Awful game but a very good result. Would have taken that before KO all day long.

Wow Chelsea was really awful tonight.. but they got a good result.

Yeah, a pretty boring game in the end. What was supposed to be the cherry of the round :facepalm:

PSG didn't get Zlatan involved enough and no one else looked like creating something. Chelsea were a bit too happy to play for the draw, but no surprise there. A good result for them.

by Bankz Tue Feb 17, 2015 10:46 pm

Hazard was the best player on the pitch tonight, he was 5 levels above everyone else - Gil.

Courtois kept the second half from getting ugly for Chelsea.

Some of the saves he made today were unreal. Man of the match.

This kid is so freaking good.

Very impressed with Veratti, he's improved a lot in the areas I criticised him for last year.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue Feb 17, 2015 10:50 pm

Most of the Courtois saves were saves you would expect a goal keeper of CL quality to make. None were particularly mindblowing.

Even the last Ibra one was quite comfortable in reality due to Ibra heading it down for it to bounce to a comfortable height. If Ibra heads it low but not down not a chance he saves it.

Inb4 I'm hating.

I thought Zlatan had some great looks he just got Courtois'd. I mean he's not going to get much better looks against a Mou coached Chelsea side in 2 legged tie especially the first leg being on the road for Chelsea.

He should have scored at least one of his chances, again it's not going to get much better than he got tonight.

Verratti MOM along with Courtois. Chelsea were pathetic. I don't remember a dangerous shot from them

Only watched the second half but yeah it was decent imo.

Pathetic?

They were OK. Professional performance imo.

by Tomwin Lannister Tue Feb 17, 2015 10:54 pm

I know Chelsea play boring, yet effective football but ffs jesus this was just boring. Period. Making slow as *bleep* simple half assed passes then giving up and getting back in numbers. Why would you take a team of that quality and have them play like Sunderland

1 vs 1 against Ibra with a good angle and Ibra having time on the ball is generally a goal.

There were others as well but that one pretty much kept the second hal;f from getting out of control as PSG were on the front foot looking for blood

by Bankz Tue Feb 17, 2015 10:57 pm

hazard would never score in any decent game, even if his salvation depended upon it..

i bet big money on a win for PSG :coffee:

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue Feb 17, 2015 10:58 pm

That was a poor finish from Ibra, it was very close to Courtois. Pretty much every GK of an elite club saves that, If they don't then they deserve to criticism.

by CBarca Tue Feb 17, 2015 10:58 pm

Veratti was great. I don't get to watch him much but I'm always impressed when I watch him. Thought he was MOM

One player I would absolutely love for Barca to continuously pursue over the next couple years is Veratti. Come home Veratti, you have Barca DNA Proud

by Dnmac4 Tue Feb 17, 2015 11:02 pm

Uh not so much.

Maybe you haven't seen some elite clubs keepers in recent times. Either way it's a world class save his positioning was flawless and he made himself big and basically saved the game for Chelsea.

I think PSG had like 5 straight corners in a row right around that time the game was going to get out of hand in a hurry.
