UEFA Champions League 2017/18

[Szumi]

That was terrific. We absolutely ripped them apart. Everyone was exceptional tonight, amazing stuff.

Fuck. I'm not even expecting a good result from this game - score-draw at best - but hype videos like this have made me excited/anxious as all hell.

Chelsea haven't selected a true striker, but it's a surprisingly attacking line-up nonetheless. Hazard, Willian, Pedro and Fabregas all start? Blimey.

[Adam]

I've gone for a Chelsea win, 2-1, in Super 6. I've got 16 points twice in the last three rounds so I hope I continue that upward curve. A million quid would come in handy.

But yeah, I just have a feeling about Chelsea tonight.

[MDK]

I just hope both teams have fun and remember that it is the taking part that counts 

[stokeriño]

I just hope Suarez ate before the game.

He had Chellieni Arabiata for tea.

Well after the first 10 minutes this has settled down into much as expected. Chelsea sitting 5-4-1 without the ball while Barca rack up a thousand passes.

[MDK]

Did they start with a theoretical 343?

Yes. Off the ball, Alonso/Moses drop into defence, and Willian/Pedro drop into midfield.

Willian hits the post~! >_<

[MDK]

Soon we might end up with sweepers. I like it.

[stokeriño]

Fucking hell, Willian - the other post now!

Hit the bar and nab the 'perfect' woodwork hat-trick.  

[MDK]

Barcelona's goalposts motm at the moment

WILLIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN

[MDK]

Such a nice hit. Thought he'd shifted it too far to his right before the shot.

[stokeriño]

9th time lucky for Messi.

[Arjen Robben]

Worst performance from a Christensen since Attack of the Clones

Welp

But I'm at least heartened that we played a lot, lot better than I thought we would.

Damn. Gonna need some kind of suit to recover from that burn.

[Colly]

Well I completely forgot there was Champions League tonight. 

Sunderland tho. 

[Baddar]

Looking forward to tonight, although like Stok, am only realistically expecting a draw.

Got Leganes v Real Madrid in La Liga to watch just before it to pass some time, too!
