Ummm. There were a lot of Chelsea fans fearing those sort of scorelines too. !

Apart from me of course !!

i feared that. i admit it.

I just had dinner with a couple of friends and they asked why Trump was even at the trophy ceremony and has any other head of state ever done this. I couldn't think of another example. Anybody?

Nope. He's just a weirdo but he has clout so it's the easiest free publicity ever

That’s a good watch. What a great day. Still on cloud nine from this one.

Been thinking where this ranks among biggest Chelsea trophy winning victories during my life. Given all we’ve been through in recent years, to climb back to the top is a different level of satisfying. If I had to rank them:

1) 1997 FA Cup Final with my dad, old Wembley. First major trophy for nearly 3 decades, and that RDM goal. Such good memories

2) PL title 1 under Jose. Everyone knows where they were when Frank scored those two at Bolton

3) CL in Munich. What else is there to say

4) Honestly, it might be the 2025 FCWC for me. Just elated

There are many others to choose from, but that might be it for me based on pure emotion of the occasion. Reserve the right to change it though!

Fan since 2000 ....Personally for me its CWC 2025. Maresca proved me wrong but now I have a question, can he have tactical consistency over the period of season or 38 games ?? Most other trophies were expected and we had high hopes anyway. Next after CWC for me is 2021 Champions league with Thomas Tuchel . We literally destroyed teams that year just like PSG did this year and we were not favorites.

Nothing will beat 2012 for me. I can't put this above the Prem but honestly in terms of being a proud Chelsea fan, this is second after Munich.

I`d have the Cup winners cup in 98 ahead of this one, that Zola goal after coming on was such a sweet hit.

Where's our trophy, who has our trophy

?!

Munich was unbelievable. Drogba’s goal when time was ticking down still gives me goosebumps . And then the penalties! Luiz and Ashley Cole’s stand out for me, moreso than Drogba’s last winning kick. And did I not even mention Cech’s save of the penalty in xtra time with that beach ball maybe distracting Robben!

Let's not turn this into a political discussion! We beat the current best team on the planet in a final; let's keep it on that!

Well I go back to 1966 when the Queen presented the WC. In 1996 she presented the Euro trophy.

In 1978 the head of the military ( which was in control) in Argentina presented the WC

I think Macron presented the 2018 WC.

That’s all I can remember

Well there was those Olympics!!!

I think if you delve into other sports there will be numerous other examples but in football terms is where my memories are

Yes, it's not uncommon at all. What was absolutely unique was inserting himself into the actual team celebration.

And his raised fist celebration to the crowd when he walked onto the pitch and his traditional pointing at someone in the crowd, like at a MAGA rally.

In his interview about an.hour afterwards , when asked what it said about America successfully hosting this competition...he actually brought up Biden and the previous administration destroying America !!

Can't take anything away from our absolutely astonishing trophy win .

Oh right, I remember now, especially the 1978 WC, when the Netherlands had lost the final

I also lip-read a "Congratulations" when he shook hands with a player of the losing team

 

[The Rising Sun]

I like watching other teams fans reactions to our trophy winning games.

Mark Goldbridge, Utd fan , Chelsea hater ..When we scored the 3rd goal he actually sat back and applauded! He said " this all I can do, just applaud this performance"

Earlier on he said" I can't even say it's a poor PSG performance, it's because Chelsea have totally dominated them and fully deserved to be leading " .

The AFTV fan watch along by one of there fans seems to be cut short after one of our goals, " God , I hate that team"

That's him all over. Did you see him asking the players of one of the teams in the Whitehouse, " would a woman be good enough to play in your team" ?.... Embarrassing silence.. He turns round and asked the coaches etc.... When told they have a good women's team already..." But they have to play with other women, right?"

And your score for Reece James ?

Gosh how did i miss out the skipper!.....8

I love watching Rants. He respects us and lauds Cole Palmer. Out of all our rivals, Utd fans seem to have the most respect for Chelsea which I appreciate.
