Fuming, defending was pathetic for both goals (for the 2nd what the hell was that from JT?) We had a great performance, but I admit that a draw was a fair result

Dissapointing result considering we had a 2 point lead. Defense just kept getting sloppier as the match went on.

I will admit I was a bit surprised when I saw Oscar in place of Mata, but I guess it worked well, haha.

Juve are pretty much the toughest this group is going to get though, so I expect positive results from here on out.

Oscar's 2nd goal was pure class, couldn't believe my eyes. Mata disappointed me with that shot, knew was gonna be costly and Torres was unmarked, could have passed it to him and ended the game

well thats what you get for parking the bus at only 2 nill up. You shouldn't of switched to the chelsea default 9-1-0 formation so quickly, it worked last year but luck wont carry you this year

You must be really thick in the head if you call what we did in the 2nd half "parking the bus"

Like to hear Di Matteo and his "It doesn't take luck to win the champions".

They rode momentum ever since the napoli match, lets see how chelsea actually fare this year. I have full expectation that they will make it out of their group but how long will they last?

I highly doubt it was just "luck" that got Chelsea through the next 5 games after Napoli (2x benefica, 2x Barcelona, and Bayern final). Yes, luck played a role, but so did great defending, a solid counter-attack, and the big man, Drogba.

Cuz questionable calls, didn't pepper around here and there during any of the chelsea matches. Anyways, you guys won, so that is that.

However, my beef is with this season, lets see if Chelsea can get far again. In my opinion it just won't happen, I think they'll get past the group stages and maybe even up to the quater-finals and even then I'm being a little too nice.

The reason for this is that the season is long and we'll see how long those old legs will last.

Old legs? Did you forget we signed Hazard, Oscar, Marin and we have Mata, Ramires, Luiz, Mikel who are under 26

John Terry-31
Ashley Cole-31
Paulo Ferreira-33
Lampard-34
Malouda-32

Thats not counting those over 26, I didn't know over 26 is considered OLD, but since you made the case here are your players over 26

Ivanovic- 28
Torres- 28

Maybe terry can get some rest, by getting silly red cards through the competition, that might save his legs till the final, if he is even allowed to play that is.

@Krazy

Terry not playing in the final and not having to take a penalty is why Chelsea won the final.

Obviously we're not favorites to repeat as winners of the CL but to say that we'd be lucky to make it to the quarters?

Give me a break.

I'm not surprised by the result, but other than the next game against Juve, Chelsea should do fine in this group.

Nice to see Juve back in the Champions League. Great game, fair result. Oscars second was class. I expect Juve and Chelsea will get out of the group.

Juve should've won 2-0, and this was actually one of the worst performances I've seen by Juve within the last year or so. They usually move the ball up field a lot more, they seemed to play around with the ball too much in the midfield.

Where have I heard this before? Oh yeah, pretty much all last year.

"Chelsea will lose the next game, that's for sure". -goes on to win Champions Leauge-

When we win, it's luck. When we lose, we suck. That's pretty much the mentality I see here from you guys...

Amazing, after what we did last year, after we defied all the odds, after we did the impossible, some guys say we would be lucky to make it to the quarter finals. I really wonder how some people think..

Not a Chelsea fan, but don't listen to these idiots.. Chelsea completely outplayed Juve.. but the score stands so well dont Juve i guess.

The teams starting to gel better, Oscar is lookin good.. and Hazard. These buffoons above are throwin in their 2 cents of mindless dribble.

"Juve should have won 2-0" yea? y's that exactly? another moronic comment.. just be quiet

Finally some sense! In my opinion, we played great and neutralised Juventus for most of the game, sadly we lost our focus in the last 10 mins. The 2 goals we scored were coming and completely deserved, Juventus played well too but we had the game under our control for the majority of the 2nd half, a draw is a fair result but leaves a bitter taste on your mouth after a great performance.
