Could result in Shakhtar not qualifying, meaning we might have a better chance of Willian. Trying to look on the brightside !

Or a better chance of them knocking us out of the Europa! Although I like your thought better.

I logged in just to make this point. I never support Chelsea but I was not unhappy to see them win this tonight as it gives us a better chance of getting our dirty mitts on the boy Willian.

Also, the further they progress, the more games they have to play this season, the more chance of us winning the league...

That Chelsea/Shaktar game was a damn good game. Shaktar are a very good side, but that attacking trio of Mata, Oscar & Hazard are fucking superb. Clever, mobile & incisive and all just fucking kids. Scary. Torres is a great fulcrum for them too.

I really like the team that Shaktar have put together too. Well coached.

Didn't chelsea's goal come after the four minutes were up, seems to me the refs add time on for corners these days not just penalties as they're supposed to. Not that bothered about the result but that seems wrong.

This is most ridiculous set of stats I've ever seen (are they real)?

Yeah, they're the ones Sky showed last night alright. Just goes to show, you can have all the possession you like, no use if you don't turn it into goals. As I said earlier, it was the same against Chelsea last year, Barca just didn't take their chances.

That must be the most passes by a team in a champions league game, right? Barcelona broke the record for the most passes in a La Liga game ever a few years ago with less than that total up there

Cool. Do they get three points for that?

Is it me or does the ITV 4 commentary team have its collective tongue up Jonjo Shitvey's arse?
