'Knife-edge' is the term that defines Chelsea's Champions League campaign this season. The team seems to be on a mission to do things the hard way. Good entertainment value, but not for the weak of heart (Then again, I doubt any Chelsea fan has a weak heart after what's happened to us in Europe in the last few years) After losing to Leverkusen in the penultimate game of the group stage, Chelsea needed to beat Valencia, a strong Valencia, to be sure of progressing to the knockouts. Beat them they did, and how. Not the close game that was expected but a big win, a 3-0 scoreline. Qualification from the group stage was achieved on a knife- edge.


 Taking the lead at Naples only to gift Napoli goals and lose 3-1, Chelsea's big names turned on the heat at Stamford Bridge to produce a most extraordinary 4-1 win after extra time.The same faces, that couldn't have looked more forlorn after Ezequiel Lavezzi's sealer in Naples, couldn't have looked more joyful after Ivanovic's emphatic winner. Progression from the Round of 16 was achieved on a knife-edge. That result came in the midst of a run of wins that put real wind in Chelsea's sails for the first time this year. Roberto di Matteo had helped the team turn the corner and (for now, anyway) saved the season.
