Alright Chelsea fans, United fan here.
I did open Notepad and wrote a big article congratulating you on your victory last night, but instead, I'll just say this.
That's how you beat Barca!
Well done!!!

Unfortunately, there's another leg to come, and i don't think Chelsea will be able to cover the same ground in the giant Nou Camp pitch as they did at Stamford Bridge.
Well done though. They'll also be under a bit of pressure and fatigue may play a part and they have a El Classico match this Saturday.

I thought the same thing, but someone reminded me that Chelsea have Arsenal too this weekend.

They do at the Emirates, but this is were is gets interesting.
Argubly, the biggest game for Chelsea is the Arsenal match, yet it looks as though they've played there big players in the Barca match. Fatigue will no doubt play a part for them too and if they lose against Arsenal, that's top 4 out of the window and all eggs are in the Nou Camp match basket.

Neither do I,we will probably need to be more attacking away from home than we were at home.
such is the nature of the two legged tie and the away goal rule, the key thing when playing Barcelona is do not concede at home.
Our best route to an away goal in the Camp Nou is from corners, but we have scored every time we have played at the Camp Nou, so that is the straw I shll grasp.
