    Chelsea win the Conference League Winners.

    The story would have been a shock if it was anything other than they won it!

    Realistically, PL teams winning this tournament should be an annual event!

    Commentators bigging it up that they are the only team to win all Euro Club comps….like winning the third division.

    It's a bit like McCann winning the league 1 title. Should never have been in it anyway.

    36 teams started this tournament .
    Chelsea's player budget was more than the other 35 teams put together .

    It really really isn’t. It’s a chance for smaller clubs across Europe to play in a multi-nation competition. I’ve seen some cracking matches in the ECL in recent years.

    Which is fine...until someone with the spending power of Chelsea turns up making a complete mockery of it.

    Similar to brum in league one. It's going to happen occasionally.

    No it wasn’t. It set up for those countries to compete and get further in European competition. It has succeeded in that aim.

    Having already ruined the larger countries football leagues they are now doing the same to the smaller ones.
    UAFA are giving a few teams in each league a load more money which gives them a competitive edge every season.

    It was setup to accommodate 30+ countries without Champions League or Europa league, after CL is dominated by top 5 leagues 4+1 teams, and even 6 for England for example. UEFA president needs to get vote from all countries, so he needed a bait for others too.

    31 countries are not represented in CL or EL last year, and 11 of these able to get in to ECL. FYI there are 55 countries in UEFA. So 35 of them is covered.

    Most iconic, and, the best ever goal scored at Wembley. No, I don't care, you can rattle off tens, hundreds, thousands if you want. It is the best goal, EVER, scored at Wembley.
