Tactically, Hiddink is probably the best manager in the world at the moment. They were spot on last night, only side not to concede at Camp Nou this season. 1-1 or even 2-1 defeat away, is generally considered better than 0-0, but Chelsea may well have been torn apart if they'd opened up and attacked.

Manc Ronnie, whats the point in playing like a first division side whose got a premiership side away in the fa cup, play for a replay, hope to do them on the break, snatch a goal. Is it me or aren't Chelsea supposed to be bigger/better than that. I know winning is everything, but to win you've got to score, an away goal makes it really hard for barca, not even trying for one makes you look like a small side, what was mourinho saying about smaller teams coming and parking the bus, exactly what chelsea did last night, no ambition, and who cares if your tactically astute if you didn't threaten the oppositions goal for the majority of the match.
so now they'll be at home and have to attack, which fingers crossed means that barca will get some time and space on the counter, knock a couple past cech and put to the sword the idea that you can win the european cup, by nullifying your opponents away and give 'em a good shellacking at home...

I don't understand the point you're trying to make... We played well or we were too defensive? I think we did a good job of containing them but we were lucky to get away with the 0-0... Barca tore us apart in the second half, they were passing it around for fun...
