Pool 4, Arse 2: Pool advances to CL semis. What a CL year! Facing elimination in the group stages, drawing hot Inter in the round of sixteen, going down on away goals in the 84th minute against Arsenal in today's match -- a season of hurdles overcome.

Next, Chelski. I'm dreading this, not just because the futbol will be mind-numbingly defensive, but because at some point the Blues just have to get lucky against us, right? And losing to those creeps (as opposed to classy Arsenal) would be extremely painful...
