Will we reach the cup final?

[Quicksilvera]

A gauge to see who thinks we will/won’t, I personally don’t think we will but I can but hope!

 

[Priv]

I really hope we do but I expect Chelsea will do enough. No way Palmer will be as bad at finishing in the second leg.

Same here, even if we were 2-0 up I still wouldn’t be confident.

It would be some achievement.

 

[Kepler442b]

I hope so and it's far from impossible, but I don't feel that the odds are in our favour.

 

[Capybara]

No. We are already out of the cup.

 

[BoroPhil]

I kind of think we will now. I didn't straight after the first leg but I really think if we frustrate them for the first 20-30 mins we could do it. We will probably have to score though.

What?

[Diego]

I think we can do it

 

[Colgates_shaving_foam]

We've got more chance than we did before the 1st leg. I'll take that.

I think we will score so could see it going to extra time/pens, we have a good record in pens.

I am going for boro win on pens.

 

[Rauko]

Will need a lot of luck and probably a goal at some point ..

 

[breakthewallsdown]

Probably not but it doesn't take away how special Tuesday night was

 

[Jedi boro]

If we can get a goal I think we’ll win.

 

[Boro4life]

Like all games the first goal be crucial if we get it and go 2 up the Chelsea players will start to panic

 

[Alwaysaborolad]

Head says no
Heart says yes

 

[exeterboro]

Don't have a clue, I like to think I'm good at predicting periods of seasons or outcomes over a season, but individual matches I'm bloody useless at. What I will say is I be more happy if LL and JC were fit for it. I love us to play at pace against them, we know they are going to do it against us, let's see how they cope with it back against them, and two proper goalscorers amongst that play LL and Forss.

 

[Davey_C]

After Peterborough threw away a 4-0 1st leg advantage that just proved to me any lead you take into a second leg sometimes isnt enough. We need to nick a goal and not set up a team for a 0-0 otherwise we'll get battered

 

[S7DiscoDown]

The most important thing is that we are very much in with a chance. I mean I'd have been over the moon with a draw. That would have set us up for a smash and grab in the 2nd leg.

So the fact we are effectively 1-0 up at HT is fantastic and gives us a real chance. I watched them yesterday against Fulham and they really struggle to break teams down. Also when they do the finishing has been poor all season.

It will take a monumental effort. Especially defensively. Yet in Jones / Rogers we have pace and a fluid front line that looks good on the counter. So the more they get frustrated and crowd pressure will make them vunrable to leaving open spaces. We look class on the counter under Carrick. Ideal game for Lath if we get him fit.

We only need a draw. You'd take that going into the match

 

[Juninhoburger]

Voted yes because there's no reason why we can't beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. This set of players doesn't seem like sort who would be overawed by such an occasion and if Chelsea start poorly I think the home fans will turn on them big style.

 

[Heam44]

Yes, 1-1.
