Chelsea v Napoli

I know they have played Extra Time in a very tough game and have Leicester on Sunday BUT next Wed will be suddenly a lot harder than we think. You cant underestimate what this win has done for there confidence. Our luck is terrible this year, we seem to play teams when there Confidence is sky high and United have had games when teams are at rock bottom hence Arsenal twice and Spurs on the back of a bad derby defeat, not to mention Chelsea as well.

Saying that I'm still confident of a win next week.

Anyone thinking tonight, how vulnerable that Napoli defence looked, why couldn't we exploit their weaknesses?

We absolutely polaxed them at the Etihad, pretty sure we hit the bar 3 times (Aguero, Toure and someone else?) and should have comfortably won that game. Even the game at there place they got a pretty jammy smash n grab goal and we really bossed the game for most of the night.

Got no time for Napoli, thought they were not very humbling in there celebrations after they beat us and there fans/owners are an absolute disgrace. There owner after our game

"If Mr Mansour would like to invest in Napoli he should invest as much as I did and maybe get a team to improve and grow," he said. "I just think he wanted a toy. He takes all the oil money and I think he has built the club for a personal whim. He says he doesn't want success immediately but if they don't win something quickly he could easily draw the curtains, go somewhere else and buy another toy."

De Laurentiis was once asked whether the top Premier League clubs, City included, may appeal to Marek Hamsik and Ezequiel Lavezzi. "If they want to go to England then in the end they're going to go," he said, "but they need to understand this: the English live badly, eat badly and their women do not wash. For them, a bidet is a mystery."
 
Some of them Chelsea players will be playing at weekend versus Leicester no doubt so after a long week of games they should be slighlty fatigued yet high on confidence if they beat Leicester as well.

I'm confident on beating them at the Etihad and don't want to be negative but if we don't win the league this season; lets at least not lose or draw at home, has anyone had a perfect home record in a season??

My guess is no. If we beat Chelsea next week, we'll break the record for most consecutive home wins.
 
If they get lucky with the draw they could go all the way,apart from Real,Barca and Bayern there aren't any other teams left that they couldn't beat. Harry wouldn't be best pleased if they went on and won it with Spurs finishing fourth.

It was a good game tonight,Drogba was class,Torres still looks like a striker afraid to score,or rather miss.

The commentators we had over here were talking about how he turned down the chance to take a penalty last week. I've no idea what they were talking about, but if that was indeed the case then it tells you absolutely everything you need to know about his mindset.

A striker who's scared of missing, is not going to score you any goals. It really is as simple as that.

There owner is the epitome of the greasy Italian
 
I only saw the last twenty minutes of extra time. Was the ref that favourable to Chelsea all night? He seemed a right homer

I hope Napoli absolutely hammer them. Will be interesting to see how Gary neville's opinion stands up, he seemed pretty sure that Napoli are poor and that Chelsea have a good chance of winning 4-0 tonight. I imagine Napoli are desperate to be as good as the teams who were in united's group.

Wasn't far wrong then was he ? (much as I detest the cnut)

Drogba dived and cheated all night and the ref fell for it every time too.
