Looking like a Man Utd v Chelsea Euro final for the 2nd year in a row. I was really hoping to see Man Utd v Barcelona. May go out for a ride on 27th May instead now...... roads will be quiet round my way

    Chelsea could do with scoring another though - one goal from Barcelona and it turns everything on it's head at the moment.

    But I just can't see Barca scoring. Cech hasn't had to make a save yet

    Get in there......but my god were the Chav's robbed...look at Drogba the idiot on the telly. He's biggest cheat of them all!!!

    At least 3 good shouts for a penalty there.

    Anything that means Drogba doesn't play in a final is good in my book...... The fact that the rest of Chelsea won't be there and Barca will is just a bonus.

    They did have 3 good shouts for a penalty, but there was a dodgy sending off as well as a foul on Messi that wasn't given just outside the area.

    I can't believe they are arguing over having a different ref....... not the ref's fault that he's from Norway and doesn't get to be involved in matches at the "highest level" week in week out.

    Exactly, a fouls a foul, a goals a goal no matter who the ref is! It wasn't a sending off either. He tripped over his own feet.

    It serves the Chelsea rent boys right for thinking 0-0 at the Camp Nou was a result.........




    BARCA! BARCA! BARCA!

    Won't be watching it. Hate watching the manc's play. Sickens me when they get some shocking decisions their way. As long as Barca win I'll be happy.

    I'd like to see Man Utd win 4-3 in a thriller. Partly cos Fergie might go after that.......

    Arsenal - raw talent
    Liverpool - raw passion
    Man Utd - raw power
    Chelsea - stolen money

    which of these do we wish to see prevail?

    Man Utd may have raw power but they do have some fantastic players who also show a lot of passion ie: Rooney, Fletcher, Brown. It's been good to see Berbatov sat on the bench recently, he is not good enough for Man Utd

    As an aside..... I'd like to see Liverpool win the title this season, but they just don't have the quality yet, especially not outside the first 11.

    Sold as seen mate :P . I was steaming when I saw him poncing about at Old Trashford during the last hour of the transfer window. I should have realised that they were made for each other :twisted: .

    That'll learn Fergie for buying off Ebay.

    Made up for it with that penalty miss though, oh how I laughed (nearly as much as whenb I saw the look on Wenger's face after the second goal on Tuesday).!

    Think you got the better end of the bargain Stewie. If only Juande had the sense to buy a decent replacement...... maybe Owen will get fit and make an appearance there, or even Peter Crouch

    What a bunch of footballing snobs, British Barca supporters,they only had one shot and didn`t deserve to win.They think they have a divine right to win just like Arsenal do but Chelsea had far more chances plus the most obvious penalty appeal you could see,not given.{the Piquet handball}.

    ......BUT, if Drogba had spent less time on his arse or rolling about on the turf there would have been less added time and, possibly, no goal?

    Snob??? I support Coventry so hardly a footballing snob. I just have an intense dislike for Chelsea (no reason, I also have a loathing for Luton) and would rather see a Barca v Man Utd final than Chelsea Man Utd.

    The best team doesn't always win. Think Arsenal v Man Utd FA Cup final 2005(?)

    Missed the game and the drama entirely as I was out but sounds like high drama. I was at first pleased that Barca will be in the final as it should make for a more interesting game but then if they only managed to engineer one chance against Chelsea then maybe it won't be a great final after all? Chelsea obviously had them worked out. I'm no Chelsea fan but I hope Man U hammer Barca now although I was thoroughly pssed off that Arsenal aren't going to be there.

    Barca were also missing a few half decent players..... Puyol, Marquez, Henry, which seriously weakened their defence (Yaya Toure, an attacking midfielder, played centre back) and took an edge away from their attack. They'll all be back for the final which should leave them more evenly matched. Just have to hope the game is more exciting than last year's semi final now

    Drogba is very annoying,the worst was against Man City when he got hit on the leg by the ball and threw himself to the ground and rolled over,thinking he had been kicked by Danny Mills.He seems to have a very low pain threshhold for a big man.
    If you missed it you have to see the penalty appeals plus the tantrums at the end.High drama indeed.
    Guillano,those players you mention aren`t so great,more importantly they will be missing both fullbacks.
