Champions League and Europa League 20-22 February
Hard not to see a Barcelona win here. Hazard needs to turn up, and turn up big for Chelsea to be in with a shout.

I’d say Chelsea are more than in with a shout at home. Spanish dominance isn’t what it used to be and Messi is usually bang average whenever they play them. Intriguing without being exciting so far.
It’s odd to see the most European team of all playing the most english of formations. Still 70% plus possession mind.

23 minutes, and Messi has already made 3 or 4 incredible passes that if De Bruyne made, everyone would be waxing lyrical about. Amazing that this sort of thing is just normal for him.

Willians hit the post twice from outside the box!

Diving aside, Drogba was quality, worth it just for the number of times he ruined Arsenal. The old Chelsea defence was a lot better than the current crop too.

Worst types of divers are the ones who are physically big and strong, makes them look even more ridiculous. Shame Drogba had to be one of those, but quality all the same.

On a side note, Busquets has to be the most underrated player of this generation. Rarely mentioned in the discussion for best midfielder(s), but he really is up there. So intelligent.

Barcelona have had Mascherano and Toure sitting in that pivot but Busquets has sat there longer than both. Does the simple things consistently effectively so doesn't stand out as such.

Bayern Munich two up against ten man Besiktas. Honestly, this is the future of football. Big betting syndicates deciding over a football match. I regret watching it

Third time lucky from outside the box for Willian! Hope they keep this lead, would set up the second leg very nicely.

Good strike......but I don't think the Barca keeper likes diving to his left.
