Back to reality. Can see a similar line up to the Arsenal game, i hope so anyway.

Yeah very true, this really is the cup final for Ivanovic, JT, Meireles, Ramires. So many players will be up for this game, also huge for Sturridge and Torres i'd say because i don't think they'll start in Munich. Thinking about the players who will miss the UCL final i'm actually proper hyped now putting it into perspective. It's probably also some of the players last chance to play for us so they'll wanna end with a bang. Can see a real focused, but party atmosphere, the perfect build up to the biggest game in our history. Winning a double would be amazing. Hope JT lifts the FA Cup and Lamps lifts the UCL Trophy.

Almost forgot we were in the FA Cup final. Wow err i dunno, 5-0. Don't care, we got bigger fish to fry.

Gotta take the chance, we can't let ourselves be tired and Bayern to be fresh. 1 game, all or nothing.

That is what you call revenge.

JT suffers for years and years in the UCL then Cahill comes in and gets to a final within 3 months. He must be wondering what all the fuss is about.

If anyone deserves to captain us to European glory and lift the trophy, it's Frank Lampard.

Apparently Van Buyten has no chance, he broke his foot and is a long way away. Was chatting to a Bayern fan just now. He believes Badstuber is a big loss to them like Terry for us.

I personally agree with you but we all know that won't happen although against QPR we should be able to rest some key men. We should take a chance and rest players for league games. We have 2 cup finals, win them and our mission is more than complete.

Football is just simply a crazy sport. Sometimes it's too predictable but sometimes it's unbelievably unpredictable. This UCL campaign has been nothing short of madness. Great final tho, just a shame it's in Munich.

This shit is just too unpredictable, it's insane and quite frankly fucking madness. Bayern knock out Madrid from 2-0 down, we knock out Barca from 2-0 down. We ruin UEFA's dream final, Bayern get a home final, it's a crazy, crazy, crazy, CRAZY season. We have a big chance but they can rest all their players now, they will be really fresh and they will be at home so they are still favourites. This is the final we wanted tho. What was Jose saying? Chelsea have no chance... who's in the final Jose, who's in the final? EXACTLY!

If we win the CL i'll donate £100 to the forum.

He's hit the Bar against us, hit the post and missed a penalty. On the other hand i think Ronaldo played against us more and only scored in the UCL final with a header. It's good to know that the best players of today can't score easily against us.

Should rename this the European Cups thread, it's quite a confusing title. By the way the first thread is actually back working now but has had 3 years taken away, what is that all about? lol anyway we're in the UCL final and soon Real Madrid will join us. Here is the last time we met, i think it's the full match. 1998 European Super Cup. And The Cup Winners' Cup from 1971

I shat myself when Torres went through because i was so sure he was gonna fuck it up and run the ball right into Valdes' hands or miss like he did at old trafford but me and my brother both went mental when he put it in. We knew that it was over when he rolled it in. If this doesn't kick start Nando's Chelsea career, nothing will.

I love anti football, anti football til i die baby.

Well yeah it all depends on who we get and who's available for them. I'm thinking tho that we'll get a full strength Madrid team who have more stars than anyone so we'll have to soak up pressure and hope to counter well when given the chance. I reckon it's about 70% that we'll be playing Real Madrid in Munich so we should prepare already. All eyes will be on the game anyway. Real Madrid have always had defensive problems tho and i expect Bayern might score so it could be interesting.

Obviously i know he's not really a blue but when i watch ITV i cringe seeing Roy 'Boring Cunt' Keane not really give 2 fucks about anything, he doesn't smile or show any emotion whatsoever but Gary Neville was really into it yesterday. Not just as a commentator wanting the English team to win and all that crap, i mean he was really routing for us yesterday night, he sounded genuinely happy that we got through and not just because he had to go for the English team.

Anti-Football ftw! And yeah, Neville is a blue for sure haha, i loved his reaction to Torres' goal and even Rami's goal. He was so with us yesterday. Sky, in general were great with us yesterday, even Souness always says the right stuff.

I think we'll sit back a bit first half, try and feel ourselves into the game and then hope to be 0-0 at H/T to then go for it in the 2nd half. Either that or we'll get an early goal and play counter attacking. i think it will be conservative though because that's the way we are.

Think we're all still reeling, was the defensive performance of all defensive performances in that 2nd half. Welcome to TC, enjoy.

And i will The worst season in the Roman era could turn into the best season in the clubs history. Funny game.

Martin Samuel always gives us credit and always says the fucking truth. Media are media, Chelsea are Chelsea, we are hated, the whole of England are jealous of our recent success and many will hate. It's us vs the world and that means that we had one hell of an impact on football in the last decade. The whole world watched the game yesterday, the whole world saw what we did to everyone's favourite team. Fuck the media, we're in the UCL final and there's nothing anyone can do about it. We played to our strengths and got the job done which is how anyone should play. There are 2 sides to football, offence and defence, we focus more on the later and that is more important. If you score 7 you can still lose 8-7 but if you concede 0 you cannot lose. Defence is more important than attack and passion is more important than possession so media clowns, piss off We play how we want, we play how we waaaaaant, we're Chelsea FC we play how we want!

I've watched Bayern play great games this season and very poor games too. I think anyone here would rather get Bayern Munich but everyone would rather beat Real Madrid. Bayern have not even won their league again and Real are flying atm. We have a good record against Madrid and we have a good record against Ronaldo. But seriously Real Madrid will hammer Bayern today so although we all want Bayern, it is Real Madrid who we will get. 100% sure about that.

Eva musta loved it too being a Madrid fan, we can finally convert her soon when we beat them in Munich Mata hugging Drogs was like Father n son lmao just looked so sweet and yeah, as Alex mentioned, Lamps smashing Cesc-pit was one of the best moments of the night. I was nervous that the ref was gonna send him off but to take a yellow for that is so worth it ex gooner cunt. It's nice to avenge 09, it's nice to knock them out in their own stadium, it's nice to do it with 10 men but to do it when they have Fabregas = even sweeter.
