"Internazionale must improve on recent performances to have any chance of beating Chelsea in the Champions League last 16, according to José Mourinho."

"The Argentina striker Diego Milito gave the Serie A leaders a 1-0 advantage in their Italian Cup semi-final first leg against Fiorentina at San Siro yesterday. But the Inter coach said they would have to buck up their ideas with the Champions League first knockout round first leg at home to the London club looming on 24 February."

Yes. Plus they are in great form, far and away the best team in Italy and Mourinho knows the Chelsea team inside out.
However, Inter in the last 3 or 4 years have really not performed in Europe as demonstrated against Liverpool 2008 or Utd 2009.
My money is on Chelsea but I would not be surprised by Inter.
Ok, I am a HARDCORE INTERISTA and this is my honest opinion. I seriously think we can beat Chelsea IF we play like we did against Milan (in the 2-0 victory) especially if we played like our first 18 minutes in that game! Inter were sublime, everyone hs to admit that. We play attacking footbal to the maximum, crisp 1 touch passes, perfect link up plays, confidence and finishes. However, if we play like we did against Fiorentina...I don't know what will happen. But...I think we should be abale to play like we didn against Milan. The most important thing is not to let Chelsea get the ball, keep posssession and dont let them use their physical strength. I think Mou may start Mariga as Mariga is beast...like a mini Julio Baptista in strength so he could help us. Plus, IMA PRAYING TO GOD we dont ANY injuries.....ESPECIALLY 2 SNEIJDER, Milito and Pandev! I think at the San Siro the score will be 1-0 or 2-0 for Inter. Then If we contunue playing the same way, we would get a draw at Stamford Bridge and go through. As long as we win and don't concede at home, I think we'll go through....BUT WE HAVE TO PLAY FLOWING ATTTTTACKING FOOTBALL!!! Plus, it also Mou knows Chelsea very well...but they have cahnged a bit.
FORZA INTER!!!
Inter are good enough to pull a victory in one game. But the Champions league is a 2 legged game. Chelsea are too strong to loose in a 2 legged tie. Whatever happens in the first leg, Chelsea have enough strength to win the tie.
no inter only seem good because they are playing in a poor league. i feel chelsea will beat them in both the first and 2nd leg!
Inter is going to win aginst chelsea because they have a very good coach rite.
inter could never beat chelsea!
BUT they have got a really good manager!
chelsea will win though because they r 2 gd for inter!!!
Of course they can this two teams are evenly matched it just depends on which of this two teams take their chances over the two legs.
chelsea will batter inter
No. Chelsea are far superior.
not a chance not mentally strong enough to succeed
