Yeah, I seem to have blocked it from memory somehow. Probably will start creeping back in after the Euros have finished and the media hype cycle begins again.

Hope Chelsea go out to Apoel.
I was willing Chelsea on last night. Having an English team still in the comp is the only thing getting me up or keeping me up for the 3.45am kick-offs. I wouldn’t watch until the final if Chelsea went out last night.

Surprised Chinese TV went with the Madrid game last night, apparently they thought as it was 1-1, the game was more “Live” than the Chelsea tie. Ridiculous, though saying that CSKA should have been 2 zip up in the first 10 minutes. Chelsea could beat Real; I think if they don’t get Barca or Bayern, they could reach the semis. Napoli were awful, so naïve.

**** me, we should be on the end of a record hammering here. Dead set loving this Bilbao side - will be disappointed if they don't go on and win the whole thing.

Yep, wonderful side - watching this you wonder how they're only 7th in La Liga. If we were 4-0 down tonight I couldn't complain.
They're somethke 2 points off 3rd or something. Bielsla as a coach has some pretty out there ideas tactically - I think I'm right in saying Javi Martinez had barely played at centre half beforw this season, for example. The first couple of months were basically a write off as the team got used to their coach and his way of doing things.

Yeah that's true - there are a number of teams separated by very few points.

And yep, Martinez is a midfielder through and through - only got converted to centre-half this season, and I imagine he'll be playing midfield for Spain at the Euros.

It's scary to think that hardly any of this team are regulars in the national side.
