Fluked the CL
Grow up.
When Chelsea won the CL there were many sides to it:-
Flukey = The style of coming through and winning like that was amazingly flukey. Barca & Bayern were all over them and should of knocked them out but luck was against them both (for once)!!!
Hypocritical = Coming from Cheam (A massive Chelsea strong hold) when Arsenal "Parked the bus" against Barca the ear bashing I got "You only had one shot" "You just stayed in your half" blah blah blah...
Classless = John Terry & the fans (Need I say more?)
Exciting = Come on, I was out my seat!!!
Funny = THFC brilliant!!!!
Deluded = To say this makes you the biggest club in London/England/Europe well, I think last week put that one to bed!!!!

What a clueless statement - it proves nothing either way - seeing as the only way Arsenal could possibly qualify to play in it would be to win the Europa League.
To put the record straight - most Chelsea Fans who go back a while, myself included, will quite happily admit that size wise we lost a considerable amount of ground to Arsenal during our 'lean period' in the 70s & 80s, ground we have still not made up yet!
Which just goes to prove that 'floating fans', will always be attracted to success - if you want to take that as a veiled insinuation that The Emirates is full of glory hunters - then take it as you want!
So take your classless jibe and shove it were it belongs!
I lived in Islington until I was 5 then Wandsworth until 4 years ago and to see the amount of red that was worn from Albert Bridge all the way down to Guildford between 75- 05 was amazing until around 2006 where suddenly everything went blue.
Highbury has sold out since the mid 80's, as does now the Emirates so my classless jibe is more fact based!!!
Glad you didn't disagree the luck bit!
Classless = John Terry & the fans (Need I say more?)
----------------
Terry yes. I admire him as a footballer but can accept that he is an awful role model. Fans? Evidence please.
Flukey = The style of coming through and winning like that was amazingly flukey. Barca & Bayern were all over them and should of knocked them out but luck was against them both (for once)!!!
------------------
What is flukey about it? We defended incredibly well. We conceded 2 goals against one of the best teams in history with about half of our players playing out of position. Cech had one of the games of his life, Messi's penalty came from a dive by Fabregas and even if Torres hadn't scored we still would have gone through
Yes Bayern were all over us but we had lots of suspensions and were playing them in their own back yard. We knew that if we went all out attack then they would have hit us on the break and scored so we defended and defended well again. There was a bit of luck but it wasn't exceptionally lucky. We showed character to win the Champions League.
If you are going to say Robben's penalty miss was lucky for us then the same could be said for you in your semi final against Villarreal when they missed a late penalty. We have been unlucky in the past in the CL and come closer than you did to winning it before 2012 so we deserved some luck in it to some extent.
To say this makes you the biggest club in London/England/Europe well, I think last week put that one to bed!!!!

We are some way off Arsenal but we are the second biggest club in London IMO.
