They looked brave and united, as they celebrated beating Fergie's 'greatest ever side' 2-1.

Greatest ever side....................

How does "one of his best SQUADS!!!!!' turn into his greatest side

Someone was asking waaay back re Chelsea's football icon winner from the first year.

Just heard today that Carl Magnay has been handed a one year extension to his contract at the Bridge.

Also Joe Cole has won Chelsea's POTY award tonight. Great for Joe, but 90% of fans on the chat pages voted for Carvalho, so perhaps Mugabe was counting the votes!

[Norf Tyrone]

All season ticket holders, and members vote on it. That's why no-one can understand it.

A straw poll, if you like, on the chat forums has Carvalho at about 70% of the vote.

For the record Carvalho got players player of the year.

John Terry off with shoulder injury

His nose doesnt look good either

[Square Ball]

from the BBC

1559: And another rumour... the medical team at Stamford Bridge reckon John Terry may have broken his arm, which is heartbreaking news for the Chelsea skipper with the Champions League final coming up.

[Square Ball]

Chelsea skipper John Terry is apparently back at Stamford Bridge following his flying visit to hospital for treatment on his suspected broken arm 

[ExiledGael]

Chelsea also confirmed after the match that Drogba had jarred his knee late in the game. Avram quote - "We've got ten days now but it doesn't look good". Terry spoke two and he expects to be back to normal in a few days unbelievably. Avram said "That's his nature but we'll have to see what the doctors say".

[Norf Tyrone]

That's that then for the PL anyhow. Yesterday was a micrcosm of the whole season as far as I am concerned.

Once again totally dominated the game, but couldn't get a second goal to kill the game off. It looked like the players knew United had the second and switched off for the last 5-10 minutes.

The big issue from yesterday was the injuries to Terry and Drogba. Need the two of them ready for Russia, especially with Carvalho struggling.

Anyhow....preperation for next season has begun. Signing number one just announced...

Strange really. With Belletti just arrived, Ivanovic signed and Fererria with a 5 year contract a few months back that's effectivelly 4 right backs!

[Minder]

Boswinga would be an upgrade on Belletti and Ferreira though Norf.

Boswinga would be an upgrade on Belletti and Ferreira though Norf.

Maybe he would, as I have seen nothing of him. However it's obvious someone needs to go, but who?

Ferreria...unlikely as he was given a new 5 year contract in January.
Ivanovic....just signed for £10 so unlikely.
Belletti....not that long at the club either. However he has been exposed as been very weak defensivelly, so he may be the one to go.
