yeh I was there, it was a great football match and i think in fairness if we had taken are chances and didn't get some poor decisions we would have won it comfortably.
We lost with honour though and from what I saw being an arsenal season ticket holder that was by far the best football i have seen all season!

To me, the key points of the match, which had a bearing on the result were -
For the first 20 minutes the Arsenal midfield ran the game, Chelsea could not get a kick.
Chelsea's equalizer stunned a young Arsenal team and the balance of play began to change.
The young Arsenal player that kicked Terry in the head, was not seen again in the match. It obviously had an effect on him. He had been running the defence crazy, but then disappeared after that.
As the game went on, Chelsea with the stronger and fitter players, were always going to come good. Allied, with the class of their players, the Arsenal youngsters were always going to struggle.
Finally, Mourino got his tactics wrong in the first half. They played too narrow and had no width. Once Robben came on, it changed the whole game. He provided the width and ability to run at the Chelsea defence.

Am a Man Utd fan and was cheering for Arsenal (no matter how much it hurt) purely cos he mostly stuck with playing the young lads. Not using them to get to the final then playing an entire first team to secure a trophy.
And i really didn't want chelsea to get any silverware this year

Arsenal'kids team and Chelsea's multinational captains team but kids played much much more agressive and fairly and outstandingly if refree did't allow Drogba's offside goal ,they could have won. Sorry for Terry.

I think they should have won because my (Southern) partner said they should have! ... and I don't argue with her because I don't get what I want later!.
Seriously, I think they should have kicked seven shades of s*it out of Chelsea because everyone hates Chelsea!!
I'm a ManU supporter myself and therefore entitled to criticise!.

oh mi god did you see John Terry go to ground like that after being kicked int he head, i've never seen anything like that before in my life. It's good to see he recovered could have been more serious than that......

Easily, but that's essentially because Chelsea shouldn't win anything.
