I think we got a good chance at winning, actually. Arse are beginning to show signs of fatigue (very apparent in the Manu game on Saturday), and Chelsea is in good form. I hope Parker starts tomorrow - he was outstanding against Tots.
 
This is probably your best chance at beating us in all the ties we've had.
With the loss against United, the two long injuries it gave, and recent 'ordinary' form - it'll be a great test of Arsenal's strength.

All I can hope for is for us to forget about the FA Cup defeat, (and more so who we lost to), forget about the upcoming hectic schedule and just concentrate on beating/not losing to you.

It sounds like a very good game anyway, Arsenal aren't going to settle for an away goals 0-0 win and Chelsea will, of course fight it out.

Wenger has already said he's looking for 1 goal cause that would pile the pressure on Chelsea (as long as it makes it 1-0 to us anyway!!!)
 
I don't think there is any pressure on us at all tonight. Everyone expects an Arsenal victory. We're going to give it a go of course, but we're not expected to win. You've already lost one bit of silverware. You wouldn't want to lose another. So i would say the pressure is on Arsenal.
 
I also think that this is the big one for Chelsea, in this one they can beat Arsenal...
They will have to do better than in the home leg...that Pires goal was a defensive cock up...
If Chelsea could eliminate Arsenal, that would be a huge blow for them...somehow, i also think that tonight could be decisive for the Premiership.
If Chelsea could eliminate Arsenal, then a similar scenario as last year is possible...that Arsenal loose everything in a couple of weeks...they were brilliant all season, but again they show weakness in the one period it really matters...
Could be a thriller...as a neutral football fan i would like to see an early Chelsea goal...
Good luck to Chelsea...
 
Same here, although a 1-1 result at full time feels very probable to me. Of course, penalties would mean an Arse victory, considering their usual luck.

Yeh, Hasselbaink commented on their luck too.

Hasselbaink seems to comment on everything these days. If I was a Chelsea fan i'd tell him to shut the fuck up cause he shouts his mouth off before every game we play and nothing he says ever comes true.

I don't think anyone at home will be channel hopping during this one. Watching the champions league review last night a lot of Europe is eagerly awaiting this leg.

I'm sure our european members can comment on this.

Most of the people at Highbury wont though and that's all that counts! ;)
 
America stands with Chelsea!

As our President said, ". . .you're either with Chelsea. . . or you're with the terrorists. . "

Something like that.

Good luck to both teams. I'm heading over to a bar for a 2 hour lunch today! hehe.

You bet hope it doesn't go to extra time then. If it does you'll have to hope someone scores a silver goal or you'll miss some of the game.

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh How sweet? how Sweet? uh huh! That's gotta hurt! Surely! Beating Arsenal? at Highbury? in a Champions League Quarter Final?


Victory is that much sweeter when it is timed to perfection!
