So, where are all these Spaniardo's who reckoned Barca would demolish all before them?

Put a very good side against them who can also defend and they struggle.

Yes, they still could go to Chelsea and win or get a score draw, but I didn't see anything of Messi and his team that would make Chelsea quiver in their boots. I think Hiddink will be quietly confident after last night's showing.

Messi was so dissappointing it was untrue.

Chelsea went there to defend and did it perfectly, and should've won the game, good goalkeeping from Valdez but Drogba really should've scored. I can't see past the Champions League returning to England this season based on last night's game.

I only saw the first half (didn't bother with the second - bored) and Barcelona looked nervous.

It was the sort of game I thought Liverpool - Chelsea was going to be.

Exactly.

It was like a game of attack vs defence for Barcelona last night.

Chelsea were cack. I bet if it had been Liverpool, Man Utd or Arsenal they'd have had a go at Barcelona. How I will laugh if Barca stuff Chelsea on Tuesday.

They kept the best attack force in Europe quiet. They kept Messi in their back pockets. They did a fooking good job, something that in 50odd games this season not many other teams have managed to do.

At Stamford Bridge I see no reason why Chelsea cannot beat Barca. If they keep the front three quiet again, they've got every chance to get to Rome.
