Cundy is such a legend, I wish he still did the commentary, so many games I've actually hoped it was Cundy commentating because his reactions are absolutely priceless.

"SHUT UP! SHUT UP! LET HIM DO THIS, THIS IS HIS DESTINY!"

Cundy was always the best on the commentry, used to watch repeat games just for his celebrations.

I remember when we knocked the bin dippers out the CL a few years ago and Lampard scored that penalty his celebration was quality!

Can I just say - much like the Barca game - NO ONE is talking about the referee.

Hats off to him, think we should have had a penalty but nothing amazingly stone-wall like against Barca in 2009. Pretty much got the bookings right, Luiz on another night could have perhaps seen red, justified or not... but he didn't. Well done ref, deserves his gold medal too.

...or whatever colour medal refs get.

Credit to the ref. Credit where it is due.

Roman has shown he has the 'common touch' as well by purchasing his sunglasses from a petrol station. The man is surely untouchable from a blue perspective, he's driven us forward to win the lot, not to mention the fact that he's raised a son who is Chelsea.

Think he got his shades at teh same plalce he got his wee digital watch.

Drogba's run up still angers me

God, I was yelling "No Didier, not the short run up, f**k's sake!"
Then after a good bit bouncing about all was forgiven

Drogba's leaving, confirmed: http://www.guardian....helsea-shanghai

[Carloseyebrow]

When I seen us win the ZDS cup way back , I thought that would take some beating.

On reflection Saturday night may just have eclipsed it.

germans, the masters of sponny victories and penalty shootouts - who showed no class in build up to the final - slagging off roman, jt, the club in every way, continue the biiterness in the papers after the defeat....well suck on your bratwurst - we won fair and square

http://www.telegraph...as-a-farce.html

But isn't that it? They were at home and they had every advantage and we won. There is a justice in that, it's one thing to play in your own country like Man Yoo last year, but your own stadium? How's that for a neutral site to decide European champion. Well f**k off Bayern media, the fact we won it in your ground despite the suspensions, despite the injury laboured defence, we still survived the storm and came out on top. How about a little grace in defeat as many other Bayern fans and others have shown.

Out of 23 Bayern crosses, 4 found Bayern players, but the other 19 times they gave it us back, thanks.

I can't believe there are people saying Cameron was wrong to celebrate our win in front of the German Chancellor? Have a f**king word!

Told you Di Matteo would go defence ! It worked a treat throughout his reign, and his team lineup against us when you lost 4-1 showed to me at least what his intentions were.

You didn't deserve to win, but then again, neither did Bayern. And before you jump on my back for that comment, many of you lot agreed when you went behind. BUT you did win it, against all the odds, so well done, Chelsea never stood a chance, but they ended up winning ole big ears.

A word on Drogba, I remember when we (Liverpool) played against Marseille and he ripped us apart, then Chelsea signed him. Of all the signings you have made, Drogba was possibly the best. In the final against us, in the final against Bayern, in many games he has played in, I may be betraying the history of your former players, but for me, he will be the one who was a constant pain in our backside. A brilliant player.

When you went behind, many on here said the same as what I said. Ok, to pick up that point, no, you didnt deserve it. All your team did was defend. They offered nothing to the game until you went behind. Then you bombed forward and scored. It was negative from Chelsea all through that game but when you came under pressure you responded. No, you didn't deserve to win, as long as it was 0-0 your team were happy to sit and defend. But when it came to responding, your team responded brilliantly. Bayern also deserved to lose as for all the possession they had, they did sod all with it.

Well done Chelsea.

Wasn't exactly a prophetic prediction saying we would play defensively. Not many people anywhere really thought otherwise and Yes we very much did deserve to win the cup. Defence is just as much a part of football as attack is and what Chelsea displayed in our last 3 CL matches was nothing short of a defensive masterclass, and guess what it nullified any chance of an attacking masterclass by two of the most talented squads in europe.

Don't come here and just say you are here to congratulate when you are slagging off and giving back handed compliments.
