Two very good goals from Joao Pedro in his first start for Chelsea, against his boyhood club.

PSG absolutely destroying Real. All set up for a Chelsea 1-0 smash and grab in the final.

[Pepe the Horseman]

Fantastic performance by Chelsea, didn't give PSG a sniff. Cole Palmer was superb and Joao Pedro already looking like a really good signing. Think they'll be challenging for the title this season.

Agree, amazing performance, well done Chelsea.

Well, he's already got the Chelsea arrogance down to a tee if what he reportedly said to Luis Enrique is true. Also been coached by Drogba on how to fall over under minimal contact.

I suspect the after-effects of this tournament will scupper that, but we'll see.

Has John Terry lost his "least appropriate Chelsea trophy celebration attendee" crown?

Doubt it, given they buy near enough a whole team every week.

Two ways to look at it. Will the lack of a summer break mean that the players are knackered when the season starts, or will this just be an extended pres-season so they retain their fitness and be raring to go and in-form when the season starts?

Apparently he compared him unfavourably to Mikel Arteta.

Enrique may also an arrogant cock but at least he's got the medals to back it up.
