Originally posted by Trev33i still dont think being in the europa league final can be called a failure. liverpool newcastle etc they can be classed as failures. man u just miles ahead of everyone in quality this season, chelsea did well considering the usual owners involvement in team selection. i think a good few english teams wish they where in chelseas shoes

Well said, roma54! Chelsea is far from being a failure. IN effect they were robbed of defending their FA Cup title by bad ref in semi against ManCity. Top three finsih is never a failure. As for today, "Go Wigan!" Beat that Arsenal snot outa their faces and make Piers Morgan cry!

Originally posted by roma45For sure but can you imagine Barcelona in the final of the Europa league after winning the CL? FA cup and CL winners last year but finished 5ht in the PL, this year 3rd in the PL, out in the first round of the CL. Maybe failure is harsh but it's not a success. Regardless of what they do in the second rate Europa league.

It is harsh, trev! Third place finsih in EPL and possibly Europa League triumph is hardly a season to scoff at. Especially since their managment got rid of Di Matteo, the better coach, and inserted a dislikeable Benitez. I'd say theirs is a dream finish given the circumstances.

It is painfully obvious there's other jerrys in other sports. Abramovich, however, seems to get at least some results. Back to back UEFA and Europa league triumphs is not a bad day at the office, eh? It was a fantastic game to boot!
