Chelsea (N) | FA Cup Final | Post Match Thread

[kippaxchris]

I cant believe we have won a cup double. I didn't think we would win anything this season & the League Cup would have been enough for me. Absolutely brilliant, well done boys!

Is Palmer the ugliest fucker ever, worse than Fernadez the rag ?

Mr chadwick begs to differ..

Customary "Khusanov had a bad debut" comment

Fuck right off

He's fucking immense

 

[ysmsa]

Antoine Tueart.

Dennis Semenyo ;-)

 

[TinFoilHat]

We went 35 years without winning a major trophy.

I think Mowbray was exactly right.

The Thomas Cook Trophy doesn't count?

:(

 

[wolviedinho]

Brilliant.

Khaldoon don’t look worried about 115.

 

[Bournemouth Blue]

Chelsea were hungrier than us, but the only time I thought they would score was right after we scored. Looked much better when Cherki came on, and Kovacic did really well, Rodri isn’t quite up there yet.
Two blings and still a chance for a third, but I am happy whatever.

 

[Shaggy]

He said that?

He sure did, Sturidge loved it, then a bit later it sounded like he said to Rooney "You're not well"

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

He's the most gormless lucking fucker in football.

Am I missing something? Twice the commentators said City are the first team to go unbeaten in domestic competitions….

Thought Arsenal did it.

Not bad for a team in transition.

Isn’t it sad how football is becoming like tag rugby or something. Any sort of physicality and everyone wants to see penalties. It’s becoming theatre like shit. Fuck Chelsea. Fuck the FA. Up the blues

 

[Tevez City]

Congrats to the boys

Lets keep winning and finish the season on a high

 

[Blue_eyes]

Off to mow my lawn now in full City gear. Chuffed to bits. My lucky third shirt from 2013-14.

Hope its the front lawn and your surrounded by rag neighbours.......do all the council verges too if so.

 

[Mr Blue Moon]

Erl soaking it in

 

[half & half derby scarf]

Looked a lot better with Kovacic on. He changed the game really.

 

[Sky Blue]

Knew it would be a tight game. Goal worthy of winning any final. 2 Trophies and outside chance of another. Great to be a blue. ps-Shearer annoyed the fuck out of me today backing plucky underdogs Chelsea.

 

[Vienna_70]

We didn't win "anything"? I literally saw players lift trophies for us. Proper Raggish to say what's a major trophy or not - the '99 trophy you could argue was the most major, if we didn't win that then, we wouldn't be where we are today

It’s not a major trophy, though is it?

That’s what Mowbray was talking about and it’s the general consensus, whatever you might think.

 

[jimharri]

Lots of saltiness on 'x' tonight. Bless.

Pep will be delighted and also relieved to end his run of FA Cup final losses.

Winning both domestic cups and all 12 games along the way will stand the inexperienced City players in good stead. Trafford, O'Reilly, Guéhi, Khusanov, Nico González, Cherki and Semenyo won their first trophies as City players in 2026. The majority of them will be big components of the City team moving forward.

The game wasn't a classic. Chelsea did well defensively, but didn't offer much in attack.
