AFK
I kinda hoped Chelsea wouldnt win the Champions League. Because only then would the long-term problems facing the squad would be addressed. The squad then was old, completely mismanaged and had created a rift involving the coach with the players (top players like Lampard and Cole included). We finished 6th in the league, and rightly so. We couldnt handle the grit needed to take on a resurgent Tottenham and then, a well spirited Citeh.
We won the CL though (luckily so, that was one helluva night I'll be honest) so instead of fixing issues, the management decided to ignore them completely. And threw money at it, hoping it would go away. Because "why fix something that isnt broken?" just like how Ancelotti did the double in his first year in-charge, and again ignored the problems the squad faced then. (which Chelsea has been facing for close to 4 years now, no squad depth. At all. Ever since Scolari sold all the fringe players Mourinho had, which was 3 players for every position) RDM was a lucky man to win the CL and the FA Cup, and by no means a master tactician or charismatic persona. He just stroked the egos of the older players, and it paid off when he took over immediately (Lampard and Cole started more games, Terry brought back right after injury)
The squad now has no depth. Completely reliant on Mata in every single game. Hazard and Oscar have worn out. Azpi is showing signs of tiredness. Ba and Torres havent clicked because the midfield, talented as it may be, has been playing game after game since August last year, and is completely burned out.
Yet the fans will be fickle about it, and blame FSW. I hate him too, but he isnt the problem. I expected a trophyless season this year since I wanted it to be a transitional phase, with the squad coming of age and showing some depth. But none of that has happened.
Instead, we have a bunch of tired legs which have to play close to 10 more games. And win every one.

Pfttt. Aguero apologizes to Luiz. - We Ain't Got No History
Luiz replied:
Aye, so the player says he did something that was wrong and apologizes, but the ref didn't think so. Nor did the FA.
=========
David Moyes owns Wenger.
Asked whether he saw the incident between Wilshere and Mirallas at half-time, Moyes responded:
