I don't know another team...

that shows as much grit as Chelsea does.
Its amazing, so many of these big games come down to our team defending for their lives, desperately holding on...
Its so tense, but exciting to watch. And honestly, I wouldn't have it any other way.
I'm extremely proud of this performance, and of those players. I know opposition fans will mock us for this, but the performance really was typical Chelsea.

Tbh I've never seen a team give bayern such a scare in a big game other than Dortmund for a long time other than us

Arsenal last season?

Heroic display by the lads tonight. Even when we went down to ten, still looked dangerous at times on the break. Any other PL team would have been destroyed by Bayern at that point.

Captain 9 of the players that started tonight didn't start against freiburg

First of all I am a fair man and will always give credit where its due. Have to say unlucky tonight as you can see Mourinhos stamp on the team. Pressing and giving opponents minimal time on the ball...Must say was impressed with that side if things and you were extremely unlucky and don't see you losing to many games this season

But hey am also a Spurs fan so I have to say perhaps its Karma but 2 yrs too late..So I have to also...

What I would love to know is when Chelsea are going to actually try and win a big game and not simply cower on the edge of their own box.

Cowards, lol. We did a lot better than Barca did against Munich. Barca didn't even score a goal over two legs, did they? Hehe.

At least Barca took the beating like a men, trying to play them for all 180 mins. At no point did Barca sit on the edge of the box praying Bayern didn't score again.

Nothing worse than dying on your knees.

Barca got destroyed by Bayern, in both games. Despite all their characteristic attempts at cheating when they are not winning.

We defeated ourselves with some poor finishing and a bad penalty. There's no comparison.

I have at times been a critic of how chelsea have played in some big games most noticeably the cl final though the win was sweet then but tonight in no way were we playing so called anti football ,it was classic counter attacking football from us and we are only going to get better at it with time
