Between Manchester United And Chelsea, Who Had A Better Season? by try69: 6:21am On May 16, 2013
Well..I and my friends engaged in an instant discussion on BBM group chat after chelsea's triumph yesterday night.


As a blue fan I was like "chelsea had a more successful season for winning a european trophy compared to Man U who won a domestic one".


My Man U friends were quick to bash me saying "The EPL is more a gracious trophy to the EUROPA".


I needed to bring this here to get a wider view point.


My analysis scale was UCL - EUROPA - DoMEsTIC. Just like PRESIDENT(UCL) - VICE PRESIDENT(EUROPA) - GOVERNOR (DOMESTIC) grin grin


What's your opinion?

Of course everyone wants to win the UCL but when one is outta the UCL and has the chance to vie for the EUROPA, they gladly go for it.

So in your words, A european trophy is way less a trophy to a domestic league title? I beg to disagree

Now that chelsea has won it, it is now a consolation?..smh


The last time I checked, the teams that play europa still consist of the best teams cos if say a club like barce drops outta the UCL in the first round, they would play to win the EUROPA with all they have. So winning the EUROPA is more than equivalent to winning the EPL cos u would still be @ loggerheads against top teams..Apart from the top four in the EPL and maybe, whose teams are better than EUROPA teams?

Bros we are not comparing UCL and EUROPA here but "the EUROPA LEAGUE and the ENGLISH LEAGUE".

Answer me this simple question, would you say a europa league vied for by selected teams in europe is a lesser title compared to the english league which is just competed for by "just" english teams?

Manchester united had a better season than chelsea. No top team takes europa league seriously. Chelsea never did, the reason why players like Ake, moses and even lampard were fielded in many of the games.

Athletico Madrid rested their important players ahead of a very tough opponent in the league. You wonder whu they were thrashed at home.

A club president even refer to it as a messy competition. Don't delude yourself, United season was better.

Chelsea fan

Most def, d league trophy is more prestigious than Europa!


Nevertheless, Chelsea winning d Europa cup is particularly significant - cos they are the first team in Europe to win d UCL and Europa back to back! So, in a way, they had a fantastic season!


As to who had a better season, I think a conclusion should be based on expectations before the start of d season!

Did Man U crave 2 win the league? Most certainly!

Did Chelsea believe they 'll be in Europa League or even win it? Most certainly not!

Thus, on that score, I think Man U had a better season...but that's not to say Chelsea flopped!

Man Utd had a better season. This is because they achieved their set objective which was to win the EPL. On the other hand, Chelsea did not have the intention of playing in the Europa league. They had no choice but to play in the Europa league after being dumped outta the UCL.

Whooped them all season but they (united) ended up winning the trophy. Which one pains most? Whopping ass or losing out to the bigger boys? Pathetic!!! that's the best chelsea fans can say. Keep CONSOLING ur pathetic selves with ILLUSIONS. Cheers!!!
