An appalling first half from Chelsea. Our dreadful defending has only been matched by the awful attacking of Benfica. There's been a couple of times when our defending has been so bad and I'm thinking "Well we deserve to go a goal down for this" and they go and match our defenders in the embarrassment stakes by skying the ball when shooting.

How Oscar got a yellow, when Ivanovic and their two players got off I don't know.

Massively happy to go in at half time at 0-0. It's not deserved, but I'll accept it.

Reckon if we are to win this it's going to be Rafa's 3rd trophy won in England with a penalty shoot out.

For crap ar$ed, lucky wins, nothing beats last years CL win. Not even tonight.

Thought we were the better side in the second half. Just about deserved it. Brain explosion from Azpilicueta for the pen. You just aren't allowed to stick your arm up like that.

Absolutely awesome header from Ivanovic. It was well behind his position and he read it perfectly to shift position and meet it perfectly. I'll forgive him now for Swansea.

I'll give John Terry something, when he makes a decision to look like a bell in full kit, boots and shin-pads to pick up a trophy after not playing, he bloody sticks to it!

Didn't hear of Rooney getting any stick for being in his kit on Sunday.

I thought Hazard and Ba being in their suits to go up for the trophy looked retarded.

I'm still laughing at Rooney, to be fair. Even Fergie couldn't hug him when he seen him in full kit.

I don't think you necessarily have to go up in a suit, just go up in a tracksuit rather than full kit and equipment.

While I can see why he'd want to be in the kit (still think it's stupid), the shinpads baffle me. A bit like Lindegaard wearing gloves to collect his medal on Sunday - pointless.

Chelsea had at least four keepers in full kit and gloves on the field celebrating. I was on the lookout for comedians trying to geg in on the celebrations.

Guarantee if a supporter managed to sneak past security in a full kit and was celebrating with the players on the pitch he'd be called a 'hero' by some morons. Yet a player who has helped the team in someway, albeit not on the day, win a trophy, wears a kit and celebrates is slated for it???!!!

Watched what? United or Chelsea? Didn't see Chelsea as I was working, but I seen United and couldn't believe how quick Rooney had changed.
