Initially I was most afraid of Bayern.
After Bayern, Paris.
When it became known that our opponent in the final is Pep and not Paris my worrying was minimal.

 

Nahh we would have eaten PSG as well

Can we hold on to the CL ?
In 2013 everyone thought we could, but unexpectedly we failed against Inter Milan (Jose's revenge).
In 2014 heroic effort without Peter Czech in the semi - we went out.
Next we went out to Paris twice and to Bayern last year but we were not really that good to win it.
Champions league is difficult for everybody but in the last ten years it was Real Madrid who managed to snatch four. Real managed to win those champions leagues with Cristiano of course and not with today's clowns.
The rest is CFC 2, Bayern 2, Uefalona 2 and pool 1.
This time we have a fairly young team and I think it's up to Abra to create a Chelsea era.

 

Your numbers are fucked but fair play

This was pointed out by other fans. Can someone  explain the 2 different trophies? It's obvious they're not the same if you look at the shape of the handles.

Be the original and a replica surely? I don’t think they give out the original, or would of thought not bar the trophy lifting presentation no?

[Laylabelle 9,357]

Loved the trophy presentation on the pitch as well! No walking up steps and trying to cram everyone together. Looked so much better!!

The only silverlighting in all of this is that we have been incredible under Tuchel when seen as the underdogs. Not to mention Pep will spend all week over thinking his set up considering how poor we are against a low block. 

 

Ooooooh, called it. 👊

We seem to have created five dangerous situations infront of goal to City's six.
But in that department City had the last fifteen minutes sort of going for them because the scoreline was such that it was inevitably their turn to press forward.
So in effect City were not really the attacking team on Saturday.

Their best chance was with Foden. He could easily make a goal.

A part that, there are some "almost" chances like we have.

City didn't create anything as clear as the two Werner chances early on (especially the second one) and the Pulisic chance.

Like you said they had half or nearly chances but were thwarted consistently by blocks and great defending before they could even reach the goal. All 3 centre backs and both wing backs made some fantastic blocks and tackles to prevent what could have been great chances but ultimately they snuffed it out before it became a chance compared to City who failed to do the same.

Before the Mahrez shot in the last minute (which was hopeful more than anything) I genuinely can't remember anything else in the game. Was their one shot on target that Mahrez mis-hit cross?

Just me that feeling scared when Ederson shoot before final whisle?  

[GoldChelsea 7]

I am very happy with this victory told how it was your night

Leicester missed a better chance than that in the 2-1.

The FA cup was stolen once.
Since then they make replicas.

2012 - Swansong for a great generation of Chelsea players

2021 - Statement of arrival from a new core group of players

I think there is every reason for fans to be excited for the coming years.

What is really exciting is we genuinely have a chance to add more in the next few years with the overall state of the European teams.

On paper our three biggest obstacles are Bayern, City and Paris and two of them keep freezing in the competition.

Massive massive chance to get a few in the cabinet and really establish ourselves as the elite.

I would like for us to add another 2 PL titles within the next 3 years at least. 

No. 7 is a long time waiting.

We need to be serious on the domestic front too.
