The sight of John Terry weeping uncontrollably at the final whistle summed up the somber mood in chelski camp. It also shows how important the game was. And trust me, they would love to win the Champions League title more then the EPL title.

But hey, that's the Beautiful Game for you.

JM aka 'the special one' may not have seen anything beautiful at Anfield. On a night where his all conquering Blues were favorites to reach their first champions league final, it was US, THE REDS who had the last laugh.

I cannot believe he actually has the cheek to lamented after the match that the best team lost. He also lambasted the linesman for awarding the goal. Perhaps Mr Know It All should point the finger at himself. Dubbed as the one with the divine touch, JM was completely clueless as to how to break down RB resolute red.

After the game, I suppose he must be doing a lot of pondering on his way home. Should he have started with Robben from the start to add more width to the attack?

Should he have activated Plan B when his players could not find a way through the Great Red Wall of Liverpool?

But hang on... in the first place; did he have a plan B?

Was it a case of overconfident? Was it because they suffered from a hangover over the weekend?

So many questions, so few answers. Not that it mattered.

The plain truth is Chelski's dream of a treble is OVER and WE have reached our first Euro cup final in 20 long years. A spot that we belong, a cup that we used to own.

The fatal mistake made by chelski was that they should have killed the game at Stamford Bridge, not Anfield. They caused their own downfall. On the surface, the goalless draw seems to looked like a good result for them but the fact is Liverpool had the advantage. After we scored the early goal, our confidence must be soaring. If we can stop Juve from scoring at Turin, why can't we stop Chelski from scoring at Anfield?

Mourinho may be "The Special One". But to me, Benitez is SIMPLE THE ONE!
