this could be historic right? no one else has ever accomplished it afaik

Rafa could go down in Chelsea folklore if he wins this

I hope Chelsea lose this with dignity

Its going to be a tough game...

I'll cheer for Benfica. I'm still annoyed at David Luiz.

Really hope Hazard makes a miracle recovery

Hope Chelsea wins it now, although whichever team I support these days lose

Eden Hazard out of Europa League final, says Rafael Benitez

Benfica favorites now tbh.

When's the final of the worse competition of Europe?

tomorrow

I think it will be an interesting match unless Ivanovic gifts away a winner. Chelsea seem to be superior in everything, 31 goals scored to Benfica's 19 (numbers may be wrong) so chelsea have done brilliant under Rafa. But i still hope benfica will put one or two in the net on the counter which chelsea wont be able to handle.

Couldn't give a f**k about the whining Portuguese as although I like Benfica...Forza Chelsea.

Want Rafa to win an EL and shut the sheep Chelsea fans who are all in their bohemian "RAFA OUT" phase and trend. Plus they deserve a trophy anyway.

I supported them in the CL final last year as this time it won't be any different.

Will be cheering for Benfica. The Chlsea sc*m don't deserve anything with the way they've been treating Rafa.

They will be cheering for Di Matteo and Mourinho while Chelsea would be 4-0 up.

quite true

True, but seeing Rafa with a Europa League in his resume alongside his famous CL win, would satisfy me enough. Think about it Messiah. Him winning would be in someway winning over his doubters no? Then he can leave with a middle finger directed towards the Bridge.

100% agree.

For quite a while now as a Liverpool fan i've had to put up with my fair share of "your just a deluded scouser!"

Surely this 'deluded' tag should attach firmly to the Chelsea support the way they have behaved this season, and it is the majority giving Rafa stick btw.

I heard one guy this morning say "its the players doing everything, not Benitez" even though Mata, Luiz & Torres have made marked improvements since he arrived from RDM who that comment could be made for with more of a base for an argument.

I hope they are pumped tonight and Terry kits out and celebrates with Benfica

Agree with Arquitecto, he needs to win this to shut his doubters up and to leave the club in style. Besides, having UEFA Europa League win on resume will do Rafa more good than harm.
