line-up for tonight's game:



---------------------------------------------------Cech---------------------------------------------------------------------------


---------Ivanovic----------------------Terry---------------Alex-------------------------------------Bosingwa------------------


---------------------------------------------------Essien---------------------------------------------------------------------------


--------------------------------------Lampard-----------------------Ballack---------------------------------------------------


-------------------------Anelka------------------------------------------------------------Malouda--------------------------------


-------------------------------------------------Drogba-------------------------------------------------------------------------


To win this game, we need to stop henry, eto'o and messi.
Again, Essien is needed to nullify Xavi who will try to feed their strikers by using through ball.
Our advantage is our aerial ability. We had enough people to score during set pieces.
If we can give good performance against Liverpool, we need to give the best performance against them.

We got the same instinct, I guees.
If there is any changes, it will be Kalou for Anelka

I bet Ramos didn't learn from Chelsea.
He didn't know how to counter Barcelona's attack.
Their defenders were awful.

Well, I thought GH must be watching the Real Madrid vs Barcelona game.
We cannot the do gung ho approach even though we're playing at home.
We must be patient and attack them through the counter attack.

To go to Rome, we have to defeat Barca.
Let's just focus our mind to this game first.
My line-up for the game against Barcelona.




------------------------------------------------------------------Cech---------------------------------------------------------------


-------Bosingwa------------------------Terry----------------------------------Alex-------------------------Ashley Cole--------


---------------------------------------------------------------Essien-----------------------------------------------------------------


-------------------------------------------Ballack----------------------------------------Lampard----------------------------------


------------------------------Anelka----------------------------------------------------------Malouda-----------------------------


-------------------------------------------------------------Drogba------------------------------------------------------------------

To play it safe or to attack from the first minute?????
Let's hope the guys can get an early goal to distract Barca's mentality.
Pace is everything in this game. We do have the physical strength to match them!

To defeat Barcelona, we have to be very,very disciplined as a team.
It's not about marking Messi, Iniesta, or Xavi in this game.
It's about how tight the defenders to approach each Barca players when they have the ball.
Lampard must perform his best to feed the ball to the strikers. He seems lost during the first leg.
As Ashley Cole is coming back for this game, I hope both him and Malouda can combine to tear the Barca's defence.


Alex,Anelka, and Ballack will miss the Final if they get yellow card tonight and wins tonight's game!

We missed our chances. That's it,
I'm really proud with my team.
We went out with our heads held high

This is the turning point of our squad.
Some of our ageing players will be replaced!
So sad that JT do not has the chance to lift the Big Ears this season!

Even though Drogba missed his chances, I do not blame him.
He tried his best. Valdes also had been superb.
Sometimes the decision goes ur way, sometimes it goes against u
So close yet so far to Rome!

This thread will be the busiest thread for the next 24 hours

We will bounce back for the next season.
I believe Drogba will stay here until he lifts the Big Ears Cup!

If u ask me, I don't want both Mancs and Barcelona to win the Champions League.
For me, Chelsea had won the cup of my heart.

I voted for Essien's goal against Barcelona. That was superb!

I hope Malouda stay for another season.
Imagine both him & Joe Cole play together.
If Ancelotti comes to Chelsea, let's hope he doesn't repeat the same mistakes as Scolari.
However, my instinct is telling me that there's someone else. RA is keeping the secret!

My instinct was right.
I voted Lamps for Player of the Year & Essien's goal against Barcelona.
I also glad that Ashley Cole won an award. He deserved it for his performance!

Goal of the Season - Michael Essien vs Barcelona.

Young Player of the Year - Michael Mancienne.

Special Award: Commitment to the Club - John Terry.

Special Recognition Award - CLIC Sargent Charity.

Players' Player of the Year Award - Ashley Cole.

Fans' Player of the Year Award - Frank Lampard.

I thought he want Kaka to follow him, not Beckham

Spikee, it's better if u can tell us how to convert the HK currency into RM.

I hope Malouda stays at Chelsea next season.
I think he is the most improved player this season!
