Been trying to establish who got Champions League winners medals, and who didn't.

Based on the picture I have on my computer screen, these players got them:

Cech

Bosingwa

Cole

Luiz

Cahill

Lampard

Mikel

Mata

Bertrand

Kalou

Drogba

Malouda

Torres

Turnbull

Fereira

Essien

Sturride

Romeu (can't see him in the picture, but I assume he did considering he was a sub?)

Meireles

Ramires

Terry

Ivanovic

Blackman (surprised me, Hilario didn't get one)

That's 23 players, is that our whole squad for the competition?

I noticed no medals for Hilario, Lukaku. I know Lukaku wasn't in the squad, but I was sure Hilario was. Blackman was a B-List player, so I don't know how he got one, because Todd Kane was also on the B-List, and he did not. Chalobah I think was in the same boat and also didn't medal. Hutchinson didn't get one, and as far as I can tell he wasn't in the A or B squad,

Anyone care to confirm/deny/explain/elaborate on any of this. Mainly the Blackman part. Don't imagine Hilario gave him his medal or something lol

It's not that important, but it's interested me.

I've read that the team get 30 gold medals and everyone in the first team are eligible to get one. Guess the club decided who will get one. Not sure who decided which players will get one, but I suppose the ones who have played atleast one game in the Champions League are chosen first.

Forgot to write that I would be surprised if Hilario didn't get one, especially if Blackman got a medal. Hilario should be above Blackman on the list.

Correct me if wrong but doesn't a club needs to enter a list of 30 player egible to play CL before season.Guess those players are getting the medal.

I think I read somewhere that Hilario was taken off the squad in January. The keepers Chelsea had in the squad post January were Cech, Turnbull and Blackman (Coz he is one of the home grown player)

So, Hilario, Alex and Anelka were off the squad in January and the players who replaced them were Blackman, Cahill and Bertrand.

Correct me, if I am wrong.

jody morris got a medal.

That really sucks for Hilario :( Was still good to see him out celebrating like crazy though

jody morris got a medal.

Ha! That did get returned to its rightful owner in the end!!

I'm sure any aggrieved players can make a case with the club if need be.

Making sure Robben and Schweinsteigergruppenfurher didn't get one was the main thing!

Sorry to start another thread about the game (as if we can have enough!) but was trying to figure out exactly who received an actual medal for this tourney. I know the first team basically all got one, but my questions are as follows:

1. I've read that Blackman got one but haven't read the same about Kane or Chalobah. I thought all three had taken part in the training leading up to the final. Was Blackman part of the group stage team at one point?

2. Hutch apparently got one, which is awesome, and Lukaku was offered one but apparently turned it down since he played no part in it. Not really a question, but I think that's pretty cool of Lukaku, wants to earn one himself!

3. What about Anelka and Alex. Did either play in the group stages? If so, would they technically get one? Did Josh play in the group stage? I saw Josh on the bus the other day, but that doesn't technically mean anything.

Just something that piqued my interest, was wondering if anyone knew the answers to any of the questions.

deja vu????????????

Sorry, looked at the first page of posts and didn't see anything. My mistake.

It's 30 medals to the club and up to them how they want to hand them out

There's a massive picture here

You can see Blackman and Turnbull have one but not Hilario

I think Hutch got one as well

Lukaku was supposedly offered one but he said no as he wasn't part of the CL squad
