Chelsea we're clinical. Amazing what Tuchel has done with the team
Oh be quiet, you utter muppet. If you watch league football in Spain and Portugal you'll see that's a fact.
To be fair, some Premier league teams aren't far behind these days, but those leagues have always been worse for it. Removed

The PL seems bad week to week but then you watch European teams and its a whole other level. You’d think the Porto players would have developed a bit more steel after a few training sessions with Pepe.
Luckily the ref didn’t fall for it as badly as others have - Mount’s ridiculous 1st minute card against AM.

Yes, they scored two goals and won, but they looked uncomfortable playing out from the back (not sure why they do that) and sloppy at times. I wish they would just go for it instead of all this endless passing (like Barceloan on valium). Good luck to them.
In all honesty, what does it matter?As a Chelsea fan I’m delighted with Mount’s development this season where I can see him becoming a top player. I’m also happy to see Foden given more opportunities and prove that he is a special talent. I can foresee a whole Gerrard Vs Lampard debate in the future! Why not just enjoy the talent that both Foden & Mount possess? That is aimed more at the responses
Patrol ??
Prefer Lampard to a German.

I've had the same thing happen when I was questioning the game's integrity with refereeing decisions in favor of Real Madrid and them being "Anti-Bayern" in the past, but xenophobic comments are perfectly "fine" for BBC.
You're right. It's a joke!

Think there's a curse on center forwards at CFC since Ossie's ashes we're spread on the pitch at the bridge!

" West From was a blip"
Yes West From could be called a blip.
But West Brom certainly wasn't.
Chelsea were humiliated 5-2 at home by a team about to be relegated!
Embarrassing.
That's why most of the "passionate" Chelsea fans so happy to talk tonight went into hiding over the weekend.
It's what they do!
Let's hope Palace can "blip" you again on Saturday.
Thursday nights are comin!

Frankfurt put 5 past Bayern last season! Then Bayern easily took lfc European title of them ! Villa 7_2
We were 1-0 up before the red card. People just need something to talk about.
To be fair, my own personal view is that we were poor from the start against West Brom and I felt on the day that the whole attitude seemed wrong. West Brom played very well against 10 and took their chances brilliantly, but even before the sending off there seemed to be a complacent attitude which came home to roost when down to 10.

And Hoffenheim also put 4 past us last season as well. Not to mention we sacked our manager and then went on to win the European title off Liverpool!
After all that money Chelski have pumped on players I still think Porto will go through on away goal. Chelski won't risk being spanked and humiliated in the semis.
PSG will destroy Chelsea.
PSG /Bayern Munich will beat Chelsea if they reach the semi , If Liverpool fans think that they still have a chance why not the Porto team ? .
Munchen will beat Porto comfortable
MASON MOUNT gets my vote as 1st name on teamsheet simply because of his game attitude. wish he played for my team. that wazbak " robbie" wh only played for lower teams trys to ingratiate to all former old pals like lamps who "deserves great credit" for shaping the Chelswa team! Wot a load of tosh. Tom Tushel has made the team just like JK has done it a t Lpool. Lets have sum honesty from punnets!
Frank has to be given credit for bringing in the young players. They are keen and want to impress and have no baggage of big fees. How often have we seen academy players become disillusioned and move on. Not so sure Tuchel has made much difference, still not enough attacking goal action for my liking. Passing out from the back is still not working and a waste of nervous energy.
At least he is British ! Buy British - that’s why we left the EU. Away from the controlling EU bureaucrats . Close our borders once and for all. Keep COVID abroad .

Unlike the woke brigade most people are proud to wave the union flag. Don't disrespect people just because they have different opions to your own
God save the queen definitely ! Hope Liverpool beat RM .
Werner is perfect for next week. IF we can work on our passing from deep to release him and not play possession all the time. Look at how PSG got Mbappe his goals against Bayern tonight - that’s how we can see the best from Werner. The way we’re going we’ve learnt nothing from the Salah disaster and are well on course to history repeating.
Hope you enjoyed watching the Mighty Blues tonight and thanks for your input....

Mason Mount proving once again he’s the first name on the Chelsea and England teamsheet
See my post. a wonderful 2 footed player with skills to match, Poor goalie tho'. His pull back with his wrong foot ( OMG sik of punnets saying this!!) was very nice but not sensational, and is xpected by the better ball players. Goal was not sensational either just very good. hes paid to deliver and does regularly. So less rubbish talk robbie Shud also b captain of England. natural leader unlike
if the draw allows it I'd put good money on a Chelsea v City final. Liverpool's rubbishness flatters Real who haven't been this average since 2008-2010 era, PSG haven't really improved, they just benefitted from Bayern being slightly worse than last year.
Great result, solid but unspectacular display, Porto will be better next week & need to attack more. Terrific goal by Mount (can't understand why so many people have a downer on him or don't rate him), looking good for SF, hopefully see off RM, sorry Liverpool but you're not good enough to get through. Great night for the Blues.
That’ll do me at 2-0. Have to say though, Mount is now becoming a master of the turn. That was a worldy
After Foden
Great to see an English side on the up in Europe.
Tuchel seems to be doing something right at the moment too, well done Chelsea!

nope! Horrible and undeserved result(Scheisse und doppel scheisse!!).
Congratulations Chelsea on winning. The same to City last night and commiserations to Liverpool, can they make up a two goal deficit (a valuable away goal though).
It all feels so sterile with no fans and I'm wondering if this situation has registered with clubs who thought they could manage without supporters.
A better word for no fans is 'soulless'!

I only comment on Chelsea threads, trolling other clubs is not my style... Chelsea were very good tonight and deserved the win...
I am really looking forward to the Real Madrid encounter... Of course it goes without saying they have to finish the Porto tie first which is not a given... We'll see...

wot rubbish that word worldy is. Typical footy thicko language that the punnets use all the time. Ive seen so many players do that. Its quite common nowadays by the ball players. keep a level head. Mount is xcellent but dont get 2 xcited like robbie etc. none of them have a badge. They were gud players but not gud enuf to b a coach.
CFC ladies already in UCL semis!
Hoping for the men to follow!

Foden is good, but one dimensional. Mount is the more complete player
Like me I think most Chavski fans chose to watch the Munich v PSG game.
Great choice by all reports as this one appears to be the usual CFC snooze fest.

You must start watching Premier League,as you will see it every week.Vardy,Salah,Mane et al
Congratulations Chelsea. Let's hope for all the English clubs progressing after second leg.
Werner is being carried every game. Send him back... along with Kepa.
Bore fest at its best...same rabble and corrupt teams competing for a competition that’s 20 years past it’s sell by date
I would prefer only the winners from each league and a two legged knock out with out seeding . That will never happen as its all about the money honey !!!! . TBF i only watch the highlights when its at the qf stage and maybe the semi final and final if it looks like its going to be a good game .
I think that Chelsea are playing a negative brand of football similar to Jose Tottenham .

I`ve fancied Chelsea for the Champions League title all season. The players like Werner who are getting big stick will be brilliant next season. You need to adapt to our maniacal PL. Chelsea will win the Champions League. Really good team that can only get better,
Tuchel has more experience in Europe
He is new to the Prem and coming back from international break he had big Sam waiting for him
We all tend to forget that Pep had a tough first season in the Prem
I hope Chelsea do well in Europe
They are in with a chance

But if your comment is correct then we should have lost the second leg to athletico madrid because mount was suspended. But we won??

Massive. Lol.
A team barely holding onto 4th in the PL , who shipped 5 last week against a team that will be relegated vs one of the most expensive teams put together, who win their league every year without getting out of bed.
Yeah massive.

And maybe ANOTHER night of Euro Glory against Bayern to make all of England proud as been a long time since an English club won the ECL
Chelsea played very well,a real threat in CL.But once again Chelsea and Man City will have the money myth thrown at them.When infact 17 Premier League Clubs have billionaire owners.Its just that those 2 clubs have upset what was considered to be the "natural order" of things.Liverpool and Man Utd out spent everyone else for years.But things have changed and they don't like it.
Liverpool and MU outspent everybody for years using the money their success deservedly brought them.
Neither side had the benefit of a kickstart, or decade(+) of massive cash input from an oligarch or a sheik.
Compare the records/trophy hauls of Chelsea and MC pre- and post- golden ticket, and draw your own conclusion.
BM also doing it the LFC/MU way.
Don’t see why anyone could take issue?

Both fantastic clubs but LFC were in Div 2 for 5 years when Chelsea were champions and MU were relegated in the 70s as were Chelsea when the then board overspent on ground development, then had to sell our stars (that had just won us the FA cup against a terrific Leeds side and the following year winning the Euro Cup Winners Cup against Real Madrid). A golden ticket? I call it destiny.
Littlewoods FC bought success same as.
The 'top clubs' have always had top spend - current exceptions being Leicester & West Ham, but those tend to be flash in the pan only when the moneyed clubs stuff up.

Can anyone say Littlewoods Pools? How about worldwide merchandising on the back of tragedy? No criticism from me, that is how any professional /business/sport works. Good luck to everyone, so long as no one gets hurt.
