Worth pointing out that 3 of the Top flight top 4 won a major trophy this season. The other 1 was Tottenham Hotspur. LMAO.

 
Spurs had more possession and shots, so he has a point though like I said earlier Spurs timing was out.
That’s taking a statistical look at the game though. Of those shots how many were actually clear chances? I count one. Possession doesn’t mean you were amazing either. Liverpool got an early and looked to defend it. Neither team were great or even good. 

 
Spurs had all the luck in the world to get to the final but it ran out and we got to see them for what they are...bottlers...how many trophies have they had a chance of winning over last 3-4 years now and not finished the job? I saw some in the media argue that poch's decision to treat domestic cups as not important had been justified cos they reached the cl final...bollox...knowing how to win something is huge on nights like this.

Although i get that Liverpool haven't won anything until tonight either...
How many semi finals have they reached aswel failing to make the final. They’re the biggest bottlers going.

I thought Allison was probably the MOTM.

 
liverpool after a one minute goal went to sit back the whole game.

chelsea yesterday just went on going after first second third and even after arsenal first. sarri told them at the HT just to be more brave. and now he's gone. 
IF he is gone it is only because it is HIS choice. No way do I see us sacking him. If he decides he wants to go to Juve because of their dominance in Italy, the money, to be back in his homeland or whatever then little can be done about it.

If he leaves because the fans chanted "F*ck Sarriball" or booed Jorginho then he needs to get a thicker hide and in either case he should stand by his "love" of the Premier League and stick it out. Personally am a bit disappointed he did not say after Wednesday something like "So f*ck Sarriball eh, you are welcome!" With a cigar in one hand and the trophy in the other. Would have been hilarious.

 
Man they really do sing the same f**king song over and over. Then they turn around and make fun of other clubs songs. At least we don't need a backing track

 
Obviously we haven't seen Spurs in training yet Poch made a big call to start Harry Kane tonight after his injury.

I think he will regret that as Kane looked ordinary.

Group stages and finals seem to be nearly always boring games, it's just the two leg games that seem to provide the huge majority of excitement.

 
I live near Tottenham town. I hate Tottenham. My Chelsea supporting bessie mate hates Tottenham so much he booked an expensive holiday on the other side of the world for him and the missus because he could not bear the pain and heartache  he would have got round here if Tottenham had won. One minute after Liverpool's 2nd goal he texted me to say he felt safe to come home. You have to salute that.

We hate Tottenham.

 
A match low in entertainment and quality, might as well have just watched the first two minutes and last ten minutes at most really.

Still in the circumstances think the least worst outcome for this final was Liverpool winning it, however much the media praise spurs, they still end up all spursy yet again. Just wish A**x had made it to the final instead, think they could have really given a better game and quite possibly won it.

Overall glad of this most of all tonight - still the only team in London with the European Cup!

 
Salah was poor, even his penalty was not really that good.  Hard hit yes, but poor direction that Loris almost got to.

Robertson was terrific.  Wish we had him.
