Torn on this one. Half of me would want Chelsea to win so that Rafa can the Chavs. The other half would want a Benfica victory to upset the Chavs.

Just hoping for an entertaining game.

Hope it gets more entertaining than this!

I feel sorry for Benfica. They were leading their league and were unbeaten till Saturday. Then against Porto they concede a late goal and lose their unbeaten record and potentially the title.

looks like chelsea are getting out classed again.

this looks like the bayern game all over again. chelsea getting blitzed but will scrape it like last yr

Due to my location, I have quite a few friends that are life long Chelsea fans, quite a few have season tickets or attend regularly. Not ne has given me shit over our investment in anyway, mainly as I have known most of them getting on 30yrs or so. Most have been genuinely pleased of our recent success and I remember their woes of years gone by. So for me it is a no brainer, I want the English club to win, also for my mate's who support them, a few of which are enjoying their trip to Amsterdam, which I envy them for :-)

Come on Benfica

Definitely want the Chavs to win. I support all English teams in Europe (apart from Stretford).

they didnt deserve to win last yr and by the way its lookin not this yr either

Benfica have bossed the game but it's still 0-0. This is reminding me of the CL final last year.

Benfica look good. Let's sign all their players.

Benfica have bossed the game but it's still 0-0. Seems like a familiar scenario, I just can't put my finger on it.

Just fixed that for you Beefy ;-)

Yeah but they only finished 2nd in the Portuguese league behind Porto.

Saying that, I think they have only lost one league game all season and that was recently against Porto.

Look what happened the last time........Javi Garcia happened.

we already started last season with Javi Garcia!

This is tedious.

Flicking between this and the Scottish first/second division plays off in Gaelic.

Torres goal would not have looked out of place in the SFL 2.

Whoops! There we go again. One team gives everything, the other takes the rewards.

For someone who has been considered a joke player for the past two years Torres has won a CL medal, Won a European Championship medal, a golden boot winner, scored a winner in the semi finals of the CL and just scored in the Europa Cup final.

He gets a lot of unfair stick, mainly from his own fans.

Never seen a player injure himself hitting a penalty before.
