I did enjoy last night's game. The slick, fast passing game of Bayern was a joy to watch and I don't know how they never put away the number of chances they created (yes I do, I watched LFC do it all last season). Chelsea rode their luck and when their (few) moments came, they took them. Interesting how Bayern had a million corners and hurt Chelsea nonce, while from Chelsea's first corner, Drogba speared home brilliantly with 3 minutes left.
Like Liverpool in 2005, they weren't the best team on the night, but they did the most important things to win the game. Never give up, never stop trying and always believe.
The sight of John Terry wallowing in their glory did make me feel a little bit sick though.
Thoroughly disgusting (non) human-being, he is.
At least Tottenham don't have to go through the charade Everton did in 2006, when UEFA had to let them in as well (cos they hadn't pre-thought this dilemma...yes, sums them up, quite) only to ensure that they got knocked out in the pre-qualifying game with the worst refereeing mistake seen for some time. Well, we couldn't have 5 English teams in the Champions League now, could we!! Blatter, Platini, Fair-Play my arse!!

What? No Cruijff? No Van Basten?
That picture is a shambles!

Edited for subtext:
"Winning the [Champions League] final was key, that was the turning point," Drogba told BBC Radio 5 live.
"We made history together but I think now is the best time to move on to China for £250,000 per week after tax."
Heh. Keep in mind that when "The Organization" dumps an aging but loyal player on his arse after he loses a step, it's just "a business decision", but when a player moves on for his own benefit, it's a "malicious betrayal." 
Hey, Jim, don't get me wrong - he's doing the right thing in my opinion. But there's always the publicly-stated reason, and then there's the actual reason. At least his departure will give Torres a chance to be the player that we reluctantly admired at 'pool.

Only fifteen days until EURO 2012!
amen to that. I will be locked away for three weeks!
Dont fancy England's chances much - dreary team selected by fairly dreary manager.
They might surprise a few people but after a functional performances in the group stages, watch them flounder against the first decent team in the knockout stage...
Spain, Germany, Holland should all see England off without too much trouble.
separated at birth: Didier Drogba and Grace Jones!!

Next time you see him, ask him where did his eyebrows go....
Theres a thread asking what threads made you laugh!
Thomas - that just did! Hammers used to say the same thing to Iain Dowie but Id never noticed disappearing eyebrows on warnock before. The hunt goes on!!!!
In all seriousness TG, he'll do okay at Leeds. He will give it the clearout and shake up at Leeds that it needs. You may not rip up trees to begin with but it'll improve.
