FA Cup Final - Chelsea vs Portsmouth - Official Match Thread

[zego]

How can it be an embarrasment winning the double?

Chelsea needed 24 shots + a missed pen to get just one goal, and even that in-off the post.

Pompey never stopped playing calm and constructive football until the final whistle, backed all the way by their fans.

Diagram does demonstrate Chelsea's stumbling, but doesn't give proper credit to Pompey attacks.

I've never cheated on my girlfriends. I'd wager most of the people that criticise Terry for doing so haven't either. I imagine the people who answer with "oh and you've never cheated" are largely made up of men who have and try to justify it with "all guys do it"£ so perhaps find it hard to comprehend not all men cheat.

Even so, what is wrong with holding sporting heroes or role models to a higher standard? When you are the centre of adulation, when you represent people, be it your club or your country, why should you not be held to a higher standard?

Especially if you're privileged enough to be Captain of your Country

John Terry is massively over rated

And once again people suddenly hate JT because of something OFF the pitch. Everyone liked him a few months ago - get over it - it's nothing to do with football.

And you hate everything he stands for? By the looks of it the last few weeks he stand for being the winning Captain of the 2 biggest trophies in English football. Moral high ground anyone?

Pretty simple view. His actions could of split the camp

Only found out yesterday that it was cup final day today....and now I know Chelsea won too. Ho hum.

Shame really as the FA cup was always a really big deal when I was little. Nowadays, I lose all interest as soon as the Albion are out of it.

Sorry but reading that is like fingernails down a blackboard to me.

Yep, Ranieri, Mourinho, Grant, Hiddink, Scolari, Ancelloti, Erikksson, McClaren and Capello are all wrong aren't they?
