    How the hell could you have missed this? It took your club its entire existence to make it this far.

    I had the pleasure of taking my 'significant other' around the shops for Christmas, believe me I would have been far happier watching football!

    What I feel is that Fluminense has never won a Libertadores and not too long in the past they were in 3rd division needing virada de mesas twice to come back to the 1st division.

    Barcelona's trashing of Santos last year is the exception to the rule. Barcelona does that to ********ing everyone when they come out inspired.

    no they were not

    Chelsea were out played by both Barcelona and Bayern

    yet somehow won the title, at least Inter won their CL without the aid of penalties..and they made it out of the group in the next edition of the CL league

    also Chelsea would not have qualified to this years CL season if they had not won their CL, that alone tells you about the quality of the team

    It's so important to them that Drogba decided to go play in China instead of waiting 6 months to play in this competition.

    I don't respect Didier for that. He abandoned them in their time of need. Sad really.

    Maybe he felt Chelsea had used up all their luck last May and wanted to quit while the going was good. :p

    And England's terrible record at the CWC/IC continues. :rolleyes:

    For some reason ManU is the only Premiership club capable of winning this competition. Congratulations to Corinthians, they played a great game. I wish another team had broken the European streak (because of the nonsense that was Brazil 2000), but at least this keeps things interesting. As for Chelsea, Torres really should have put that chance at the end away, and why Victor Moses was allowed to waste chance after chance on the right side for 70 minutes only Benitez knows.

    Corinthians is still trending worldwide.

    The nerve of the BBC commentator who said this competition is the hardest to qualify for, but easiest to win. Yeah, so easy :rolleyes:

    He kept downplaying the trophy like a ********. Maybe he's related to Nuffsaid :p

    Chelsea players are going to be reading The Bible on their flighthome from Japan. Well, most of it... just not the book ofCorinthians! :p

    Apparently Roman Abramovich has a pretty bad headache after banging his noggin' against the wall throughout the match, so he'll probably have to hold on sacking Rafa for at least another week....

    Oh well looks like my prediction was right in the end... CFC won!

    Most English clubs are a bit of one-trick ponies. Their one trick works in the EPL, but outside, it doesn't. That's why English clubs tend to underperform in the Champions, too.

    United is the exception. They can change formations, change styles, and surprise rivals.

    I guess we will find out how important this was for Roman, will he fire Benitez this week or will he wait until next year?

    Replay on FSC starts at 1 CT, then Barcelona -Athletico Madrid at 3 CT, great 4 hours of Church this Sunday.

    I know you're just a troll, but Chelsea aren't even in the top 16 teams in Europe this season, and were recently beaten 3-1 by West Ham. Maybe Corinthians vs West Ham to decide the best team in the world? The FA Cup has as much at stake as this game as both are straight knockout tournaments.

    Can you disagree? You qualify you have to win the Champions League, when you get there it's just two games, one of which is against a team that doesn't stand a chance.

    Tell me a competition that is shorter or has less depth than any competition a top European team will play in?
