Summary
Matt Davies-Adams has got The Athletic's Chelsea posse alongside him as Dom Fifield, Simon Johnson and Liam Twomey reflect on the stalemate and Elland Road.
We preview Wednesday's crucial Champions League second leg against Atlético Madrid with the help of Alvaro Romeo - and look ahead to what *should* be a favourable draw as the Blues host beleaguered Sheffield United in the quarterfinals of the FA Cup.
Plus, Katie Whyatt joins us to salute another extraordinary showing from Chelsea Women as Emma Hayes' side retain their Continental Cup title in emphatic style.
