Rant Box: Chelsea v Juventus

By: Jack | March 9th, 2009

OK, there’s this small matter of a Champions League second leg in Turin tomorrow. Maybe you’ve heard about it.

Some small Italian club known as the “Old Lady” is expecting to overturn a one-goal deficit and oust our beloved “fighting machine” from Europe’s most grand of competitions. I don’t think so, girlfriend!

There’s really not much to say here. You all know what’s at stake. You all know what to expect.

So I’ll add just one more thing … in three short words: Michael F**king Essien. Let The Bison eat!

If you’re interested in a Juve supporter prospective, Alessio from Juventus Offside unleashed a thesis of nonsense in one of my posts just a short while ago. It’s not his — and I haven’t read it — but I assume it’s equally mundane entertaining.

  Totally agree. Essien will keep the Chelsea defence locked up tighter than a cookie jar!

  great game. ESSIEN !!! That geovinco kid was ripping us apart w/ his speed and moves though… he caused chelsea to get like 3 yellow cards… belleti should of freakin kept his hands down even if he was pushed from behind, he got both hands on the ball. Oh well, goin to the final 8. I’d like to avoid Bayern and Barcelona…

  great game today, deservedly through to the final 8.

  we may as well knock out liverpool in the quarter finals, the champions league draw is rigged and they’ll make sure we play eachother somewhere along the line.

  go blues!

  I’m still rather pissed that Buffon “saved” a goal after it crossed the line.

  Haha true dat. Kudos to Iaquinta’s goal though.. what an awesome pass from Trezeguet.. and that small bald kid Giovinco troubled us alright. I secretly want Chelsea to meet Barca. It’s been so long since. Hopefully for the finals or something important haha
