He's always been a good tackler and defender, I'm surprised you only noticed it recently.

BlueLion, please accept my condolences TX, please accept my felicitations

Yep, Mikel was hogging it as if it were his baby.. I think it was Meireles behind him trying to get a feel of the cup, didn't happen.

I was reading this article and I noticed - that's flippin' Lukaku! No wonder he's so ripped.

why are you disappointed? you can't kick me out I'm "club captain" my fans will be enraged!.. player power will prevail

We played our best team against livershit and it included Bos for 90 minutes. There are absolutely no signs that Robbie will have a sudden change of heart.

Okay, I've done it. It was difficult, but in the end it came down to simple logic - who do I remember best and assign them to their closest categories. If I remember them, then there must be good reason. But at first I want to present the list of honourable mentions, 'cause I felt bad leaving every single one of them out. The list is far from complete, but it would take ages to name every single person. Here we go: Tomo-91, KieranVogel, Fulham Broadway, Strike, Spike Spiegel, Sloth, Sheva., Kostas, Badboy, We Hate Scouse, Swedish House Mafia, milan.cech, Henrique, CHOULO19, The Big Drog, True Blue, BlueLion, Steve, Shonex, Kez, Artinho, DavidEU, zolayes... ... now that the big egos above know they're out it's time to carry on to the main event.

should just rename it to Chelsea Cup then

I still find it entertaining that liverpool exiled the man behind those transfers as far away as possible to France. The moment they realized they'd been epically trolled by this Comolli fellow must have been very awkward. http://www.telegraph...of-results.html

True, if anything, then individual honours

so basically Chelsea can win 4 FA Cups this season? Main, youth, ladies, girls?

I noticed that the last goal we scored was from the exact combination we won it in 2007... Mikel to Lampard, Lampard to Drogba. History repetition at its best

I hope Bayern will still be considered favourites come 19th. Napoli 3-1 Chelsea ---> Chelsea 4-1 Napoli; Chelsea 1-0 Barcelona ---> Barcelona 2-2 Chelsea

It was a certain goal and the moment Suarez or whoever crossed the ball, I buried my head in my hands ready to feel the despair of giving up another lead to noone else but the team I hate the most. I learned my lesson, never give up with Cech in goal.

It highlights our lack of concentration and motivation against lesser teams. Our core players have participated in so many finals and big games already that they subconsciously think of those fixtures as a little sniff. This season and the season before there was evidently lack of concentration in countless games. This makes me believe that our new permanent manager's one of strongest attributes should be motivating, not purely technical (I admit, AVB was more of a technical rather than a mental manager). This team seems to thrive on emotion more than anything.. look at how they've picked themselves up now that the decisive moments of the season have arrived, even though most of them are average footballers and it showed when they played without spirit and tangible pressure.

that's genius

Exactly my thoughts. I have awful memory on usernames, but good memory on well-presented posts. I do have some stand-out names in my mind, but it will be tricky to think of one for every category. Furthermore, it's incredibly hard to remember what went on in the whole past year. At least for me, I remember virtually nothing of past summer and autumn, although I know what the general mood and discussions were about, just not by whom. I'm almost certain that most of those nominations are based on last few months max, especially by newer members. I will put some thought in if and how I'm going to vote and then I'll get back to you.

For the same club? If not, then how many have won it with the same club?

no, because your God E: sry just rechecked in the awards thread, apparently steve is god.. i always confuse you two. Nevermind then, move along, nothing to see here.

Sorry if your having problems browsing the forums, were getting a lot of traffic at the moment. KTBFFH,Jim I expected better from you Jim I would also be disappointed if BlueLion, a fellow pedant, didn't give you a bollocking on that. On a serious note. I like that finally the forum automatically recognizes mobile devices and sets the skin accordingly. It used to be annoying as hell to change the layouts everytime when changing between PC and phone.

not a chance. he will start the final i can bet my house on that. sidenote: i don't own a house

Also our CL finals have come from 2 of the most unlikeliest sources - Grant and an interim manager. It seems we do best after a shitstorm.. nobody expected that after TSO's departure and only lack of luck stopped us from winning it with Grant. Nobody expected Di Matteo to do it either.

Yep, if neither of them make it we'll be fucked. We'd most likely have to play Bosi-Essien in defence. Although I'm confident that at least one will.

Celebrations of everyone were legitimate. It is not individuals FC, it's Chelsea FC... afaic even the cleaning ladies and masseurs had the right to celebrate. The fickle fans of shitpool are just bitter that losing this cup means they had their worst campaign in 50 years and the only solace they find is in undermining their superior's achievements. Not to mention the fact that with liverpool he had nothing to celebrate, zero, absolutely NOTHING. Newsflash: WE ARE CAREFREE no matter what you say

Alongside Eddie btw.. referring to the 1st pic. The same duo to mastermind our victory. Are there pictures of Eddie with the cup?
