    Just look at these cup finales,

    Carling Cup

    Better team: Arsenal
    Team won: Chelsea

    FA Cup

    Better team: Manu
    Team won: Chelsea

    Champions League

    Better team: Liverpool
    Team won: AC Milan

    Championship final

    Better team: West Brom
    Team won: Derby

    Im not making any excuses but I just wanna tell u these interesting stats...I guess its one of those funny things in football, but its so weird that it happened so much this season in Finals

    you wasnt the better team in the FA cup final. every one of your shots seemed to be when rooney was offside and yet he still missed the target.

    i guess thats how good modern footballers have become.

    they can take one chance and sumtimes that enough to win a game

    Chelsea definitely deserved to win it by taking their chances and we certainly didn't but what im saying is we were the better side in my opinion by creating more oppurtunities

    trust you to say when a dutch player came on lol

    Yeh Chelseas full squad should've lost to our reserve squad.

    100's of millions and you bring home domestic cups. Money well spent?

    I think not[​IMG]

    It happens often, but it's just football. It's like as if the better team on the day loses because the team that won deserved it more throughout the season.

    It's hard to choose which team's better when you're asleep.

    I know it happens but it was weird that it happened so many times this season in Finals...I guess its that the teams that win just have bodies in their own half and just attack in the counter...I guess football is rly boring these days by the way they are setting out

    I'd say Chelsea were the better side in the FA cup easily. But like Hudge says it was enough to make The House of Lords look lively.
