Englands Big Guns Exit Champions League

It was another big mid week disappointment for two of Englands bigger sides as Manchester United and Chelsea both exited the Champions League last night.

Chelsea were expected to scrape through their group after looking comfortable for most of the tournament, until a loss to Juventus allowed the Turin side to leap frog Chelsea into 2nd place and it stayed that way after last nights final games.

Manchester United were always up against it after struggling for much of the group phase. Needing to win their final two games to have any chance - they promptly failed on both counts and were eliminated out of the tournament.

The exit will put pressure on JM once again to hold on to his position, after a less than impressive season so far in the Premier League has seen fans calling for his sacking for several weeks.
Torres again failed to fire for Chelsea

To be fair SB at Chelsea is not doing too much better. After an early exit in the FA Cup and now a group stage exit in the Champions League - things are not so rosey in London all of a sudden.
