CONGRATS CHELSEA!

[dan80]

CHELSEA FOUNDED IN 1905 AND WON THE CL ON 19/05!.
Actually I was supporting the blues today and I suppose that a title for British club would be better than the German side taking into count the number of titles that Bayern have and ours... Well done gentlemen ...Congrats on being the the 5th English and the first London club to win the Champions League...

CHAMPIONS CHAT
Posted on: Sun 20 May 2012
What a night. As the celebrations continued way into the evening, the newly-crowned European champions gave their verdict on what it all meant to them.
Here are a selection of quotes from some of the Chelsea heroes, with more to follow as the dust settles on our first ever Champions League success.
Petr Cech
'Finally. It's been eight years. We lost four years ago and we hoped for another chance. The chance came and in a moment when nobody expected it. We grabbed the chance.
'There were six penalties and I went the right way all the time, and saved three, so I was well prepared.
'This is amazing, it's incredible we finally got it.
'I said prior to the game that if we win the Cup I don't want a cake, and this is the best present I can get. It's a dream come true.'
Gary Cahill
'When I picked up the injury against Barcelona I feared I wouldn't make the game but I am thankful to the staff that got David and me back.
'It's absolutely amazing. The team has stuck together throughout everything and we've won two trophies.
'People thought we were dead and buried against Napoli, against Barcelona, but we kept coming back. Bayern played some fantastic football, they had a lot of corners, but we defended well and it's all paid off.
'I made the move to win trophies, I signed for five ad a half years, and have won two in six months. If you told me at the start of the season I would win the Champions League I would think you were joking, it's unbelievable.'
Salomon Kalou
'It was destiny for us to win it. It was also team spirit and togetherness, put it together and it's a wonderful moment for us to win the Cup.'
Juan Mata
'We are very happy. We believed in ourselves, and this is what it means to play for Chelsea. We've made history.'
Ryan Bertrand
'Crazy. I'm still waiting for someone to pinch me now. I tried to relax and go to sleep in the afternoon but had all these images flashing through my mind.
'I can't believe it, it hasn't sunk in. looking at the experienced players, I am so happy for them, I didn't want to go out and let anyone down, especially the manager, and these guys have got what they've always been fighting for.
'Since I came in Ashley has welcomed me with open arms. He's the best left-back in the world.'
John Terry
'Now I know what the fans go through on a weekly basis. It's incredible, we've waited so long for this and to finally be here, it's incredible.
'It makes all those disappointments along the way worth it, it's an amazing feeling. It was tough for all of us but the lads were immense.
'The club has strived for this, the owner has kept believing in us, a big hats off to him from the players.'

Chelsea striker Didier Drogba has told his team-mates that he is leaving the club this summer and says he is preparing "for a great leap into the unknown" away from Stamford Bridge.

Drogba, 34, scored a dramatic late equaliser for the Blues in Saturday's Champions League final before netting the crucial penalty in the shootout as he ended the club's long wait for a Champions League trophy.

But it seems the Ivory Coast international's decisive contributions in Munich were his last for the club, as he is planning "another adventure" after eight years in West London.

"We [he and his team-mates] will not be together next season," Drogba is quoted as telling France Football magazine. "As I have decided to leave, I wanted to tell them to their faces.

"They made me break down. I found it hard to admit that it was finished with me and the club. But I don't envisage sitting on the bench watching others play at a time when the club is looking at putting together a new team.

"So there we go, I am readying myself for a great leap into the unknown. It will be another adventure."

Drogba's team-mates chanted for him to stay in front of jubilant Chelsea fans during Sunday's victory parade, but the striker's future now appears certain to be elsewhere.

He has been heavily tipped to join former strike partner Nicolas Anelka in China, where the Frenchman is currently player-manager at big-spending Shanghai Shenhua.

Hazard confirms Chelsea move

http://www.goal.com/en/news/11/transfer ... elsea-move

The 21-year-old Lille sensation has finally revealed his next destination, opting for the Champions League winners instead of joining Manchester United or Manchester City

Eden Hazard has confirmed that he will join Chelsea from Lille this summer.

The Belgium international star's announcement comes after Goal.com revealed earlier on Monday that he had made his choice to move to Stamford Bridge rather than Manchester United or Manchester City.

The 21-year-old wrote on Twitter: "I'm signing for the Champions League winner," in reference to the Blues' triumph over Bayern Munich on May 19.

He had Tweeted earlier in the day: "Good afternoon guys. I made up my mind. See you later. Thanks," before waiting several hours to elaborate on his choice.

Hazard, Ligue 1 player of the season for the past two years after his exploits with Lille, is believed to have changed his mind over his future as a result of Chelsea's European glory.

Goal.com understands that personal terms have been agreed and that the winger should sign this week.

The London-bound attacker scored 21 goals in 47 matches for the French side in 2011-12 although he and his team-mates failed to reclaim their Championnat crown.
