Fingers crossed for Chelsea to turn things around tomorrow evening and progress into the semi-finals.
This is the thread in which to talk about all aspects of the match.

Possibly 3-1, followed by extra time.
Why would it?
I thought we established last week that you didn't understand the meaning of irony.
Please don't. I don't want that bloody song stuck in my head.
Ah, too late...

Fixed.
Much, much better.
I think it will be something like the same score line again in PSG's favour, as Chelsea have to start on the front foot, that third goal is a killer really (from the first leg), as that puts soo much pressure on Chelsea to have to really go at PSG almost from the get go.
3-2 PSG.
Of course they do, all 3 of Chelseas are a threat, they may not be top tier strikers but they are all more than capable of scoring a goal or 2 against PSG.
People really do swallow the junk that Mourinho comes out with.
That's true. They might not be consistent but they're capable of scoring against any opposition on their day. Eto'o has already scored several goals against the big PL teams at home this season. Torres has scored against Man City and Bayern (in the Super Cup) too. Anything's possible.
You make it sound like they have Grant Holt, Danny Graham and Cameron Jerome as their striking options.
Seriously, any of their strikers are capable of nicking a goal or two, particularly Eto'o.
I don't buy this either. A 2-0 win would be enough, we can afford to be more patient than that.
No, we don't need to throw everything at them from the start, but we do need to get that first goal to sow the seeds of doubt in their minds. I would be very confident going into this game if the score line was reversed.
Now lets not mention Grant Holt! ;-)
I just don't particulary rate Chelsea's striking options, and seeing as Eto'o has been out of action for a while, it will take him time to get back up to proper match fitness, which might be too long for Chelsea.
Yes, they could still go through (Chelsea), I just don't think that they will that is all, good luck to them though, it would be nice for England, and the co-efficient, if they did make it through.
That is true about the 2-0, but that might be harder to ge than just saying so, but I can see where you are coming from, so no worries there.
Can we get any of those in before kick off?
I do understand what you are saying (and can see us doing it) but at the same time there is no point of glossing over things, With the options available to us and PSG playing with a mentality of this being a Champions League final even a fully fit Eto'o at his best its going to be bloody tall order and I would rahter we put that effort into the League and ensuring we get second place
In all honesty, I don't see you getting through.
However, I think that anyone writing you off is being hugely premature. Yes, PSG are an excellent side and the first leg score wasn't great, but an early Chelsea goal and it's 'game on', in my opinion.
It was established 2 months ago.
Because he's a £50m flop!?!?
