Well, when it comes to Ambrosini, you're seeing your own film.

Anyway, this board has been bashing Seedorf prior this match, but he's been excellent so far. Not much lost passes, great vision and precision. If only his shooting leaves space for improvement.

If we try to pressure them too much with a lot of players pushing out of their positions then they'll get into the space left behind. I'd rather it this way.

If we manage a 0-0 great, I'll take that. If we manage to nick one late on, than that's amazing. If we lose, f@ck it, we all thought this would happen

Tell me you weren't p!ssed off when he kept fouling at the edge of our area when they're just passing it around!

Yes I was mistaken as I thought he surely gave that yellow the way he went in like he usually does, 2 feet and as if he's flopping down a slip and slide at the local water fun park

Yes Seedorf has been good, but he just looks completely off the pace when he tries to even attempt a fas run. He won't last the full 90 that's for sure

Seedorf has been great,but I doubt he'll stay for long in the second half,he looked tired.

Yeah, our players act like Stonehenges. We're too static, we need to help our defenders and push more forward, this Barcelona defense isn't convincing at all...

I was. I do get you, he made a few mistakes, but so did Mexes, Binho, Ibra and a few others. Nothing lethal from the man so far.

To do that we'll have to play Emmanuelson as a fullback,and get Aquilani in.

Antonini has been good defensively. No reason to upset the balance of our defence.

I think best thing to do would be to bring Urby for Seedorf at the 60th and grind this thing out

How is that not a foul by Puyol?

Yes. We are trying to prevent their runs to the box and close it as much as possible. They can shoot from distance as much as they want but at the end of the half Abbiati made maybe two saves.

We just need to exploit chances we do have, you can't miss like that vs Barca.

I think all of the players that some maybe were worried about before the game have played well. Ambro, Seedorf, Antonini.

Can't we steel a freakin' corner off them?? come on punt it up. Do it ugly

If a Barca player went down like Robs did, it would be a foul. Gauranteed!

Btw, kurt are you watching on sky or itv? Can't find a stream but I really like G. Neville's commentary

no sky telecast onlyitv

Seedorf > Messi.

Why are our players slipping and sliding all over the pitch FFS??

Shouldn't our players be wearing the right boots and the slipping and sliding be done from the Barca players?

Robs off injured. Great

ITV have this game.

we need to stop this hollywood stuff

Meh

Not sure that was needed. Antonini looked like he had that.

nesta takes yellow for tactical foul

Ibra couldn't believe Ambro's perfect pass. Damn!!

+1 but then it was messi on the ball

Iniesta off

Tello on

At least that's one headache out of the way. Wonder why not Cesc...

That's the problem with a sub, you need a few touches to be fully warmed up.

robinho part 2 starts the same way as well

Prince off for Urby, he better not be injured again FFS!

Silly yellow from Ambro. If you're going to pick one up, you don't take it for kicking the ball away.

would not be surpurised if he is

HAHA

Xavi shouts for a yellow, ref gives it to Ambro

what a joke!!

Ambro didn't do anything, Antonini was the one with the pull back

seedorf please wakeup its not full time yet

OMG mesbah coming on for nesta

Mesbah for Nesta. I'm guessing Antonini to RB and Bonera to CB.

The game is opening up. This is where it will get tricky for us

The pitch is horrendous. No wonder all of Pato's injuries were there.

OMG!!!

NO!!!!

looks like another injury...

We won't have a defence left at this rate.

Ambro! What a block!

Pedro on, I hate that little f@cker he always scores in these types of games for them

Mesbah let Puyol run so close to scoring. We may as well be down to 10 men.

Suddenly living on the edge without Nesta, I'll be shocked if we don't conceed in the next 5 minutes

Wasting time already

Come on, punt it at Ibra!!

ANTONINI! WHAT A BLOCK!

Jesus christ Mesbah.

antoniniii wow

Mesbah is the biggest liability I've ever seen

mesbah nnot meant for UCL
