We have won silverware after two years of being in the wilderness - what now for Chelsea?


Given the heat at pitchside today, both teams played awsome, and we scored a goal that never was. . . .Oh well!

Re: What's good for the Guus. . . .

I say a pretty poor season for a team with so much money been spent and the quality, and i like the fact that chelsea seem to think they have got something out of it, hehehe. Although i like the fa cup it has become one of those cups like the league cup where it doesn't really mean what it once used to.

Sorry, but on the day, and in the final judgement, when it was time to stand up and be counted we just didn't turn up.

Hiddink is the third manager in two years - the only top-flight team to have such a turnover of managers (other than Newcastle), and look what's happened to them. . . .


When it comes to the finances, compare it to Man City and Roman's millions is pocket money.

Sounds like Chelsea's season.


Maybe I should support Farnborogh Town. . . .

Yeh, i give you that. But considering chelsea really wanted the champions league and premier the fa cup seems a 'had to settle for deal'. Plus, spurs have collected a few managers in their time just like newcastle and chelsea are not in the same boat as either, far from it.

At the end of the day, Chelsea were the better team. After the first goal, Everton were at sixes and sevens but they all gave 110%, and for that they can hold their heads high. They took the early lead but then Chelsea set their stall out and absolutely worked their socks off.

 

Do I win?

Now there's a lost cause if ever I saw one - kentish teams?

Re: What's good for the Guus. . . .

let's hope Ancelotti can inspire the players like Hiddink - please Roman, if he's good don't discard him like Jose.
