    And he missed a penalty against Man Utd in the final! Bet England win the WC without him...

    Mourinho says that the penalty "killed the game". Yawn.

    Didn't really say that though. He said there wasn't much between the sides until they got the second goal from the penalty, then they were dominant. Didn't say it was a bad call. Thought by Mourinho's standards, that was a very gracious interview.

    He used the words "the penalty killed the game". Well it probably wouldn't have if his team hadn't been so bloody negative.

    They were at risk of diving in all night and in the end it happened due to them sitting deep. I see your point though.

    Being asked about seeing Courtois in the final really wound him up though, that was great. :)

    Yes that did rile him a bit. Thought Atletico were just a little too strong for Chelsea tonight. Should be a great final.

    We will surely be seeing Courtois in the PL next season.

    I sort of wanted them to win...because losing the final would be funnier.

    Delighted that Atletico are through to the final. What a carnival it will be all the way from Madrid to Lisbon!!!!!! Hope Benfica can make it to the Europa final against Sevilla (another under-rated Spanish team)

    You would probably have more empathy for Chelsea if Mourinho was not in charge and they played more attacking football. I didn't feel sorry for Chelsea tonight.

    I'm very happy with that result. Different ball game when parking the bus isn't an option. Mourinho actually gave a 'normal' interview. Hope Atlectico go on and win.

    Not sure that gesture of goodwill was in the best of taste. Inaccurate too. I mean, if one is going to be vulgar, at least aim the dubious compliment at both parents. :)

    But they're going to surely one of he and Cech in that instance...no way they can keep both on the roster. Not a bad problem to have, though.

    And a Madrid derby being played within an easy day's drive of Madrid? It's going to be mad.

    Strange hearing Simeone talking with Salas's voice this morning on Sky...David made it to the Champions' League before Saints. :)
