Liverpool broke my heart yesterday and I dont think I can ever forgive them!
Leading with a single goal from the first leg at Stamford Bridge and having dominated Liverpool FC completely. I was 100% sure we would be playing in our first Champions League Final ever.
It was not meant to be.
A well taken free-kick, an incisve shot on goal and Liverpool were tied on aggregate. They then proceeded to stifle the game. Playing our 60th game of the season against such tactics, it showed it WAS our 60th game. As one of my colleagues put it, we didnt show up for the game. But who can blame the players. There is so much the human body can take.
But within all this heartbreak... I would NEVER ever swap our positions for anybody's! Chasing four trophies this season, Chelsea FC has had a remarkable season. We dared to dream and acted on that dream. League Cup success is not going to be followed by Champions League success. Not this season at least.
Still an FA cup final to play. Oldest football competition in the world. To be played in the new Wembley stadium against the most successful club in England in the last 2 decades. At least we know what the grand finale will be for this season. As has been reported, Manchester United and Chelsea will field their strongest 11 for the FA cup having lost their places in the final of the CL
A bit of a consolation there that Man U lost as well. Having opened up a five point lead last week, it would have been galling for them to go on to Athens to the final. A bit mean of me but there you go! And as it is... I am now a fan of AC Milan IN EUROPE until May 20! Go Kaka!!!
And Tribute must go to the "Special One"! Jose Mourinho has already cemented his place in legends of yore. I just hope that crazy Russian at the top keeps him. I hate the speculation going around concerning Mourinho's job.
No one is that stupid!
I shall be supporting a Manchester based club as well this Saturday. United landed at 3:30am on Thursday and play City on Saturday. If they lose and we win at the Emirates Stadium, Title race is blown wide open again!!! This is what you call... down to the wire!!!
COME ON BLUES!!!
