Superb night. Unbelievable that one can be in Moscow and then back home in such a short space of time. No Ruskie cemeteries for me though - the beer won the toss up!

Felt a tad sorry for Terry. Drogba, what an idiot. Good game, enjoyed it, nice to be neutral.

Well it was a great night, good game and Chelsea were unlucky, felt sorry for Terry, very cruel to decide a match on penalties, obviously delighted for United and the Cup stays North of the Watford Gap!! Go on United!!!!

And now Ronaldo wants to leave Manyoo for a "dream" move to Madrid. Loyalty be damned. Refuse to sell him and let him rot in the reserves, i say!
