Why not give credit to Chelsea on getting through to the final something we will never achieve.

Probably better if I don't offer an opinion on this! 

What I do find interesting is the demise of the two Spanish giants with both needing to rebuild their squads.

At least we have something in common with them then!

If FFP didn't exist we'd be in with more of a chance.

Thought we too had a rich owner a while back? Agree that the elite teams in the PL have bought their way to success, but we did have a chance to spend enough to secure our place in the PL, hands tied now....apparently?

Fair comment Dave. Credit where credit is due. Wish it was us.

Yep, a really good performance. Chelsea are solid all over the pitch. So tight at the back but break so fast. Wouldn't bet against them in the final.

Could/should have been 4 or 5-0 tonight.

Just need those pesky Bees to win the play-offs & my misery is complete.

Very good performance from them and happy they beat Real Madrid. They have a very exciting squad, laced with young talent and energy. I enjoy watching the game at a very high level, and Chelsea did just that tonight, particularly in their defensive shape and intensity. They will do well to beat Man City, but they have a chance.

To those that hate Chelsea, fair enough, but I just don't feel much of a rivalry with them. Maybe when we can match them it will be different, but much like with QPR (the opposite way) the levels are just too different to feel real rivalry.

I agree and waste of anger, why feel bitter over Chelsea or Brentford's success, that is for the school playground.

Turkey is in full lockdown & they want to send 4,000 fans from each club?

Agree with you.  In fact, I don't think I've met a Chelsea who has shown animosity towards us and my Chelsea mates often look out for Fulham.  It would feel odd to feel one sided rivalry in return.

Well my cousin posted 'West London is blue' the other day on bookface.  There are plenty that dislike us.

It's daft isn't it, Surely it will make sense to have the game at Wembley...or Craven Cottage... Instead.

Stupid if they play it in Turkey now.

Before kick off they had an aerial view of London from above Stamford Bridge and you could clearly see the floodlights on our new stand , looked stunning 😍

They played well today and I like their new manager, amazing how quickly he turned it around

Hope they can beat the money Manc's

Shows how well we did against them then.

This is the point for me. We could well have beaten them and, on balance of play, I'd say that we should have.

Well done Chelsea is what I think. They were better than Madrid over the 2 legs and deserve to get to the final.
