Yeah, not real sure about that. I guess you could say that as winners of the CL, Chelsea do deserve it more than Spurs do for finishing 4th in the league.

That's now the second time that an English team has won the CL and not finished top-4 in the league that same year. Too bad they amended the rules last time with Liverpool, otherwise the EPL would have had 5 teams in CL next season.

Cech was absolutely brilliant.

I'd hate to be the guy who has to make that call. He may truly not be the best option going forward, but that team was dead in the water in late-February, and he lead them to both an FA Cup and Champions League title. It was like a night and day difference once he took over.

He was not letting anyone else get close to the middle of that celebration.

I guess Maradona was right after all, lol.


Well done Chelsea. Nice final. Way to go BPL. And hopefully some confidence boost going into th Euro.

Sorry spurs but yall don't deserve the CL.
Schweinsteiger is pretty clutch. Cech played great and Scweinsteiger isn't fully fit. If anyone deserves blame, it's Robben and Gomez.

I'll throw that back to you to tell me how they do deserve it. Finishing 4th? Really? Anything else "significant" they accomplished this season besides not losing bale and Modric, yet.

When you boil it all down, Chelsea is simply a better team than tottenham. And they did just win the European cup. Nuff said IMO.

Grats to Chelsea.

Ironically, the price of beer just doubled across the UK and Bavaria.
