..Barca are a great team Kaysaar, they are so used to winning, they find it difficult to comprehend losing, thats why Ronaldinho reacted the way he did, nothing wrong in that, shows a great desire to win and a fighting attitude......for Chelsea to beat Barca is a great achievement and i hope Chelsea carry on to match Barca's illustrious footballing history...
BTW, Ahmed, Chelsea had a great win last night against West Ham, 1-4, with a couple of crackers from Shaun Wright-Phillips!!!!!....

FA Cup Final????
ha Ha... Man Utd... Show no mercy to the Blues...YEAH!!!!
Let's came serious..
Prediction???
Umm.....Jose Mourinho must have wanted a throphy for his team as the failure of the Champions league and the Failure of the English League
But also, Ferguson wanted to target one more trophy as the failure at Champions league. Now ... My prediction Will be :
Man Utd 2:2 Chelsea
Man Utd Scorers: C. Ronaldo, W.Rooney
Chelsea Scorers: J. Terry, D. Drogba
(Penalty Man Utd 5:4 Chelsea)

Ugh!.. the last thing I want to see is another big football game end in pens.
I probably wont even watch this one but if Chelsea win than it wont be the worst of years. Jose and Roman get something for their trouble,ManU get their title, Arse get nothing and the scousers get the deserved spanking by Milan.

I hope chelsea lose in a whirlwind of faky free kicks and cheating dives that the ref sees through, just because of Jose's ex team Porto performance against Celtic a few years back.

Thats one of a long list of reasons.
Chelsea is one of the most affluent areas of London and Britain - known for snobs etc.
Chelsea play boring football.
Their team is almost fully foreign.
Their team is 99% bought - no youth team players etc.
Mourinho is a nasty piece of work, making noise inthe media, complaining about cheating. Normal things that are not football.

Hurray for Chelsea . Great goal at the end of second overtime, though I was hoping for penalty kicks at that moment.

That's all true now.
However, once upon a time Chelsea was the Bohemian centre of London - like Greenwich Village or the Left Bank, and the team was supported by lots of actors and entertainers.
THEN it was popular.

..well, i was well chuffed that my team won, and at the end of the day, it really is the winning that counts, but the game was pretty dire, the first half a real drab affair...still, the goal was worthy enough and i am so, so, so glad it did not go to penalties, never a satisfactory way to conclude a game of football....
..the final was a let down, expectations were high but both teams failed to give a game that the new Wembley Stadium needed....both teams complained that the physical demands of the Premierhsip season had taken a toll, perhaps so......i have to admit that a bill of two heavyweights does not always deliver the expected high level of quality football, sometimes, it is better if one of the two finalists are from lower down the league tables, it tends to produce a more exciting spectacle and a visable fighting spirit.....
...oh well, end of another season and already looking forward to the next campaign, but at least this season ended on a high note for my team and the clubs supporters..!!!!!! ...
