Read the question again,how were Chelsea one of the best teams in this years competition when we beat Barca and Chelsea
Liverpool and Milan certainly deserved to contest the final without doubt,any team who knocks out Barcelona and Chelsea deserves to be in the final and likewise with Milan for beating Man Utd and Bayern |
You beat Chelsea on pens. The game of football was a 1-1 aggregate draw and even your own man Benraul unwittingly admitted that Chelsea were the better team over both legs (he said the second game wasn't much tighter than the first - work it out). You had all your main players fit whilst Chelsea had several big injuries, but they still played better.
As for Barca, you drew 3-3 on aggregate. Chelsea beat them over both home and away games 2-1 on aggregate. Chelsea topped a group which featured not only the Catalans but a very dangerous Werder Bremen. Your group was p!ss easy. You beat a p!ss poor PSV side in the quarters without their best player (Alex) whilst Chelsea banged out Valencia, beating them in their own stadium to qualify.
Chelsea were more deserving. |
we were much better than Chelsea in the second leg. it shouldn't have even gone to penalties. did you forget about kuyt's goal that was disallowed? |
Chelsea never had the luxury of resting 8 players in the lge game before like you lot did, due to the fact that they still had a lge title to challenge for, while you had been out the title race since November. Utd and
Chelsea suffered in Europe for being successful domestically, the 2 teams with nothing to play for at home and able to rest players before CL ties reached the final, that says it all
