It looks as though Chelsea seem to be handling it well, so maybe they will get to the final.

Proud of them. Strangely glad that Terry wont play in the final only because of what he stands for

How absolutely wonderful and amazing and utterly brilliant would it be if Chelsea finally win the champions league and terry didn't get a medal. Pmsl at the very thought.

Disappointed really as I was hoping that Barcelona with all its finesse, would grace the Champions League final.

True it would be a good point, a perfect marker for his career, not.

When they cannot beat a 10 man Chelsea??!!   Said it all before - very pretty, but finesse alone doesn't win you games.
A thoroughly deserved win for Chelsea, and let's not forget they conceded TWO goals to a 10 man side. CHUMPS
.... and regardless of what you think of Terry - He WILL receive a medal if they take the trophy

If I knew in advance that Chelsea were going to win the CL Spurs may as well forfeit their remaining games and send the players on their hols.

Chelsea haven't won the CL yet - they have some of their best players out of the final because of bookings and there is the little matter of facing Bayern Munich (at home) or Real Madrid.

However, fair play to Chelsea - a sterling performance - they got through despite Barcelona winning a predictable penalty which Messi missed

Public spending cuts now, are a result of Brown's lack of prudence as Chancellor and PM.

As someone said elsewhere, Gary Neville probably had his longest w@ak ever before shooting his load after Torres scored.

Indeed. And they won't be parking the bus like they had to this evening. Assuming Real get to the final I think they'll tear Chelsea a new one.

Hats off to Chelsea, a resolute and determined performance that showed everything that has been lacking from Tottenham these last few months.    With any luck Harry will show them the video and tell them to grow some "balls" for the remaining four games of the season and get back to the kind of form that got everyone talking earlier in the season!!

I can understand why you want the Chavs to win the CL. And it's a perfectly legitimate reason too.

If I was a Chelsea fan I'd be hoping that Real get into the final instead of Bayern. I know that man for man Real are probably the better side but I can well imagine what that stadium will be like on the night on the final should the Germans reach it; Munich's version of the San Siro probably.

Of course there would be an advantage as it would be their home ground. But on the stands it would be different. The ticketing for these Euro finals is worse than the FA Cup. By the time all of the neutrals and the UEFA / FIFA officials have taken their chunk what is left for the supporters of the two sides is usually small! Chelsea should in theory get the same number of supporters tickets as Bayern fans, should they reach the final of course.

I remember tryng to get tickets for the UEFA Cup fianl in 2007, there were only 12,000 tickets per club that year for supporters!!!!!! I was lucky as I entered a ballot and got a couple in a 'neutral area'.

I remember the game well, sitting in a bar in Cyprus and witnessing Shhhteeve being tactically outdone by the soon-to-useless Ramos. The F.A. really should have factored this game in before giving him the England job.
