    Good game, close and exciting in it's closeness, but I was a tad disappointed. Maybe because we we were not involved, can't say why.
    Truly expected more from Bayern, and Dortmund a tad unlucky. With Goetze on the pitch, could have been very different.
    Don't know how Ribery didn't get red card, quite deliberate elbow.
    None of the "superstars" really shone brightly, it was left to Robben to steal the show.
    The German style of quick passing and good control seems like exactly what we can stifle. Last years Barca would have rolled either of this years finalists.
    Good luck to Bayern they deserve their win after such agony and good sportsmanship last year.
    Oh, and Klopp will do me anytime at Chelsea.

    Ah yes, but perfectly acceptable in the eyes of UEFA. Don,t forget that this is one of the group of clubs that UEFA drool over.

    thought it was a good final, Munich deserved to win.
    The atmosphere was top notch
    Certainly wouldn't mind Klopp as a manager

    Thought Dortmund were the better side. Man for man they were better than Bayern but couldn't finish their chances. The turning point was penalty though, had Dante gone off there's no way Bayern would have won that game.

    Great play from both teams! I thought it was going the same way of the previous year. How Chelsea Won that one..... I thought Bayern was going the same way, but they proved me wrong. and won it in their style..... Congratz to them.

    Not sure whether it was due to Gotze missing or that Bayern are a cut above, but wasn't THAT impressed with Dortmund. They played the classic underdog opening 30 minutes and then did very little thereafter.

    Baring some woeful finishing and some good goal keeping Bayern should have gone in two up at half time. Dortmund offered nothing in the second half and were lucky to get a pen out of noweher to even get back into it.

    Lewandoski is absolute class but will be gone in the summer so without him and Gotze they may struggle more next year. Hummels looked over rated for me too. Albeit one game, but he didn't seem to marshall that defence very well, was sloppy in places and made a rick in the first half that Robben didn't punish.

    Overall though, great final to watch.
