I’m not really a Chelsea fan, but since they’re the only English team left, I hope they win.

I’d rather they win than someone like PSG or Real Madrid. It feels better when the trophy comes home.

Getting in early with your Prediction League pick, @TheSkipper? Fair play. That kind of planning might give you the edge this time.

I honestly thought Real Madrid would be too strong for PSG, but they took a real beating. Shows how unpredictable football can be. Just when you think you’ve got it sussed, it throws you a curveball.

Chelsea thoroughly deserved the win against PSG. The French tournament favourites were blown away in the first half by a Chelsea side that employed the perfect tactic by going direct to get behind PSG's left hand side. PSG just couldn't deal with it.

PSG were absolutely shell shocked at the end of the first half, but to their credit they came out in the second half & tried to make a game of it, however Chelsea were resolute in defence, & their goalkeeper played a blinder with some vital saves.

As the second half wore on the PSG players became frustrated & commited petty fouls. The ugly scenes at the end of the match took away from what was a famous Chelsea victory & a triumph for the English Premier League.

Although I'm pleased that an English team won, I'm still not convinced that a tournament such as this is in the best interests of domestic league football. The tournament is too long & involves too many teams.

The Chelsea & PSG players have to recover now for the start of the new season. I wouldn't be surprised if their form suffered at the beginning of their league campaigns. It will be interesting to see if that is the case.

I am pleased for Chelsea as they represented England, and I am sure @super_pie will be happy as he likes them too. I almost changed his username once to "Superski" during the Roman Abramovich era. Thankfully, a combination of bringing @callum2569 and Notts looking up kept him a magpie.

It's a great result for Chelsea, but it highlights just how much of a star Cole Palmer is.
