Yes, thank you Mr Abramovich - the past decade has been wonderful and with this appointment we can all look forward to some great times.

Of his return, Mourinho said: “I’m not happy, I am very happy. I was preparing myself in the last couple of days to control emotions, to come here in a cool way but I’m really emotional.” You have to love the man..... Come on Chelsea!

My work is full of Man Utd fans and they were seething today. They believed the Special One would succeed Sir Alex but they got Moyes..... I've been rubbing it in all day. Welcome Home Jose - I can't wait for the new season. There'll be ups and downs of course but it already feels like we've got the family back together. After all the frustration with the appointment of Benitez, I think we have to say thanks to Roman for taking us on this journey - it's going to be great!

my favourite moment of last year was seeing the guys in the Chelsea TV studio watching the penalties - brilliant television "Shut up, shut up!. It's his destiny!"

Stunned people are listing squads without Lukaku. Get the fridge back to the bridge

Surprised the club hasn't got a full squad photo with both trophies out yet. Maybe they are waiting for Jose to arrive.

This is pretty exciting - im stuck killing time at gatwick riveted to this thread

11-year-old Liverpool fan picks up the Europa League trophy with Chelsea story today about the wee fair haired boy that went up with the Chelsea players to lift the trophy - probably the closest any Liverpool fan will get to a European trophy in the next decade

We need a win against Everton. Third and direct entry to CL group stage is important. Our UEFA coefficient is going to be through the roof bound to be in the top seeds

it's been tough watching Torres this season but to be fair he has put in a stint in the European games particularly. Tonight's goal was pure Torres, great to see. Next season we should maybe play him in Europe and use Lukaku / Ba / Cavani in the Premier League

if you can get to a tv it's on ITV+1 right now -

Well done to whoever stole Rafa's notebook tonight, without it he obviously couldn't remember who to take off for Benayoun after 66 minutes....

MAKING HISTORY

i want a nice squad photo with the Champions League and Europa League trophies - CFC Making History

hold on.....Man City to swoop for Benitez!!! - such an obvious choice for a man who is looking for a "big cloobe that can challenge to win things"

i just can't see Jose going to Man City; the guy loves to be the centre of attention and he knows the media interest in his return to Chelsea will be massive. unfinished business, reconciliation with Roman, what happens with Frank - all of these situations provide a wonderful platform for Jose. in contrast going to City says only one thing - i'm after the money....

it has been a wonderful privilege to watch Frank give everything for the club. breaking the record is a perfect reward for his commitment to Chelsea and puts him in the record books for ever. probably our greatest player ever, i believe this record will stand for many, many years. Super Frank ::clap2::

ITV Sport saying Pellegrini rumoured to have been offered Man City job - if true that's another contender gone......

Paul Lambert -- typical whinging moaning griping about everything. They teach that at Celtic, they're all at it.

i really enjoyed this thread today - captured all our fears and joys - brilliant stuff. I think we are the only game on MOTD tonight so we can all enjoy it again later.....roll on Wednesday Blue Is The Colour

I'M SHATTERED - 98 and a half minutes......we did it though what a result

Frank!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES YES YES YES

love the way the SKY commentary is enjoying the abuse JT is getting - looks like he could have a broken ankle

mind you if it stays like this we still need to beat Everton

Super super Frank Super super Frank Super super Frank Super Frankie Lampard
