    Dude calm down, it's not that bad. It's not as if you guys went to Stamford Bridge, won 2 nil and then came back to Barcelona and gave away 3 away goals to a 10 man Chelsea team. That would have been worse.
    It's not that bad bro.

    It is when you add it to the Clasico final. The early loses and the Messi struggles that have cost them La Liga. There was so much instability building up this season with Pepe, the board and the finances that this was waiting to happen. All that's left now is losing the Copa del Rey.

    It's not that Barca lost to a 10 man Chelsea team, screwed up a penalty and conceded a goal vs. GOAT striker Torres.

    Now THAT would've been embarassing...oh wait...

    CHELSEA!!!

    Think both Real and Bayern would beat Chelsea on a mediocre day. Take into account that they're missing Terry and Meireles in the final and they are complete underdogs.

    OMG TORRES YOU MAGNIFICENT SON OF A BI**H.

    THE ENTIRE TEAM PLAYED THEIR HEARTS ON ON DEFENSE.

    ONE OF THE GREATEST UPSETS EVER

    Copa del Rey.. nice consolation... I guess.

    If Barca atleast won the Champions League they could have an argument of a somewhat successful season. This is utter failure.

    Are you for serious? :confused:

    You're acting like the Rockets has the entire Dream Team from the USA playing for them like Barthelona has Messi, Piqué, Iniesta, Puyol, almost the entire España team. :eek: No comparison, man. You EXPECT the Rockets to collapse like they're no all-stars, yo.

    Ramires (beautiful goal btw) and Ivanovic are also suspended.

    Can't wait for tomorrow's game. For once I have absolutely no clue who will win it, but Bayern's "german stoicness" is impressive.

    Barca isn't considered the dream team or (Heat); That would be Real Madrid. I would compare them to the Lakers. When they have everything clicking they are the best in the world but when there is a flaw in the machine they lose.

    Come on now. Some of y'all are acting like Barcelona were playing Brighton or Wigan. It's not like Chelsea don't have some of the World's top players in their side.
    Undoubtedly Barca is great but Chelsea aren't has-beens.
    They had a top class keeper that could handle Barca(unlike Arsenal last season) and top class strikers that could lead the forward line alone despite being a man down(Unlike Arsenal last season).
    They had a manager that got tactics right (Unlike Arsenal last season)
    Damn, I think I'm unintentionally going in on Arsenal. :grin:

    Well done Chelsea.
    Barca will be back with a vengeance, we should all remember that.

    I don't comfort Barca fans, the trophies are raining over them. They had like 13 or 14 trophies with Pep, no need to soften this day for them.

    Chelsea 50/50 to win it in my opinion now. Would rather play Bayern Munich than Real Madrid.
    And even with the suspensions Chelsea can still put out a decent team. They won't need as many defensive players anyway although losing Ivanovic and Terry is big.
    Cech
    Bosingwa Luiz Cahill Cole

    Essien Mikel Lampard

    Sturridge Drogba Mata (or even Torres for Sturridge)

    I wanna be so mad at Messi for missing the pk but how can I when he has giving me so so so much joy. I Definitely need a drink.

    Good luck to the remaining teams.
