otokx: Pep's bad tactics has caused us this game yet again. He got it all wrong especially with the substitutions.

ddippset: the irony is that some people are still mentioning uefa. was it uefa that asked terry to kick sanchez off the ball from behind? or was it uefa that asked fabregas to be brought down in the box? are soem people just too illiterate or were they just born stvpid?

Stealthy: Chelsea beat us fair and square. They were the better team over two legs, because football is as much about defending as it is attacking or passing (in our case). We scored only 2 goals and conceded 3 goals. We cannot begin to claim to have been the better team, whether Chelsea parked the bus or not.

Messi had a dreadful match. But this match showed what has plagued us this season:

1.) 3 at the back is not sensible against any world class team.

2.) We need to be able to shoot from outside the box. There were countless times when our players had the ball at the edge of the box, Chelsea didn't press because they weren't expecting a shot, and our boys did not shoot because they only know how to pass.

3.) We slowed the game to walking pace - perfect for the defending team to get back into position.

4.) We need reinforcements in defence. Interestingly, Chelsea scored not from set pieces, but from nice attacking plays that we would be proud of ourselves.

5.) Who takes out Cesc for Keita when you need to score?

At the end, we are not in the final because we have concentrated on racking up high possession stats, at the cost of scoring. I love Barcelona and I love our tiki-taka, but changes have to be made to the team. Sometimes, when I watch Dortmund or Arsenal attacking, I see an attacking pace that you rarely see with our team these days. We have become so Messi dependent that our other attackers simply won't shoot, but pass to Messi.

Pep has done a good job so far, but I hope he can learn from his huge mistakes this season. We were never consistently good this season. We had a long winning run, but you hardly felt at ease in many of those matches. We are not the force that we were and Pep needs to take the blame and make the necessary corrections.
