May 23, 201214 yr I've now watched the game about 6 times and the shootout alone on about 30 occasions. The weird thing is I can still feel the tension as they're being taken. Maybe it's because I could barely bring myself to watch them on the night and instead stood with my back to the screen holding my head whilst occasionally glancing over my shoulder. It is sinking in now though. I can't wait for the weekend to catch up with various people who drink in my local pubs that I haven't seen or heard from since I got back, Most of them told we had no chance. I just hope my Champions League winners t-shirt arrives by Friday because I intend to show it off and shove it in everyone's faces
May 23, 201214 yr Guys, I have listened to this over 100 times since sat night. Just listen to it and you will see why. Gives me goosebumps every single time and I get really emotional (like close to tears), sounds gay I know but In all my time of supporting Chelsea I have never felt like this before. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18132818#asset
May 23, 201214 yr Just watched Drogba's header & penalty. Still haven't got over it. Champions of Europe, who'd have thought it?

I can't believe how tense I feel whilst watching the PKs, it's like... surreal.
May 23, 201214 yr Ha ha! Just watching something like worst Euro moments on BBC3 and they said "will there ever be a day when England beat Germany on penalties?" YES THERE WILL - LAST SATURDAY!!!!!!!! Haven't commented on our epic win but Gem more or less summed up my thinking since then - so many times we were down - but never out! I'm almost more nervous each time I watch it! And was it just me or did Drogba nearly slip as he took it?! Still can't believe it - and can't keep coming back here to read everyone's comments and revel in the pictures and videos and just soak up the atmosphere. Love Luiz even more than I did before for his interview and his climbing on the crossbar. Absolutely love him!
May 23, 201214 yr No, Drogba did not slip; heck, his walkup to take the PK was too slow to slip. Edited May 23, 201214 yr by Phillip
May 23, 201214 yr It must be just my nerves - but just as he was going to kick the ball I thought I saw a slight something that made my nerves absolutely jangle - even on the repeats I can see it! Or is it just that when JT went up to the spot in Moscow I thought "this is destiny, JT to win it for us" and my niece said almost exactly the same thing this time except replacing Drog for Terry... i really don't know how we all survived the nerves!

May 24, 201214 yr Good Morning fellow Blues, Its 24th May 2012, a nice sunny morning and... CHELSEA ARE 2012 EUROPEAN CHAMPIONS. OH YES !
May 24, 201214 yr We couldn't beat Valencia, they said. We couldn't beat Napoli, they said. We couldn't beat Barca, they said. We couldn't beat Bayern, they definitely said! Well, take that!
May 24, 201214 yr We couldn't beat Valencia, they said. We couldn't beat Napoli, they said. We couldn't beat Barca, they said. We couldn't beat Bayern, they definitely said! Well, take that! I'm sure they probably also said we couldn't beat Benfica! I still can't believe it - has anyone ever won anything in such adverse circumstances?!
May 24, 201214 yr Actually, to be fair, we were favourites against Benfica but it turned out be anything but easy.
May 24, 201214 yr QUE SERA SERA WHATEVER WILL BE WILL BE WE WON IN GERMANY QUE SERA SERA........................
May 24, 201214 yr What a night this will be. The first six words of this thread says it all. That night in Munich 19-05-2012
May 24, 201214 yr This is hilarious.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yKCvZE_1pc&feature=player_embedded
May 24, 201214 yr From Facebook....i LOVE this....Mods, how about something like this for the forum banner???
May 24, 201214 yr Actually, to be fair, we were favourites against Benfica but it turned out be anything but easy. That's not how I remember it. I remember Southgate and Keane on ITV saying we would go through to be fair to them but the consensus was that our luck would run out and Benfica all of a sudden became world beaters based on the fact they had outplayed United home and away in the group stage. Before the ties I was confident we'd beat Bayern,Valencia, Napoli and Benfica. Barca less so only because the 2nd leg was at the Camp Nou but for no other reason. When we went 3-1 down in Naples I was sure we'd go out if AVB was manager for the 2nd leg but thankfully he wasn't. The media wrote us off at every single stage in the tournament Edited May 24, 201214 yr by Myles_91
May 24, 201214 yr I know I slagged off the self-videos in another thread, but did actually laugh at this video of a Chelsea fan:
May 24, 201214 yr I cry tears of joy when I watch Drogba taking that penalty now, knowing that his last kick won us the Champions League. Such a fitting way for a legend like him to leave
May 25, 201214 yr Good Morning my fellow Shed Enders. It is Friday 25th May 2012. CHELSEA ARE EUROPEAN CHAMPIONS LEAGUE WINNERS 2012 YOU'D BETTER BELIEVE IT !
May 25, 201214 yr Good Morning my fellow Shed Enders. It is Friday 25th May 2012. CHELSEA ARE EUROPEAN CHAMPIONS LEAGUE WINNERS 2012 YOU'D BETTER BELIEVE IT ! And in exactly 6 months I will be 32. Coincidence? I think not.
May 25, 201214 yr I still actually haven't seen the header, I was in the toilet at the time. Heard the shouts while I was in there and ran out screaming with my fly undone. What a night. What a f**king night.
