Agree absolutely. Looking down the team lists Chelsea's team was undeniably full strength apart from Drogba who came on second half. It's funny to be honest, a cheap assembled not-full strength squad with key absentees (Burke, Zigic etc.) outplaying a massive club worth millions. Chelsea haven't been right for ages and I think we can really go for it at St Andrews.

What were Chelsea charging you lot a ticket btw?
We have done well away from home in the cups, we really do look very hard to beat, even at Braga I thought we were the better team.
Chelsea still favs for the replay but at least we know CH will have a go. If Zigic is fit, then I think we have a chance.
Well its gonna be tough either way.
But if Chelsea mess up against Napoli, then the FA Cup is going to be the only thing they may Win this season.
Chelsea may be better trying to put as much effort into the FA Cup anyway as they will not Win the Prem this season, and they have a long way to go to get to the Champions League Finals.
So i guess it also depends on how they do in their games up to our game as surely another thing on the minds of Chelsea would be winning League Games as failing to get Champions League for Chelsea next season would be a major failure.
I think we came close as Redmond had more time and a more experienced player would have tested the keeper or scored.
But in such a massive game, in such a massive moment nerves could have got the better of the lad and i guess in time his composure will improve greatly.
