Chelsea may have won the cup, but they have lost a lot of respect.


Why?

They played their hearts out, tirelessly defended and won. What's wrong with that?

As stated by others, but: Bayern played with their hearts out, tirelessly attacked and lost.

See, Bayern had to replace (just like Chelsea) 3 defensive starters. Why didn't Chelsea try to exploit this? They were just hoping for a lucky punch (saying they tried to counterattack would even be too much) or penalties. Would you rather see 2 teams like Chelsea or 2 like Bayern play each other? Didn't Abramovid fire coaches for not playing attarctive enough.

Well see you again after 5 years of financial fair play rules. Or rather, we won't.

(Disclaimer: I'm german, but I would not call myself a Bayern fan)

If I were to big a fail in this finals it would have to be Gomez. Sure Bayern has better strikers than that -.- I don't care if he's done 50 goals in this years CL. Robben was a disappointment too, not because of the missed penalty alone but the whole game he looked way try hard.
I would question Hoeness decision to put schweinsteiger on the penalty spot. He was way too distressed (although the penalty wasn't quite that bad), you could see that in Robbens penalty already. I love Olic so sucked to see him fail his penalty -.-

I think Chelsea deserved this if not only for their insane work morale and attitude. Last 3 games you could hardly tell that was Drogba. Cahill was sick the whole way. Everyone pulled their weight...& Terry.

Overall the game was really good: great goals, few posts, and a lot of chances and action.

Oh and the keepers made the penalties really exciting


I blame Bayern coach a lot too, he has subbed Mueller out for vanBuyten.

Why do you sub out your best player vs an injured defender?

To get time. Common procedure in the end-game. Only works, if IT REMAINS TO BE THE END-GAME and is not extended.


This has never ever worked. I can count tons and tons and tons of important games where the leading team has lost because they decided to play defensively and waste time.

Also why Mueller??? He is their best active and counter-style type of player. He has won best scorer award in the WC2010 just by scoring counter goals.

I don't know, how prudent it was to introduce another defender.

wow this was the most stupid game i have ever seen

chelsea should never have won that

they just sat on their asses until the 85th minute and then when they were down 0-1 they got lucky with a corner

i mean i'm certainly not unhappy that bayern lost since they are by far my least favourite team but that stupid style chelsea is playing is just not good for football in general

So much mad in this thread.

Just because you can string passes together doesn't mean you deserve to win, putting the ball in the back of the net does.

It just so happens Chelsea put the ball in the back of the net more than Bayern, should they have won? Sure. But Chelsea did everything they could to push their percentage of winning more and more in their favour.

Don't get mad at Chelsea, if they've played "anti-football" then apparantly it's more effective than playing football, but I mean who really plays to win these days?

Think back to the Games of Bayern vs Real Madrid, that was an offensive Firework, these Games were so incredibly much fun to watch, and than that, one Team running on against their Bad Luck. Just so sad to watch.

And again, it wasn't only that Chelsea played freakin defensiv, they played bad too, Bayern had so many chances to get that thing behind the Line, but they just got Mario Gomez and not Lady Luck on their side.

You're German, a lot of the angry fans in this thread are also German.


Do I see a pattern emerging?

You guys have very little understanding of luck and probability. If a team or a style of football has a low chance of winning (that is, a style that relies on the random part of football) then it is a bad style regardless of whether it manages to win one, two or ten trophies. And by low chance I'm saying that if this finals were played ten times, 8 out of 10 would have been won by Bayern.

But yeah, it is evident that what matters at the end of the day is that the ball gets in the net, how is that even an argument when talking about who deserves what.

why angry?

not every german is a fan of bayern munich in fact most germans don't like them at all (like me for example) but the way chelsea played and how lucky they got... it's just pretty silly that they won

you can't possibly that bayern didn't play much better than chelsea this game

Bayern beat themself, imo

3 matchballs, and missed them all

Well I dont want to be in the skin of Robben or Schweinsteiger - those must be awfully painful minutes for them right now.

Too bad Bayern doesnt get another chance playing a Final in their home stadium anytime soon.

In the end, Bayern just beat themself and this is how it ends...

I love to see the tears of the Bayern. HAHAHA I hate them so much! And I'm happy for Drogba, on of the best Strikers of the last decade.
