When Mourinho won league titles with Chelsea wasn't their top scorer Frank Lampard?

wouldn't it be gas if Drogba scored a hat trick at the Bridge to knock the 4th English club out before the QFs?

Good result for Chelsea well placed to go through now. Schalke hammered at home as was Leverkusen two sides English clubs would beat.

Is this a pisstake?

Chelsea team up with 'The Simpsons'
The deal, which is in partnership with Twentieth Century Fox Consumer Products, will see the introduction of a new co-created line of Chelsea-branded merchandise featuring the show's main characters - Homer and Bart Simpson.

Chelsea chief executive Ron Gourlay told the club's official website: "We are very pleased to announce such an exciting partnership.

"The Simpsons is a hugely popular show and I hope Chelsea fans will enjoy seeing its main characters in our colours."

Chelsea players Petr Cech, Eden Hazard, Frank Lampard, John Terry and Fernando Torres were all 'Simpson-ised' to celebrate the announcement.

Terry said: "It's great to see myself and the other players as Simpsons characters.

"The Simpsons was and still is my favourite show, and is now my kids' too. I can't wait to see what Bart and Homer will look like as Chelsea players."

No prizes for guessing who Sideshow Bob is.

Any truth in the rumour that Fat Tony will play Rafa?

The day John Terry Chelsea handed City the title.

Absolutely shocking stuff from Chelsea there. I can't remember a Mourinho managed Chelsea team playing worse.  Luiz was a walking disaster.

Why are people so obsessed with the cost of players/squads these days? It is 11 professionals against another 11 professionals.

[Captain Obvious]

I think Petr Cech could have saved that Javier Pastore goal. Chelsea missed some big chances tonight and will do well to win this tie now.  Mourinho is still doing well with this Chelsea squad, in fairness they aren't anywhere near the level of 2005,06.

Very few clubs have that sort of money.
It's like an oligopoly.

What Nottingham Forest did is impossible nowadays.

Chelsea do face an uphill task after losing that tie 3-1, but i wouldn't write them off yet. Ibrahimovic could be out, and Chelsea are bound to be a much stronger attacking threat at home.
