it's either a supernatural miracle or match fixing that you manage to win these games all the time.

I only watched the second half but thought Chelsea looked the better team. I assume they were outplayed in the first half then?
Good win for Chelsea as Benfica are a good side. But unfortunately the CL has totally devalued the Europa League/UEFA Cup as demonstrated by the fact that both finalists were knocked out at the CL Group stage.
It's a shame as it used to be a great tournament in the 70's and 80's. But the beefed up CL was always going to have an adverse affect on the other European competitions.
I think this tournament will be chopped completely in a few years time and all we will have is one big CL.

says alot about Cech that the only goal they got was an unlucky pen from a handball

It's called mental strength and having a great keeper.
Maybe your team should invest in a better keeper and winners. Then maybe you may be able to win the Carling Cup

That isn't enviable, it isn't enviable at all. However, Chelsea just seem to have this knack of winning right now.

When you have players who are winners, there's always a chance.
We are just full of French Ligue 1 champions.

I would say mental strength is about 1/10 and Cech 2/10's, the rest is some kind of magic that is beyond my understanding.

First of all, Arsenal only have one Ligue 1 champion. Secondly, surely being a champion would make him a winner?

Haha with that sort of attitude, you're bound to be a failure.

Cech is comfortably the best in the league
