CFC won 3 European trophies before the year 2000! CFC won a European trophy before lfc won anything in Europe! Fact
But unfortunately not Mr.Big Ears himself.
In fact it took Chelsea so long to eventually win a Champions League that Liverpool had already won it 5 times and had been allowed to keep it forever.
As a result the 2012 version was made of silver painted plastic specially for a club like Chelsea.
With special instructions on base-"Avoid handling and DO NOT POLISH"

Just image what Chelsea could have achieved if they didn't have Roman Armbandovic?

Chelsea have been voted English team of the decade (2011-2021) by the International Federation of football history and statistics which kind of makes the earlier comment of a certain troll poster look a tad silly ??
As a Liverpool fan I must say that If Manchester city and Chelsea manage to make the final that would be an extra diamond in the PL crown, the two leading clubs in the PL leading in Europe as well.

No way would UEFA want Man City v Chelsea in the Final-
[El-Plastico] -
Citeh for obvious reasons but also it would send a mixed message if Chelsea scraped in after their Two window transfer ban..
(PSG)/Munich v Liverpool/(Real Madrid) is the Final that would best please UEFA & the Football fraternity.

As a Liverpool fan it would be marvelous to see Chelsea and Manchester city in the final.
Uefa officials will be looking forward to meeting both clubs representatives in the final.

As a fellow Liverpool fan I must say that your comment is very selective in who UEFA and the footballing fraternity look favourably on especially after PSG and our very own club have been investigated for financial irregularities.
Do you agree!

Great win in the end for Chelsea, though Porto should have had a goal. Second leg for Chelsea and unless they go full Spurs(sorry but your collapses are too common), they should be in the Semis, likely against Real Madrid.
Well played Blues, and please play like that as well during the week-end!

Though it's HARDLY a foregone conclusion, it would be a testament to the quality of the EPL if the UCL Final was Chelsea v. Man City and the UEL Final was Man United v. Arsenal.
As a Liverpool fan I have to say What a fantastic result for Chelsea if only the team I support could have put in some effort, but they didn't and they lost 3-1.
Chelsea and Real madrid will go through now. Well done to both teams.

It makes me laugh reading all these comments about Lampard. He was a great player for Chelsea but the rot had set in as a manager and he had to go.
All this loyalty to Lampard when the only thing football people are loyal too is their bank account. Lampard loved Chelsea so much when he signed his last big contract as a player he openly said if he didn't get his £150,000 a week he would leave.

Absolutely. Unless you go back in history when players like Ron Harris earned £300 a week. There maybe the odd exception when a player is prepared to take less to stay at a certain club but they are an exception.
Professional players and managers are some of the greediest people in the world.

Great result. If the big mouths on The Shed Blog had their way Chelsea would still have Lampard and Morris in the dug out and trying to get John Terry on board, and be mid table , out of the CL and FA Cup, going nowhere. Well done Roman Abramovich never lets his emotions run his mind !

I know you bang this drum on every HYS but didn't Chelsea have three English players in the starting 11 yesterday 2 of which scored?
For crying out loud Tuchel, leave Werner out of the team. The guy is shot to pieces. You do not re-establish confidence by continuing to play him. That is evidently not working, and the pressure to deliver is obviously too much for him. Give him a spell in the reserves, give him time to build back his confidence. He is a luxury we just cannot afford at the moment.
Really.... Threats?
We have never threatened anyone at our club. All our players past and present will 'never walk alone.'
Unlike Jose who was hunted out of the club in his second stint by the Blue boys. All the players and fans down tools and resorted to hounding him out. He received 100's of hounding letters.

Good win for Chelsea tonight. Yeah, they had the easiest draw out of the three English teams, and they did get beaten 5-2 at home to an Allardyce-managed, 19th-placed West Brom...
But it was a good win nonetheless.
But it was a good win nonetheless.
I think the contrast in results was down to the starting 11, which is probably close to our best with the exception of Kante and Pulisic. I feel Jorghino might be replaced by Rice next season to solidify that deep lying area. Chelsea selling Bakayoko, Tomori, Barkley, Emerson and probably Jorghino will easily be able to afford him with change and have Abraham to offer on top.
Look’s like Bayern v Real final then, PSG won’t out-score Bayern again even at home
I dont think so, Chelsea are set up to challenge and win. If we were Arsenal we would have stuck with Frank, not invested in the squad and been happy with a top 4 fight and a cup run. Roman will back his manager again, we will probably sign 3 top players and the aim will be the title, as you say, time will tell

How about explaining where Roman your apparent Russian Owner comes from. He was in fact born outside the province lines of The Former USSR Soviet state. Whereby he isn't recognised as Russian. Nor does he hold citizenship of Russia.

Obviously Chelsea are through and it’s absolutely essential for football that Real Madrid also win.
Dortmund were perhaps more dangerous than expected. Their motivation was a level up from recent league performances, so who knows. Same with PSG / Bayern. Anything can happen.

As a Liverpool fan I have to say that it's going to be, by the look of it, that Chelsea and Real will be in the semi finals.
The other 2 matches are too close to call but I would prefer City and PSG to progress.
Liverpool just are not good enough to overcome Real Madrid no matter how much other liverpool fans say it just will not happen this season. Removed

Just want to be sure to add before comments close Mendy has been a fantastic purchase. Not a huge amount said about him, but an excellent player.
And TT has got their heads in a great place. On the day they could beat any team...(except West Brom).

Chelsea since Roman arrived - traded at a loss. Serious loss. By all accounts CFC over spent. Being a profitable business is not Chelsea. They've not made any profit at the club since 1998. That's the last year they made sensible profit.
Everything they make is just catch up money. They also have a financial burden of £+000's million wastage on Youth Players signed long term contracts & released.

Lampard was persisting with Werner. They all see something in him. I have to say, as much as I don't want to see him selected, I do admire his attitude - he will run and chase and harry better than anyone, but his game is to score goals, doh! I did feel especially sorry for him last night when he trod on the ball and lost possession.
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.
The difference is that Chelsea pre Roman were winning domestic cups regularly finishing in the top 4 and competing in the Champions League
