Jose Mourinho hardly ever loses at Stamford Bridge and this fact was proven again on Tuesday night when his Inter Milan side came, saw and conquered a Chelsea side who were reduced to ten men late on when Didier Drogba was sent off, but did the Ivorian have an ulterior motive for getting an early bath?
Well those funny guys at Studs Up believe there was another reason the prolific striker wanted to leave the game early and you would do well to CLICK HERE to see the comic sketch that explains all!
Still the exit from the Champions League may well work in Chelsea’s favour as it gives the west London side more time and energy to concentrate on their Premier League title push whilst direct rivals for the domestic crown Arsenal and Manchester United will have their minds on two big pieces of silverware.

It was the World Cup Final we all wanted to see. The stylish Brazilians versus the tactically astute Italians. It was a borefest from the kick-off to the final whistle. Then we had the penalties and even they were a disaster but when Roberto Baggio strolled up to take his penalty the world waited in anticipation and waited for the talented Italian to stroke the ball home and give Arrigo Sacchi’s men a faint chance of capturing the 1994 World Cup. Unfortunately Baggio decided to attempt to put away the perfect penalty only to see his effort go sailing over the bar and finally we could all switch off the tv after the worst World Cup Final in the history of the world.
Real Madrid were knocked out by Lyon after Miralem Pjanic scored a crucial goal for the French side to level Cristiano Ronaldo’s early opener but the Bernabeu outfit were unable to add more to their tally and were left with a mountain to climb.
