Havertz has been brilliant today

Sterling...he's fallen off so bad.

This game calls for an Agueroooooooooo moment

This one's fully on Pep imo.

Agree.
Been the better team ever since they subbed in a DM.

However, can’t expect to win it if you only start playing midway through the 2nd half.

Pep shouldve adapted at half time at the very latest.

Fully deserved by Chelsea.
What a performance.

N'golo Kante, World Cup winner, Premier League winner, now a champion of Europe. What a player.

CBS is really pushing the Pulisic- American hero narrative lol

The media is eating this up.

Rüdiger‘s development under Tuchel has been massive.

He's been so so so so instrumental. Throughout the entire competition. Just a beast.

Chilwell, James, Azpi. The entire defense dropped masterclasses today. Feels so good.

N'Golo Kante covers what ever on earth isnt covered by water. What a match by him.

You have to say he is getting in good position far more often than most other strikers but he is just poor at converting and also creating for others.

Or you could just say he's ****;

He was very good before Lampard too over. Don't know why he wasn't always played. Still a punk though.

Obviously I didn't watch the match. Not interested in two teams who wanted to sink real football and who weren't even interested in playing in the champion's league.

From what I've read Kanté was magnificent again, Pep was tactically inept, Chelsea managed to win a cup final this year, Werner proved that he can't shoot. Tuchel is this year's messiah.

Happy for Stormi and Kanté even though I no longer like Chelsea. Perhaps Pep will be pushed into getting Kane - I read that they could kill two birds by sending Jesus the other way as he's wanted by spurs. Both teams need a goal scoring striker on the pitch.

That's what makes him such a perplexing player, and why ultimately we don't win this CL without him.

His movement pulls Dias so far out of the play that Havertz can exploit the middle of the field. He's not the most technically gifted footballer, and his finishing has been shambolic this year. But he's been worth every single penny, and he's now a club legend.

3 wins in 6 weeks against this team is amazing. Tuchel is a genius but Pep blew this up, how on earth he came up with that lineup I don't know.
Rudiger should've been sent off though. He knew what he was doing there

Who will win the Champions League?
