I don't think I've ever seen Torres this happy!

It hasn't sunk in yet.. we're the champions of Europe. Wow.

Ashley Cole was outstanding last night. Without a doubt, he's still one of the best left backs in the world. He doesn't seem to have lost much pace either.

Bruce Buck told Sky Sports that RdM will be "in the mix" and "seriously considered" for the Chelsea job.

Happy birthday to Petr Cech, he's 30 today.

What aboul Mikel? His performance was absolute world class.


Champions of Europe... what a ring that's got to it, I love it.

Mikel was awesome. I wasn't his biggest fan earlier in the season, but he's been quality as of late. Cahill has also been very impressive. We paid a mere £7m for him and all he's done is impress.

The general overall quality of the Premiership is not as high as it was a few years back, but damn this was like the craziest and most enjoyable season ever.

I feel like Drogba deserves to be in this year's top 3 best players in the world list.
He literally carried them on his shoulders this season.

1. Messi
2. C. Ronaldo
3. Drogba

Lol at how bitter I sounded last night. It was mainly becauas I lost a lot of money on various bets. HT/Bayern, Bayern on pens, a lot on Bayern just to win in 90. That's why I was pissed off haha

Serious congratulations, I can't even imagine how good that must feel (sigh). I'd probably end up dead in a ditch if we ever won it. It was boring but if it whens you the European Cup, who cares?

Haha no worries. The odds for Chelsea to win before the game were crazy. If I remember correctly, wasn't it close to 3/1? The odds must have been ridiculous for a Chelsea win after Muller scored.

Up until the last 10 minutes and ET, it was a boring game but like you said, who cares when your team wins the thing! I'm happy Newcastle didn't finish fourth though, that would have been devastating for you guys.

Premier League Champions: Manchester City
FA Cup Winners: Chelsea
League Cup Winners: Liverpool
Champions League Winners: Chelsea


To all you reds on this forum, where are you now? WHERE ARE UNITED ON THAT LIST?

You got shafted out of the Champions League, beaten by a terrible Liverpool team in the FA Cup, and knocked out by Crystal Palace in the League Cup.

Then you surrendered an 8 point lead to your biggest rivals you spineless arrogant bottlers.

Enjoy the long, long, depressingly empty summer as City and Chelsea beat you to all your transfer targets.

That is all.

Haha yeah I saw that on WAGNH.

Drogba and Petr Čech are the only reason Chelsea won.

Seeing RDM walking up the stairs like a fucking boss was priceless.

The 6th best team in England wins the Champions League.

The Premier League is the best in the world!

Yep and to me it's not just the Premier League that makes English football the best. I was comparing the Championship to the 2nd division in Spain and the difference is huge:

English 2nd league: http://soccernet.espn.go.com/stats/atte ... ip?cc=5739

Spanish 2nd league: http://www.worldfootball.net/zuschauer/ ... 11-2012/1/

Even In the English 3rd Division Sheffield Wednesday were getting attendances of 30,000+ last season.

Looking forward to next season and now with West Ham promoted it makes it 6 London teams in the top league. That's 10 London derbys out of 38 games for the London teams next season.
