I mean this was basically the Middlesboro game all over again only they capitalized where 'boro did not. You allow a team to hang around long enough it will eventually bite you in the end.

I'm confident that we will perform at Stamford Bridge, but there is no margin for error! I can't believe how wrong Grant gets the substitutions.

I know we have an away goal and the place is tough to play, etc, etc. I don't care. This team is a Ferrari with low octane gas and a 80 year old woman in the driver's seat as long as Grant's running the show.

Drogba certainly needs to re-focus and should have been taken off after an hour. It was obvious from the first 10 minutes that he was going to have a poor game. Once he starts the histrionics he's never the same player. Can anyone tell me what Florent malouda has done to warrant a start in a CL quarter final? And Michael Essien at right back, where he looked totally out of sorts, was a mistake particularly when Paolo is keeping the bench warm. Mikel for Lamps? 4 minutes for Anelka? There's only one real change we need to make. I actually fear for the home leg. 0-0? :-( I couldn’t agree more with your comments.

The home leg will be a different story. On a positive note, the Bridge should be re named Stamford Fortress. The home leg will be a different story.
